Summers in Chicago are hot, hot, hot! Cool off with a ride down a tube slide or a trip around a lazy river at one of the many water parks in the Chicagoland area. Make a full day of it, or consider spreading out the fun by becoming a member to maximize fun all summer long.
While most of these water parks run regular hours throughout the summer, check for special hours at the beginning or end of the season, as hours tend to change.
