Swifty Swine Racing & Swimming Pigs

Always a favorite! Guests will be treated to an action-packed, fast-paced, high-energy program as “Swifty” the swimming pig plunges into an eight-foot tank, and four piglets compete for first place in a series of high-speed races. It’s the fastest pig race around!
