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.
Busch Gardens’ Entertainment department supplies the scares in the house while we’re operating the outside. We staff team members at the entrance of the house as well as inside to assist guests if they need to exit. Make sure to come say “hi” to us when you visit.
We all love this time of year because we get to do something completely different. Operating a haunted house is a bit of a change from scanning a pool. The lifeguards get to relax a little and watch guests have fun, so we really enjoy our time at Busch Gardens.
Come see us this fall … if you aren’t too scared.
