Start the new year with a splash!

Join us for our 7th annual First Day event, with two programs this year!

1 Group jump into the pool at 11 AM

2 First Steps History Tour (New!) at 2 PM

Count down with us as we jump into the pool together at 11 AM for a New Year's wakeup. After everyone has warmed up in the afternoon, Ranger Michelle will be giving a specialty tour (an easy, accessible quarter-mile walk) discussing the history of the spring before it became a park!

Cost: Free with park entry

Bring: Bathing suit, towel, comfortable shoes for the walk, weather-appropriate clothing

Make waves by leaping into 2025 at Balmorhea!

Location: The group jump will meet poolside, and the tour will meet in the pool area between the bathhouses
