The downtown water slide event down Third Street in Marble Falls is an amenity, sponsored by the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce and Ms. Lollipop’s Parties Fun & Gifts. It's happening Saturday and Sunday, June 19-20.

Two hour passes are $20 per person. All day passes are $40. Go to the community events link at marblefalls.org for tickets.
