A New Hampshire businessman is going to extreme measures to avoid the closure of his failing water park.

Liquid Planet founder Kevin Dumont chained himself to the top of a water slide at the water park on Monday. He has tent, food supplies, microwave and a chain attached, which means he intends to stay there a while

Dumont is doing this to raise awareness of his plight and is trying to get #SaveLiquidPlanet to trend on social media. The water park had been closed for the summer due to a bacterial infection, according to the Union Leader.

He is looking to pay off the bank and prevent the park from being auctioned off by the bank. NECN reports that he is seeking investors to help with a $1.6 million bank loan.

Here is what he wrote on his Facebook page:

Hello friends. I am writing to all of today to say two things. 1. I am not crazy but I have chained myself to the top of the waterpark slide tower here at Liquid Planet in Candia, NH. I am doing this in a last ditch effort to save all that I have created. The bank has foreclosed on me and is auctioning the property on December 2nd so I am staying up here to try and save it. 2. You all can help immensely by helping to spread the word. Through social media, word of mouth, the press or anything else you can think of. I am not looking for a handout but rather a person, group of people or a company that would partner with me , pay off the bank and save yet another small business from failing. I will be up here 24 hours a day so I will post Info throughout the day. It's very beautiful up here but also pretty lonely, please feel free to call or text or even visit. 603 682 5865 All my love and thanks, Kevin Dumont
