Diving boards are out, slides are 10 minutes ago, and climbing walls are the next big thing at Great Bend’s Wetlands Aquatic Facility. A climbing wall at the deep end of the big pool is the newest feature at the Wetlands, Aquatics Director Paige Achatz said. Kids can climb about 8 feet above the water.
