Field Trips

2023 Field Trip Reservations will be accepted starting March 6, 2023, until full.

The Lake Eva Aquatics Center has become a popular field trip destination for large groups such as: summer camps, daycare centers, and schools.  The following information will guide you through the reservation process.  

This reservation system applies only to summer camps from various municipalities or organizations that will be visiting on weekdays during the summer. 

Booking Dates

In order to better accommodate all groups, each group will be allowed to book up to four (4) dates for the entire summer. If after the first round of approvals go out and there are dates still available, we will open up the option for you to add more dates. If you would still like to submit all of your dates at one time, you may do that, but only your top 4 will be approved, if available, in the beginning. Please list your dates in order of preference.

Fill out the Group Request Form (link will go live at 8:00 a.m. on March 6, 2023) to request a date. Our staff will respond to your request within 5 business days. Remember, we do not accept walk up groups. In order to be able to serve our community and allow summer camps, we can only accept up to 150 campers and (chaperones) per day.

Date Requests

You will need to request your day(s) and wait for approval. Date requests will be approved in the order that they were received. Once approved, we will send you a confirmation phone call and/or email. Please complete and return the confirmation form ASAP to lock in your date. Please be prompt in requesting your day(s), as once we reach our daily limit, that day will no longer be available. Dates are available Monday through Friday only.
