Parties Under the Shade Tree
Welcome to Parties Under the Shade Tree. It is an honor to be able to open our doors and offer our facilities to your family in an effort to provide the opportunity for your children to have the birthday of a lifetime. Below is general information about the Birthday Parties and how to go about reserving your date.
We open the booking schedule in June of each year for the upcoming year. If you would like to book a party, please call Mandy at 817-281-3361, ext. 247 or send her an email at shadetreeparty@gmail.com. Your party is not booked until the Party Coordinator has checked the schedule for an opening and contacted you.

The parties are 2 hours long – the 1st hour is spent in the Playscape and the 2nd hour is in the party room. Food, drinks, and opening of gifts will take place in the party room. (The last 15 minutes of the 2nd hour is clean-up.)
