2019 River Ranch Community Event Days Calendar at Kulaqua

Welcome to River Ranch, where fun meets faith and families come together! To ensure that everyone has a splashing good time, we kindly ask all our guests to adhere to the following regulations:

  • No profanity or obscene jesters
  • No alcohol or tobacco products allowed on premises / Coolers will be inspected
  • No music via speakers / Bluetooth devices to be played. We offer overhead music via our system.

  • Keep all food and drinks at least 10 feet away from the water’s edge
  • Please place trash in trash receptacles

At River Ranch, safety is our top priority! To ensure that everyone enjoys a fun and injury-free experience, we kindly request that all guests observe the following safety rules:

  • No running on the pool decks
  • No diving
  • No standing or jumping on tubes
  • No stacking of tubes
  • Enter and exit pools at designated locations only
  • No toddlers are allowed in the kiddie area while the waves are being made

While River Ranch boasts highly trained lifeguards, nothing beats the importance of adult supervision in preventing accidents or injuries. Parents are required to accompany small children at all times. Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring everyone’s safety.

Make sure to mark your calendars and save the dates for Kulaqua’s River Ranch Water Park Community Event Days! These are specific days when the water park opens its gates to the community. No reservations are needed—simply pay at the front gate upon arrival.

Here are some of the park rules you’ll need to to remember:

 

  • Our goal at River Ranch Water Park is for your outing to be a positive, safe – and let’s not forget FUN experience!
  • Kulaqua is primarily a user group facility, but on these dates the Water Park is available to the Community.
  • We are a Christian facility and request that only modest swimsuits be worn. If in doubt, please bring a cover up to wear over your swim suit.
  • Bring sunscreen! The water is cool, but the sun is HOT! And we wouldn’t want you to get a sunburn.
  • River Ranch Water Park opens at 10 am and closes at 5:30 pm on Community Event Days so make sure you come with plenty of time to enjoy your day in the sun.
  • You’ll probably work up an appetite, so feel free to bring food and coolers, but remember – no glass containers will be allowed.
  • We do not allow alcohol or smoking on the premises.
  • Admission is $19.00 per person, and children 3 and under are free when accompanied by their parents

Let’s have fun at
Kulaqua’s River Ranch!

Just another way Kulaqua Retreat and Conference Center sets itself apart from other Christian retreat and conference centers.

Christian retreats and conferences don’t have to be boring.

Studies show that when a group plays together well, they work together better.

Why not choose the best for your next Christian or educational retreat or conference in North Central Florida?

Your guests will be coming back to build on the memories and relationships year after year.
