Park History

Wild Adventures was sold at an auction to the Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation in September 2007. The park was originally owned and operated by founder Kent Buescher who started the park in 1996 on a plot of farmland. What began as a small petting zoo has grown into a large theme park and adjoining water park.
