Hey, got an ‘A’? Enter these Vegas waterparks for free with good grades

Updated May 21, 2024 - 6:59 pm

School is out for the summer, and Cowabunga Vegas Waterparks wants to reward high-achieving students with a special deal.

From Monday through Thursday, students who show a report card with three or more ‘A’ grades and a valid ID at the ticket window at Cowabunga Bay in Henderson or Cowabunga Canyon in Summerlin can get free park entry for the park’s annual Great Grades Days.

Cowabunga Vegas said both park’s gates are open from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday.

Guests with their ‘A’ student can also take advantage of Friends and Family tickets, which are $19.99 each during the four-day event. Tickets are limited to six per eligible guest.

“Rewarding academic success is not only important for the individual students but also for fostering a culture that values learning and achievement,” Cade Vereen, regional general manager for Cowabunga Vegas, said in a news release.
