About Fun Town Fire Academy

The Fun Town Fire Academy defies conventional theme park categories. It's not a dark ride, a playground or a show. Perhaps my six-year-old daughter best categorized it when she declared, "it's like a challenge on Survivor!" Up to four people work together as a team to power a rather large fire engine down a track, where a "burning" building awaits. Four teams are competing to see which can get to the fire, put it out by soaking a target with water, then get back to the starting line first. -- Last edited by Robert Niles

Fun competitive activity - we loved it, and all the other "firefighters" were giggling and laughing too. The line was short and moved quickly. - Robyn A.

Really fun interactive competition/game. Adults should be prepared for quite a workout between the pump-propelled fire truck and the pumped water hoses, your forearms will be sore! - Jamie Smith
