Yes, the concrete gets hot especially on the hotter days of summer.  We do attempt to cool concrete by placing sprinklers around the park; however, we strongly recommend wearing water shoes, flip flips or sandals when walking throughout the park.  You can hold your shoes going down all attractions of leave them at the bottom of the ride. 

When choosing a life jacket, follow the manufacturer’s sizing recommendations; life jackets are sized by chest circumference. In most jacket models, the only difference in the sizes is the length of the adjustment straps.

When trying on a jacket, start by loosening all the straps. Put it on and zip or snap the closures shut. First, tighten the bottom adjustment strap below the rib cage. This is important to prevent the jacket from riding up once you’re in the water. Then move up the torso, snuggly tightening the adjustment straps. Finish by cinching the shoulder straps. Tightening the shoulder straps first will make the jacket ride up too high.

Now, test the fit by raising your arms and having someone lift on the shoulder straps. If the jacket slides up your torso, try retightening the bottom adjustment strap. If it still rides up, select a different jacket model or size.

 It is imperative to note that lifejackets are not a substitute for adult supervision or swim instruction.  Undistracted adult supervision should always be maintained with a child who cannot swim on their own, with or without a personal flotation device.  

The slides have specific height requirements that are strictly enforced:

• Large standalone blue slides (Leisure Pool): 48"
• Large slides on Monsoon Mountain: 40"
• Small slides on Monsoon Mountain: 36"

The best way for our staff to practice their lifeguarding skills and emergency action plans is to initiate live scenarios.  In order to do this, we need to have patrons around, so our staff gets the real feel.  You may see managers “dropping” mannikins into the water and the lifeguards performing saves or hear us blowing an airhorn and running around.  If you see this the best thing for you to do is clear the area and let the staff do their job.  

Yes.  The gift shop at Collinsville Aqua Park is well-stocked and has many items you may need to enjoy the waterpark.  The wide selection of merchandise we have includes men’s, women’s, women’s plus-size, junior’s, and kid’s suits, adult and child t-shirts, adult tank tops, and a variety of hats and visors.  There are other non-clothing options to purchase as well.  These items include sunscreen, beach towels, waterproof phone cases, and more.

 All swimmers must always wear a lined swimsuit. Underwear, street clothes, and jeans are not acceptable swimwear and will not be permitted in the water.  Thong bathing suits, swim attire with rivets, buckles, belts, metal ornaments, or any other provocative swim attire are not permitted as well.  We are a family waterpark therefore swim attire should not be provocative or showy.  Appropriate swim attire rules are strictly enforced.  Failure to comply with any part of the dress code may result in ejection from the park without a refund.

Collinsville Aqua Park is an outdoor waterpark in which guests and staff are not always fully dressed.  In order to protect the safety and privacy of our guests and staff, video cameras and cameras will not be allowed in the waterpark. 

We understand that people will have their phones with them and that most phones have the capability of photography and videography.  We ask that guests take pictures of their children/group only.  Anyone believed to be inappropriately photographing or videoing any patron or staff member without their consent will be talked to and escorted out by Management and police depending on the situation.

Any commercial/professional photographers and videographers who wish to shoot at Collinsville Aqua Park should reach out to the Superintendent of Aquatics at jwiedman@collinsvilleil.org. 

All children not toilet trained are always required to wear the following while in the pool area: 1. a disposable Swim Diaper, 2. Plastic to cover the diaper, and 3. a Swimsuit (see graphics below for an example).   

Swim diapers and swim pants are not a substitute for frequent diaper changing and bathroom breaks. It is recommended that swim diapers and swim pants are checked frequently and changed away from the poolside. Diapers must be changed in the locker room and disposed of properly in the trash can.  Guests should then wipe down the baby changing station and wash their hands thoroughly before leaving the locker room. 

 If you or your children are sick, have diarrhea, or have an open cut/wound, DO NOT enter the water for the safety of other swimmers. In the event of a fecal “accident”, it is required that the pool be shut down for a substantial period so that the pool can be properly sanitized to a satisfactory level. State regulations require a twenty-four-hour closure when a liquid fecal contamination occurs.  Parents please talk to your non-diapered children about the importance of taking frequent bathroom breaks.  All adults will be responsible for the actions of their children. If you feel your child may have an “accident” we advise you to follow the swim diaper requirement. Swim diapers and the plastic pants can be purchased at the CAP Guest Service Office.

