The manager has been accused of hiring illegal aliens to work at the park in many of the custodial and chemical areas. There has been a question of illegal gambling on the premises. Money has been inappropriately handled by the business staff personel. Taxes owed to the city of Frowntown have been late or not paid at all. Over $150,000 in unpaid bills to other businesses have yet to be paid. The Manager of the facility has skipped the country and the owner Col. Robert J. Megabucks Jr. Esquire has been unavailable for comment. It is also rumored that certain members of the Frowntown city council were bribed into voting yes on the permit to allow Wet and Wild to build in Frowntown.
