The park offered discounted rates for veterans and their families

The All-American Fun Park opened their doors to veterans and active service members of all areas this Memorial Day.

The fun park treated veterans and service members to a free two hour admission while offering a discount of $12 dollars for two hours to family members.  The free activities included go-carts, bumper boats, laser-tag, miniature golf, and a Max-Flight ride.  Aaron Johnson, a 14-year U.S. Marine Corps veteran was on hand at the fun park, driving the go-carts with his son Tyrone.  

“The sacrifices the military family makes are probably greater…the family has to pick up a lot when you leave, when you’re deployed.  The wife, the children,  they have a lot to do…that responsibility falls on them,” he said.