Collinsville Aqua Park is in Collinsville, Illinois, just at the heart of the populous Metro East area. Located right off major interstates 255 and 55, Collinsville Aqua Park is located at 10 Gateway Dr., Collinsville, IL 62234

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Collinsville+Aqua+Park/@38.676702,-90.0294534,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf628cecac81eaae6!8m2!3d38.6827658!4d-90.0195829

Lifeguards blow their whistles for many different situations.   Most of the time the whistles are blown to get the attention of a guest who is not following a rule or policy so they can correct the potentially dangerous and unsafe behavior.    Rules will become more familiar to guests as they frequent the park and then the whistles will become less recurrent.  Until then, guests should make it a habit to stop, look at, and listen to the lifeguards in case they are trying to get your attention.  

 Lifeguards also blow their whistles in emergency situations and to get the attention of a manager.  They are trained to know what each whistle means so they can communicate to each other and management through their whistles.  

Our lifeguard team wears different color swimsuits and hip packs to help staff, patrons, and emergency personnel distinguish who the managers are. 

Lifeguards wear royal blue.  Lifeguards are our front line staff and the face of the waterpark.  They are the ones you see on the stand and throughout the waterpark the most.

Head Guards also wear royal blue swimsuits and visors; however, they have navy blue hip packs.  Head Guards are lead lifeguards.  They are more on the ground, walking around ensuring lifeguards and patrons are okay and have everything they need.  They can help in situations where first aid, emergency services, and customer service is needed.

Assistant Managers and Managers wear red swimsuits and/or collared shirts or t-shirts with MANAGER on the back.  They have black hip packs.  Assistant Managers and Managers do a lot of the behind the scenes work such as paperwork, but you will see them throughout the park assisting patrons and staff in virtually every aspect.

Many small property owners operate their rental units as an investment and may not have the back ground information and or experience that would assist them in preventing or dealing with problems on their property. The Collinsville police department has had many cases that relate to rental property where drug sales, criminal gang activity and severe nuisance problems that adversely impacted the quality of life in the neighborhood. The owner was unaware or unable to quickly and effectively resolve these matters. One has no way of knowing if the next renter will become a nightmare for you or the neighborhood. The Crime-free Housing program will help you be prepared to prevent problems or be ready to quickly and effectively deal with those problems should they occur.

Leave ‘Em Safe Program

If you or someone you know is sleeping in a home without a working smoke detector, call the Fire Department.

Our Leave 'Em Safe Program works in cooperation with the Illinois State Fire Marshal's Office to install smoke detectors in owner occupied homes.  Whether the occupant cannot afford a smoke detector or has been unable to get one installed, Firefighters will come install a working smoke detector or replace batteries free of charge. The goal of the program is to make sure the occupants are protected before anyone sleeps one more night without a smoke detector.

Landlords are required to ensure working smoke detectors are present in all their rental units.  If you rent and have requested your landlord install or replace your smoke detector, contact us. In some cases we will have smoke detectors that are not a part of the State program, and will install them for you. If none are available, your landlord can be contacted by the Building Department to ensure the required detector(s) are installed. 

In short, the Collinsville Fire Department will do whatever it takes to get a smoke detector protecting your home.  Call before another night goes by.

Hydrant Maintenance Program

The purpose of the Collinsville hydrant flushing program is to provide better water quality to residents and ensure their proper operation in the event of a fire. For the hydrant to operate properly, crews check for ease of opening and closing, ensure that water flow stops when the hydrant is shut down, and make sure water remaining in the barrel drains down below ground level into surrounding soil. If a hydrant does not perform all of these functions, the hydrant must be repaired by the Water Department. Hard turning or inoperable fire hydrants can be a serious problem for the Fire Department during emergency situations and any leaks within the hydrant can be a source of water loss and a major cause for hydrant freeze up during the winter months.

City ordinance also requires that fire hydrants have a 48-inch circle around the hydrant that is free from obstructions. This helps firefighters find the hydrant in the event of an emergency. When a violation of this ordinance is discovered, a letter will be sent to the homeowner requesting the obstruction be removed, and follow-up will be performed to ensure removal has been completed.

The City will update areas with hydrants being flushed on their website, Facebook, and Twitter pages. Hydrant flushing may cause residential water to temporarily turn brownish in color. If this occurs, run the water until it becomes clear, and refrain from washing white clothes at that time.

Most of the positions at Collinsville Aqua Park are seasonal.  We encourage you to check our job listing page and sign up for job alerts to be notified of job openings.
