As Lewisville ISD gears up for the return to school life, Sun Valley Aquatic Center is altering its operational timetable to match the cadence of scholarly pursuits. Starting Sunday, Aug. 10, the family-friendly water haven will pivot to weekend-only hours, opening its gates from 1-6 p.m. on Saturdays and 2-6 p.m. on Sundays through the waning days of the summer season, as published on the City of Lewisville's official website.
With the beckoning of textbooks and the call of roll, summer's last hurrah at Sun Valley will officially cease come Sunday, Aug. 31. It's vital for patrons planning a weekend dip or a slide down those double-loop slides, to be aware that, depending on staff availability — the lifeworld of the aquatic center — certain attractions might be benched for the day. A quick call to 972.210.3550 before embarking may save you from the waves of disappointment.
Cost won't pose as a barrier to entry for these final splashes of the season. Residents can immerse themselves for $4, while those from farther shores will have to shell out $8. Sprouts aged two and under, however, will find their admission waves forever at bay — free, as always. Sun Valley, nestled by Lewisville High School at 801 S. Valley Parkway, isn't just about its slides and lazy river; it's also a place where competition can flourish within its 25-yard pool and younger children can wade worry-free in its tot pool.
