The coupon is valid seven days a week until Aug. 31. The event offers live entertainment, water balloon and hula-hoop contests, beach ball bonanza and is co-sponsored by Tonto National Forest, Take Pride in America and Salt River Tubing.
"Tubers’ conservation efforts on the Lower Salt River have resulted in a recreational oasis simply by keeping it clean and beautiful and taking personal responsibility for their own picnic trash,” said owner Henri Breault.
“Responsible stewardship of our natural resources will guarantee that we can enjoy quality recreational opportunities on our public lands for generations.”
Breault also encouraged floaters to utilize car pools as parking is limited in the Lower Salt River Recreational Area.
Take Pride in America is a national partnership that aims to inspire a new generation of volunteers to put their love of country to work to improve our national parks, wildlife refuges, public lands, cultural and historic sites, playgrounds and other recreation areas.
