- Bus Parking is Free!
Bus parking is always free at Castle Park. When you arrive, the buses will be parked in our overflow lot located across from the main entrance. The buses can remain parked there during the duration of your field trip, or they can return to pick your school up in the same location after our school days have concluded.

Pizza Meal Combo - Two slices of pizza and a drink
Chicken Tender Meal - Chicken tenders, potato chips, and a drink
Drink options include a can of soda, a Capri Sun, or a small water bottle

The total amount due will be based on group totals on the signed agreement. If no guest count has changed ten business days before your arrival, the amount on the agreement will be considered due. Unused tickets are non-refundable and return tickets will be given out for the number of unused tickets.
