What to pack in coolers when going to a water park?

For my birthday, I am going to celebrate with a few friends at a water park. Well, I need some ideas on what to pack when going to the water park. Pizza will be provided, but what about snacks and other foods? Any ideas on what to pack? I will be going to Schlitterbahn where picnic items are welcome.

1. You should definitely bring some cans of soda, or water bottles. Something to keep you hydrated (and to wash down that pizza). Snacks, however...something small and light, like a granola bar, would be best. Hope that helps.
2. It all depends on the park you are going to. Many will not allow coolers into the park. You might want to check the park's website to find out if they allow coolers in the park. If you are going to keep the cooler in the car and return to the car for lunch then pack pretty much what you want. Chips, pretzels, dips, veggies, lots of water, you may even want to pack some bread and cold cuts and cheese. If you want,pack cookies or brownies as they store in a hot car easier than a cake. Have a happy birthday.
3. yoghurts. Nice yoghurt not Trix or anythign with HFCS. Nice little dried fruit packets. Watrmelon, celery and cucumbers in foil with chili salt and pepper, just taek soem peeled cucumebrs and the spices along. fruit salad- take canned fruit if you don't wanna cut and chop but get the fruit in juice not syrup. Uhm...wholewheat burritos and cram cheese. Bananas, and puffed rice cakes.
