Kerrville Sports Complex now accepting eclipse viewing reservations

The City of Kerrville Parks and Recreation Department is now selling parking passes to view the April 8 total eclipse at the Kerrville Sports Complex.  A limited number of parking passes will be sold for regular-sized family vehicles to stay at the KSC to view the eclipse.  Prepurchasing a parking pass is the best way to ensure there is a place to go on that day, according to city officials.

The Kerrville Sports Complex stretches across Holdsworth Drive and consists of a baseball/softball complex, 111 Home Run Drive, and a soccer complex, 117 Sweeper Lane.  Parking passes are being sold in advance for $75 per car (limited to one per household).  Parking passes will not be sold at the gate.  Parking pass holders will have access to food, water, restrooms, and fields/open spaces at the KSC Viewing Location.  Guests are encouraged to bring any supplies (water, food, first aid, etc.) they may need to be comfortable for the day.
