Parrot Island Waterpark, located in Fort Smith, is thrilled to announce its annual Educator’s Day on Saturday, July 26th, from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., dedicated to honoring the hardworking teachers, school staff, and administrators who play an essential role in shaping our communities.

In recognition of their dedication and efforts, educators will receive FREE admission to the park with a valid school ID or proof of employment. To extend the gratitude, educators' immediate family members (up to three) will receive 50% off admission on this special day. It’s Parrot Island Waterpark’s way of saying “thank you” for their passion, commitment, and the difference they make in the lives of students.
Give Back While You CelebrateGuests visiting on Educator’s Day are encouraged to bring school supply donations to support local students in starting the new academic year strong. All donors will be entered into a raffle for an opportunity to win a free bungalow rental for a day—a perfect way to enjoy a relaxing and shaded retreat at the park.
“We know how hard educators work throughout the year,” said Drew Peterson, General Manager of Parrot Island Waterpark. “Educator’s Day is our chance to give back and offer them a fun, relaxing day in the sun before the school year kicks off again.”
