Kings Island offers these families a day to trade all their worries and stress for roller coasters, laughter with the family and simply a day together.
“When you bring nearly 10,000 family members together for one Adventure, you’re creating something truly extraordinary,” said Megan Koester, President and CEO of A Kid Again.
This adventure is made possible through the parks’ in-kind partnerships and brings families together from all around the region.
“For so many of our families, this is a day they’ve been counting down to all year. It’s a chance for children to be kids, siblings to share in the excitement and parents to watch their families experience pure joy,” Koester said. “We’re incredibly grateful to Kings Island and Six Flags for making this possible and for helping us create moments that our families will carry with them long after the day is over.”
A Kid Again provides the families with a cost-free family event that gives both families and the children something positive to look forward to each year.
