Extremely challenging times

A representative of Center Parcs stated: “We are devastated by the dreadful news that one of our young guests has died.

Our prayers continue to be with the family during this terrible time.

A Christmas traveler staying at Center Parcs reported to PA News that there was a temporary barrier at the pool’s entrance.

The Midlands mother of five stated that the resort had announced publicly that the Subtropical Swimming Paradise water park would remain closed on Christmas Eve.

It does state that there will be an announcement on the pool later on today.
