DENVER — Water World, the popular water park just north of Denver, announced Tuesday that it has canceled its 2020 season.

In a statement, the park said preparations each year take months of work. Preparations include training new team members. Under current restrictions that is not possible, the park said.

The statement went on to say that at this time, there is no indication that an aquatic park the size of Water World, which operates with a large number of guests, will be permitted to open within the short summer opeartin season that is available in Colorado.

"We are deeply disappointed, and this is not a decision that comes lightly. Ultimately though, we care about our community and we’ll do our part to get our great State of Colorado back on its feet," the park said.

The 2021 season at Water World will begin May 23, 2021.
