Add splash of family fun to New Year's
Families can enjoy a wet and wild New Year's Eve celebration -- close to home -- at one of two CoCo Key Water Resorts in Illinois.
The resorts' Family Celebration Package includes overnight accommodations, four water park passes that can be used on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day as well as arcade game passes. Movies and a midnight ball drop are part of the action.
CoCo Key's Clock Tower Resort in Rockford starts at $249 (not including tax and gratuity) for a family of four. For information, call (815) 398-6000.
In northwest suburban Arlington Heights, the CoCo Key Water Resort at the Sheraton Chicago Northwest is offering a similar package priced from $399. It includes rubber duck water races, a dance party, hors d'oeuvres from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m., and a New Year's Day breakfast. For details, call (847) 394-2000.
