Casas Church opens Kid City
Children whose families attend Casas Church now have the
ultimate play area. Kid City, a $750,000 mini amusement park
complete with life-sized two- and three-dimensional characters and
colorful graphics, opened Jan. 23, much to the delight of parents
and youngsters alike. The park was designed by Bruce Barry and his
Wacky World Studios. Barry is well known for his work on the E.T.
ride at Universal Studios as well as Rain Forest Café eateries.
“It has been my dream for years to offer families a safe place
to bring their children so the parents were free to enjoy our
Sunday services without worry,” said Glenn Barteau, senior pastor
of Casas Church, 10801 N. La Cholla Blvd. in Oro Valley. “We have
surpassed my wildest dreams for creating an atmosphere kids will
absolutely love while offering state-of-the-art security
measures.”
