It was a decent time at the water park - a little chilly for my tastes, but the kids liked it plenty.

Ramirez was playing that night and the KCC had a 9-year high attendance of over 14,000! It was a good game, the Chiefs won, but it was the three errors on the Cougars that really was the reason.<\/p>\n<p>After the game, they had a <strong>great<\/strong> fireworks display there.
