Inflatables, face painting, caricatures—just a few of the activities kids can venture into at Regatta’s Colcom “Cool Off” Kids Zone. Don’t be fooled… parents love it too, as much for the activities as they do for the playful way it occupies their youngsters’ time—through a variety of amusing, sometimes educational, and always entertaining exploits.

There’s water fun too, through the always welcoming and invigorating misting zone complete with commercial grade fans spewing their comfortably cooling water spray all day long. Kids and adults can leisurely walk through anytime to saturate themselves with a mellow shower of water bringing relief to the typically scorching sun rays of July.
