History
The chain was a brainchild behind Sam Packard, a scientist who wanted to have kids be taught science a fun way, so back in 1980 he went to his local waterpark and he was amazed, so he founded SlidePlanet, it took a year and a half to raise funds.

The location in Richmond was a success, that he bought land in Panama City, Florida to build a second waterpark, by 1985, they had 5 waterparks, and by 1990, they had 11.
