2009 annual vehicle permits for entrance into the Sam Wahl Recreational Area at Lake Alan Henry are now available in the Parks and Recreation Office. Vehicle permits allow a permit holder to enter the Lake as often as they would like in 2009 without paying additional entrance fees and can be purchased for individuals or families. In addition, annual boat permits are also available for the coming year. Residents of Lubbock receive a discount on the cost of annual permits as do senior citizens who are age 60 or over. Permit applications can be picked up at Parks and Recreation, 1010 9th Street, printed from the website at www.lakealanhenry.org, or mailed upon request by calling (806) 775-2673.

The 2009 fee structure for daily use fees and annual permits has the same rates as in previous years. A valid Texas Driver’s License with a Lubbock Zip Code must be presented to determine residency. Local university/college students must show student ID and proof of Lubbock residency (utility bill, etc.). The Parks and Recreation Department accepts cash, checks, Visa and MasterCard, and is located at 1010 9th Street. Office hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For more information, contact (806) 775-2673.
