Tubing business takes strides to protect customers from heat, COVID-19

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) – With a hot July weekend expected, many families are likely looking for activities near the water.

That same hot weather can also increase safety concerns.

Zen Tubing officials said they are fully booked for at least the first half of the weekend. This weekend’s heat adds to this year’s concerns of COVID-19.

“This is a great time to get out on the river and get a little relief from the heat and humidity,” Zen Tubing president and owner Jen Ditzler said.

Ditzler said July is usually the business’ busiest month, but, with COVID-19, things look different than usual.

“We are having, due to COVID, take reservations. So, that’s a bummer. We are having to turn people away because we were getting full pretty much every day,” Ditzler said.
