“You know that from that first year on it was just, you know, enough people said that something about this is great. Something about this has some legs. And that just kept us you know kind of gave us the fuel to keep going and keep growing and adding mood new layers to this and you know here we are 10 years later," McLean said.

Having Splash House become a staple in his hometown has been a surreal experience.

“To have the opportunity to bring people out and experience Palm Springs and you know, share, share everything that's awesome about it and have an amazing time. You know, the most special moments as a promoter is when you're just look around and people are just so dialed in and like smiling and having an absolutely amazing time.”
