Join us Saturday 09.06.25
We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new element to our already beloved Taylor Time at Soaky Mountain Waterpark!
On Saturday, September 6th, we’re taking our commitment to inclusivity and community one step further. During Taylor Time, guests will have the opportunity to connect with a specially curated group of local vendors and organizations that provide valuable services and support for families navigating sensory sensitivities.
These incredible partners will be set up in our Base Camp Group Area and ready to engage with families throughout the event from 8:30 a.m.-11:00 a.m. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn about resources in our region, meet passionate professionals, and continue building a supportive, informed, and connected community.
Organizations joining us include (but certainly aren’t limited to):
- Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies
- Joyfull Fitness
- We Rock the Spectrum
- ABA Centers of Tennessee
At Soaky Mountain, Taylor Time has always been about creating a welcoming, comfortable space for families and with these new connections, we’re thrilled to make the experience even more impactful.
We invite all guests to explore the vendor area, ask questions, and make new connections that might benefit your family or someone you love. Whether you’re looking for support, information, or simply want to meet others in the community, we hope this addition makes your day at the park even more meaningful.
We can’t wait to see you on September 6th for this special edition of Taylor Time!
