Agorodd parc dŵr SC2 ei ddrysau dros y penwythnos i gannoedd o bobl allu fwynhau sesiynau blasu am ddim cyn yr ailagor swyddogol.

Gyda ond dyddiau ar ol cyn ailagor parc dŵr SC2 ar y 5ed o Orffennaf, roedd tîm DLL (Hamdden Sir Ddinbych Cyf) yn SC2 wrth eu bodd yn croesawu cwsmeriaid yn ôl i’r parc dŵr, ac i weld y pwll yn llawn wynebau hapus unwaith eto!

Gwahoddodd DLL bobl leol i fwynhau ychydig oriau yn y parc dŵr am ddim fel ‘blas’ o’r hyn sydd i ddod yr haf hwn, ac fel diolch am eu cefnogaeth yn ystod yr amser y bu’r parc dŵr ar gau ar gyfer atgyweiriadau i’r to. Cafodd dros 600 o docynnau am ddim eu cipio ar-lein mewn llai na thri deg munud, ac roedd y sesiynau’n llwyddiant ysgubol, gyda thrigolion yn llifo i mewn i fwynhau’r cyfle i gael hwyl, a chreu rhai atgofion gyda ffrindiau a theulu. Roedd y digwyddiad am ddim hefyd yn cynnwys sesiwn yn benodol ar gyfer pobl ddigartref leol, i gefnogi’r elusen Helping Homeless North Wales.

Mae archebu ar-lein eisoes ar agor, ac mae’r tîm yn SC2 yn edrych ymlaen yn fawr at groesawu pawb ac yn barod i agor y drysau’r penwythnos hwn am haf llawn hwyl! Bydd disgownt teyrngarwch lleol gwych ar gael i drigolion lleol ei ddefnyddio ar ôl 4pm bob penwythnos a thrwy gydol gwyliau haf yr ysgol. Bydd arena Ninja TAG a Chwarae Meddal Antur thema dinosoriaid hefyd ar agor ochr yn ochr â chaffi Chwarae Antur gyda choffi Costa a hufen iâ Red Boat yn cael eu gweini ledled y safle.

Dywedodd Jamie Groves, Rheolwr Gyfarwyddwr DLL: “Mae pawb yn DLL yn gyffrous iawn i gael y Parc Dŵr yn ôl ar waith, ac allwn ni ddim aros i ailagor ddydd Sadwrn! SC2 yw ein prif atyniad ac mae wedi bod yn gyfnod anodd i bawb yn DLL heb y parc dŵr. Roedd y digwyddiadau blasu i ddangos ein diolchgarwch i’r gymuned leol am eu cefnogaeth ac i roi cipolwg iddynt ar yr hwyl wych sydd o’u blaenau’r haf hwn, roedd yn wych gweld cymaint o bobl yn mwynhau’r parc dŵr eto! Mae ein tîm yn SC2 yn gyffrous iawn i groesawu pawb yn ôl ac fel yr addawyd rydym yn fwy ac yn well nag o’r blaen! Fel bob amser, rydym am roi haf o hwyl ac atgofion hapus i ymwelwyr a thrigolion yn SC2, felly archebwch eich ymweliad heddiw – allwn ni ddim aros i’ch gweld chi!”

Bydd DLL yn cyhoeddi mwy o fanylion am ailagor y Pad Sblasio yn fuan. Am ragor o wybodaeth, ewch i http://www.sc2rhyl.co.uk neu ewch i dudalennau cymdeithasol SC2 am y diweddariadau diweddaraf.

DLL has offered local charity Helping Homeless North Wales 200 free tickets for an exclusive session at SC2 Waterpark at the end of June. 

The tickets will be distributed to homeless people and families across three North Wales counties through the Community Group, giving them an evening of fun, relaxation and a chance to make some happy memories, at the popular attraction.

Helping Homeless North Wales, who work with homelessness organisations across North Wales including the Denbighshire Homelessness Prevention team, approached DLL to work together about a potential visit to SC2.  The two organisations had previously worked together in 2023 on a similar event for homeless families from Rhyl.  DLL jumped at the opportunity to help and offered 200 free tickets to the charity.

SC2’s waterpark is due to reopen on 5th July, following a period of closure due to storm damage to the roof, and DLL’s recent announcement of a weekend free taster sessions for local residents was so popular it sold out in under 30 minutes.

Richard Kendrick from Helping Homelessness North Wales, said: “Huge thanks to DLL for their amazing support. This event was amazing in 2023. So many families had a great time. I know how much this helps families going through homelessness. Benefiting the mental health and wellbeing of children. Having a chance to get away for a few hours and play in such a great place. Having a local company support our work means do much. We can’t thank Jamie and his team enough. I know there will be so many smiling faces there!”

Jamie Groves, DLL Managing Director said “Homelessness is at all-time high across Wales, and this has a huge effect on children’s lives, not only their schooling but also their opportunities for play, fun and sport.  We have offered up to 200 tickets for SC2’s Waterpark to be distributed to homeless families so that they can come enjoy a fun-filled evening with us, and make some memories with their families! During times of hardship, days like this are essential to make memories together so we’re pleased to be offering 200 free tickets, and we hope to work together in the future as well. SC2 and DLL are here for the whole community and we want as many people as possible to experience the fun!”
