Review of Sahara Sam's Oasis Indoor and ...

Love this place even more than some of the full outdoor waterparks I've been to.. and my family and i have a membership because it's open year round, being indoors/outdoors.. Only issue I have with it is the creepy advertisement posters they have every where- because it almost seems like, whoever their photographer is, he/she really focuses their attention on the little teeny bopper girls while in their bathing suits/bikinis (yes, bikinis.. some parents just make me have to smh in astonishment).. almost no posters or ads throughout the place for holiday events have adults or even kids that are male.. In fact, their New Year's Eve party poster is the most disturbing, because it has the usual 6-10 little girls in a row posing inappropriately and covered in patches of bubbles, but also advertises the fact that they serve alcohol at the bar for adults, they have balloons drop at midnight, and they have-- brace yourself-- "mud" wrestling for the kids, using bubbles instead of mud... ... ...yeah, let those implications really sink in for a moment... so you want parents to get wasted while letting their kids run around half naked and mud wrestling up to and well beyond midnight?! WHAT?!? I love the place, but something seems off with the obsessed photography of young girls.
Now couple this with the fact that New Jersey law allows them to have security cameras EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE they want, for "safety", as long as they notify customers (which they do on a big white with black text sign; right next to the changing rooms) and you'll get a really creeped out feeling when you see their ad posters all over the park, too... One has to wonder how many kids have ever been reported as "missing" during or after one of these kid friendly drunken pool parties? And how many times has their security footage actually helped solve any of these missing children cases? There's a LOT of money to be made in the blackmarket using kidnapped children as slaves or sex slaves or though selling child pornography and whatnot, and people are out there who will do anything to make a buck; especially when the going price for just one child is about $1 million bucks... just saying.. /0:

OMG I just submitted this and then I HAD to come back to edit it after I saw their profile picture on here- it might change by the time anyone reads this review, but it's right in line with the rest of the photos and ad photos in their park... 8 little girls playing in the lazy river and only one boy.. though, at least this one has most of the girls covered by inner tubes and water, rather than posing with bubble patches intentionally placed in places meant to-- what exactly??? Tantalize through the "tease"? If their photographer is just trying to be "cute" with kids posing while doing adult things, it's not coming off as such.
