Snowflex and LU monogram hike

We were able to enjoy a fun afternoon at Snowflex at LU on Saturday July 13.  It was Family Fun Day for the community.  That means the price dropped from $5/hour to just $1 and they brought in to inflatable play structures and did a movie at 8pm outside.  We didn't stay for the movie.

We got there about 3:15.  The kids had come here last summer with their summer day camp, but this was my first time.  Since it was a toasty warm summer day it was almost like a fancy slip and slide.  It was still a tube full of fun!  We road down over and over for an hour and then we tried out the bounce fun and a smaller slope.  On the smaller slope, the rules were very relaxed and the kids could try some stunts of bravery.  I think the kids almost liked the smaller slope better since they could do more than just sit in the tube and ride.  I liked the big one better.  But my bravery has worn off over the years,so that would make sense.  I had no desire to ride halfway down and then stand up.  But I did try going down on my knees and head first. Either way, it was a ton of fun, different and affordable!For $3 total the three of us enjoyed one hours of tubing and an additional hour and a half of bounce house and small slope fun!You can't beat that price tag and especially not with that variety!  Thanks LU and Snowflex for providing a Family Fun day that nearly anyone can afford!  I appreciate the new experiences you all gave us and allowing up to play together affordably.

After playing at snowflex, we decided to go on a hike and to view the giant LU monogram up close and personal.  From most places w/i Lynchburg you seem to be able to see the GIANT LU on the mountainside.
