Wet'n Wild Emerald Pointe pushes back 2020 opening date

Water park officials say because of the pandemic, they won't open up on May 23 like they normally have over the past years.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Greensboro's water park will delay its opening because of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

According to a post on the Emerald Point website, Wet'n Wild waterpark will not open on May 23, like it was originally scheduled to. 

However, the park hasn't announced a new opening date and said it's too early to decide on one. 

"While we look forward to welcoming each of you to Wet'n Wild Emerald Pointe this season, there is a great deal of uncertainty for us all surrounding the current COVID-19 situation.

Our highest priority remains the safety of all of our Team Members and Guests, and we’re closely following the guidelines set forth by federal, state and local government officials and health experts," the post says in part. 

They're also offering to extend 2020 season pass holder's memberships through the end of the 2021 season. For more information and answers to frequently asked questions click here to visit their website.
