Running Rivers Water Park &

Retreat

•Positioning Statement:• Running River Water Park & Retreat provides children and their families an unforgettable indoor and outdoor swimming adventure. Our water park offers a unique swimming experience by providing a variety of waterslides for all ages, a lazy river, an indoor wave pool, and a spa for the adults.

• Tag Line:• Where water and wild come together

Positioning Statement

• Entertainment:• Multiple waterslides, lazy river, adult and kiddie pools, and a spa.

• Retail:• Retail and shopping plazas and village squares where people can

gather and socialize within a few miles.

• Residential:• Once we create an attractive destination for visitors, there will be

demand for people who want to live there. You can add single-family homes that are wholly-owned by permanent residents or you can add villas and condos that are fractionally-owned and may be placed by the resort.

• Office:• Once we create a place where people can meet, recreate, shop

and find entertainment, wouldn’t it be great to work there?

How retail mix creates desired value offer & shopping experience:
