Looking to defy gravity? Puyallup’s new Catapult Adventure Park might be the answer
There’s a new amusement park in Pierce County near the Puyallup River.
It has several inflatable fixtures, slides and rock walls for families to enjoy.
Catapult Adventure Park recently opened a location at 1405 E. Main Ave. in Puyallup. The park has another location in Federal Way, but Puyallup’s has more attractions.
“This one’s larger,” Brett Wagner, vice president of marketing, said. “This is 40,000 square feet. … we have about 30 unique attractions that are going into this.”
The park has a tube-topia, which has a similar effect to river tubing, but indoors and without water. People can ride a tube with a partner and have a racing competition down a slide.
There is also a ninja cat course where people can test their speed, reflexes and agility — something like a miniature, less-intense version of the American Ninja Warrior course. The park also offers an attraction called tornado whirl, during which people have to jump or duck to avoid getting knocked off a platform by a rotating arm.
In a couple of weeks, the park will have a double-drop, four-lane inflatable slide, Wagner said.
“You’re never too old to enjoy an adventure park, and also if you haven’t tried it’s definitely worth trying because it just gets all the energy out of the kids,” Wagner said.
People can purchase a $15 or $25 monthly membership. Both monthly membership levels have different perks. People not interested in memberships can pay $23 per person for 90 minutes or $30 per person for two hours. Toddlers who are 3.5 feet tall and under can play for $17 for two hours.
Catapult Adventure Park had its soft opening on Dec. 23 at 2 p.m. It is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday to Saturday, and 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday. More information can be found on the park’s website.
