It was developed by the Schlitterbahn family from Texas where they have 3 parks
http://www.schlitterbahn.com/
They are getting huge incentives to develop their park.
Its in the NASCAR Kansas Speedway area. The Spring & Fall races are off-season, but the track has other races & events in-season.
Other than World's of Fun & The Great Lodge, St Louis is the closest attraction.
Next door is a Cabales, Legends entertainment/shopping district, T-Bones minor league baseball and Sporting KC professional soccer. Not to mention it has the second Nebraska Furniture Mart. (Better price on my Macs + interest free financing).
My ex worked at Great Wolf, she said they got people from every state in The Great Plains except Texas. Plus Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas and Minnesota.
