Press Release

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – If you haven’t finalized your Easter plans, the City announces Easter holiday camping will resume this year at Labonte Park. (located at 14333 IH-37).

The Parks & Recreation Department will start accepting online reservations from park visitors to secure a campsite at Labonte Park for the weekend of Friday, April 2, 2021 to Sunday, April 4, 2021.

The plan also reduces the number of available sites by 33%. This effort was taken in order to accommodate social distancing of six feet for families averaging 15 people per campsite and to allow for a social distance of six feet between camp sites.

Campsites 1-15 are 50 feet wide and allow one RV per campsite. Campsites 16-53 are 50 feet wide and are recommended for groups of 15 people. Campsites 54-101 are 35 feet wide allow for groups of less than 10 people. 

RESERVATIONS: As a reminder, the online reservation period will run from Tuesday, March 23rd at 12:00 p.m. until noon on Thursday, April 1st or earlier if all of the sites are reserved before the deadline. A camping fee of $28 will be required for up to three nights of camping at the park. RV campsites are $55 for up to three nights of camping.

New this year, each site reservation will receive 2 parking passes as part of their camping fee. One additional parking pass is $6 and will be available for purchase at the time of reservation. These fees help to offset the cost of trash pick-up and site clean-up required as a result of the holiday camping.

Campsites are reserved and paid for in advance at https://register.ccparkandrec.com/One campsite package is allowed per customer request and payment must be made within 24 hours of reservation approval. No campsites or parking passes will be available for purchase onsite.
