We’ve told you about one of the most over-the-top, thrilling watercoasters in the country that’s right here in Wisconsin, but we know that kind of adrenaline rush isn’t for everyone. What if you’re the type of family looking to cool off, but not break the bank – or your neck? It turns out that a trip to the Dells isn’t the only way to cool off and have some fun in the sun and water. There are a number of local town pools for all kinds of family fun, and one of the very best is in the town of Weston about 12 miles southeast of Wausau.
This fabulous town aquatic center has everything you and your family could ever want or need for a fun day of cooling off and playing in the water. From a dip in the water to some time relaxing in the sun, you’ll love kicking back and having a blast at this super reasonable, family-friendly spot.
