Water Country USA at Howl-O-Scream?

by Cynthia - Park Operations Manager
Comments

When people hear that I work at Water Country USA they usually ask, “What do you do now that the park is closed?” We do a lot, actually.

This time of year, team members from Water Country USA have the fun job of helping with Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens. We get the chance to operate one of the haunted houses, Bitten.

I love this area because you get two haunted houses and a haunted field but only wait in one line. We also have team members scattered throughout the rest of the park operating rides, shows and helping keep the park clean.

Beat the Heat

This summer has been a hot one, but it's nice to work at a water park, because when it gets too hot, you can always cool off in one of our many pools. The water always looks so refreshing when it's warm.

Our Shallow Water Guards and Lifeguards wear bathing suits and can enjoy cooling off throughout the day.

Hello, my name is Cynthia. I am the Park Operations Manager at Water Country USA. This year will be my 18th season with Busch Gardens, but my first year at Water Country USA. I started working at Busch Gardens in 1993 as an Area Host/Ride Operator in Grimm's Hollow. From there, I continued to move up into different leadership positions throughout high school and college. In May 1999, I graduated from Christopher Newport University and was lucky enough to be offered a full-time position in December of that year. Recently I have returned to school to pursue my Masters in Business.
