Dig’n Zone was excited to welcome Larry Vaught of YourSportsEdge.com and his family to our park in December of 2024. They were able to experience our park on a slower, winter day and had a great time.

“The Dig’n Zone immediately brought me back to my childhood sandbox with my Tonka trucks.  The Dig’n Zone is real-life Tonka trucks.  Now I really am behind the controls.  Our visit brought all those childhood dreams to life,” says author Larry’s son, Jeremy.

Vaught and his family got to experience the fun of operating real construction equipment at Dig’n Zone. No matter the age, each member of their family was able to find things that they enjoyed. 

“(Jeremy’s) 16-year-old son, Cooper Vaught, liked the Dig’n Pit more than anything else and was surprisingly good at controlling what I was told was a  4,500-pound excavator.” 

Author Larry also says that the Decimator, our Cat 320 spinning ride, brought out the kid in him, noting, “It spins at a high rate of speed and goes both forward and backward to give you some extra thrills.”

We were happy that Larry and his family enjoyed their visit to Dig’n Zone Theme Park. From the Dig’n Pit and the Decimator to 16-year-old Cooper’s praise of our Dig In Cafe Nachos, it seemed that everyone in attendance found things they enjoyed during their time with us. 

Thank you, Larry Vaught and YourSportsEdge.com, for your visit and kind words about our park!
