Funding a Water park - Leisure centre
Remembering a large aquatic and leisure center in the town of my youth (Wave pool, water slide, olympic lap pool, etc.), I was curious how translatable the idea is in today's market. How do you gather funding partners for a large project like this? Would the city contribute to such a large project? How much capital would be required to get this off the ground?

Don't know about funding, but Auburn, AL has had one for years, and now it seems to have been abandoned. I would love to see it back in use. It had a wave pool, lazy river, water slides, a kiddie area, and a retail space for selling both food and water related items. Would you think about relocating and getting this park back in operation?
