Whether you’re looking for an unforgettable way to celebrate a birthday or want to create a splash for another special occasion, we make it easy with our stress-free party packages and exciting amenities. Here’s how to plan the perfect poolside celebration.

Step 1: Choose the Pool Party Package That’s Right for You

Our pool birthday parties are designed for kids ages 6 and older, offering a fantastic aquatic experience with endless fun! The highlights include:

Fun water features that keep the excitement going

A personal lifeguard to ensure everyone stays safe

Zero-depth entry, perfect for swimmers of all skill levels

The party costs $17 per person for district residents and $21 for non-district participants, with a minimum of 6 guests and a maximum of 24. If you’re expecting a larger crowd, no problem! For parties with 11 or more kids, we’ll provide an additional lifeguard for just $17 to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience.

Party staff to ensure everything runs smoothly

A dedicated party room for cake, presents, and hanging out

For all themes, you can find affordable decorations online or at local party stores. It’s simple and effective, and we’ll take care of the party essentials—leaving you free to focus on the fun stuff!

Want to add a little extra excitement? Here are a few ideas to keep your party guests entertained:
