NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas – There’s a
new puppy in town that’s large and in charge. Schatze, Schlitterbahn’s lovable
dachshund pup who’s appeared for several seasons on billboards and TV
commercials makes his mascot debut this summer in his own area. Schatze has
taken over a park complete with a root beer stand, ice cream parlor, car wash
and a magical castle that all have been transformed into his own puppy
playground.
Attractions
include:
Schatze’s Magical Meet n’ Greet
The
beloved pup is available for hugs and photos inside a one-of-a-kind magical
castle located in the center of Schatze’s Central Park. Schatze is available
noon – 5:00 p.m. daily.
Suds & Splash Car Wash
Schatze
has taken over the neighborhood car wash and transformed it into a frolicking
kid-friendly oasis of fun. This walk-thru car wash features misters, soakers,
dangling wiper cloths and blow dryers.
Ice
Cream Parlor Slides
Climb
into a pint-sized old fashioned ice cream parlor then take a sweet slide down
back to the ground
Water Playground
Kids of
all ages can splash their way through a variety of the park’s “decorative”
fountains. But be cautious, you never know when the park’s fire hydrants and
sprinkler system may “accidentally” erupt.
Root Beer Slide
Step
into a decorative root beer mug then enjoy a slide as you are poured back to the
ground.
“Schatze’s
Central Park perfectly compliments our six additional world-class kids’ areas at
the park,” explained Darren Hill, Schlitterbahn Waterpark Resort’s general
manager. “Not only does Schlitterbahn boast more kid’s areas than any other
waterpark in the world, but we are also proud to premier the first kid-friendly
car wash attraction.”
