As the weather warms, it’s always a great time for an
outdoor day trip. I had never been to Knights Action Park in nearby
Springfield, Illinois, before and I was anxious to check it out.
For a small amusement park, Knights Action packs a lot in.
They have a waterpark, amusement rides, miniature golf and a golf range, and a racing track.

I had a teen and a pre-teen with me who were anxious to hit the long slides, while I am always happy to grab a tube an relax in a lazy river.
I enjoyed that for a while and ten hit the wave pool, where I met up with Brittany, Jacob, and Kyler.
We walked around for a while and saw the Seal Bay area for younger kids, as well as the river, where they have paddle boats.I enjoyed that for a while and ten hit the wave pool, where I met up with Brittany, Jacob, and
Unfortunately, the paddle boats weren’t available the day we where there. It’s something I’d definitely enjoy next time I’m back.
There is a snack bar inside at Knights Action Park, but the consensus was to go outside and take a short drive to Chick-fil-A, which we don’t have in Champaign.
We had gotten the all-inclusive bracelets so we were able to come back in with no problem and continue our activities.
First, I played photographer (and videographer, check out my YouTube video), while the others tried out the go cart racing.
We decided to skip the Ferris Wheel as it was starting to get dark.

It looked like a lot of fun as I watched them go around a few times. Then, we all played a round of miniature golf on the 18-hole Putt Putt course.
I definitely recommend purchasing an all-inclusive pass at Knights Action Park.
If you live nearby, it’s also worth getting a season pass as only the waterpark closes after Labor Day.
The passes are also discounted if
you buy them before the start of the next May season. (Check their website for
details.)
Another thing I didn’t have a chance to check out that I
need to come back for is the Route 66
Drive-In Theater, which is under the same ownership as Knights Action Park.
