    We plan to go to Wild Rivers this upcoming weekend (we get free admission due to our Leogland AP's).

    It has been a few years since I went to Raging Waters....

    Knott's is close, and you can go to dinner after the park, many choices... Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant, T.G.I. Friday's, Johnny Rockets, Amber Waves or one of the two Dinner Theaters, Medieval Times or the Pirates Dinner Theater.

    Raging Waters in San Dimas (IMHO) is better than Knott's Soak City. (I've done both). Raging Waters has more rides ... more slides ... more fun.

    But the convenience to other stuff there at Knott's makes Soak City a good contender.

    Also seems to be more expensive, less free tubes, food was so-so.

    But it was fun to see parts of the old Lion Country Safari (now being used for Summer camp type programs).

    I think I went to Raging Waters in the early 80's.
