Everest Academy is a ministry of Everest Family Church in Hayden. We offer freedom along with quality resources, information, activities and support to those homeschooling in Alabama. We believe that the parent has the best interests of their children at heart. We believe that the parent is the first and only teacher that a child needs. In keeping with this philosophy, we wish to be a very hands-off church "cover" school and allow the parent to lead and guide their children in the direction and at the pace they feel is best suited to their children. We ask only for what the law requires while offering support along with quality resources to aid families in their efforts.

May 1 - 3, 2026, Leeds: FUNBOX Bounce Park

May 1 - 3, 2026
FUNBOX Bounce Park
Grand River in Leeds, AL

Special Final Week Event for Homeschoolers!

Hey everyone! My name is Micheal Turner, a former student of Everest Academy, and I’m currently working a part time job at FUNBOX Bounce Park, located at The Shops of Grand River, in Leeds, AL.

This upcoming weekend, May 1st-3rd is the last weekend for this campaign of FUNBOX, and the *last* time they’ll be in the Birmingham Metropolitan area. I’ve asked my manager if I could extend a discount code to Alabama homeschoolers to come and enjoy us before we leave, since they won’t be returning and the homeschoolers I’ve met while at work have had a blast!

So, the way the bounce park works is of you pre-buy tickets online via our website ( Birmingham, AL | Funbox ), the price per base ticket with no add ons ( taxes and fees are also not applied ) is $14, if you use the code TURNER at checkout, you’ll get a 20% discount to enjoy the last weekend of fun!

Quick explanation also, just so you can find easier/have a basic understanding, the park operates in 80 minute sessions, in specific time slots. You pick your time slot, pre purchase the tickets, then arrive about 10-15 minutes before your chosen time to check in, where you’ll be asked to wait in line to hear the rules, etc.

There are options for longer sessions, called VIP, which gives you two 80 minute sessions, a free pair of grippy socks, and a free snowcone, to which the discount code TURNER also applies too. These are $10 extra, so $24 per ticket before the discount/fees are added/subtracted.

Children 2 and under are not required to purchase a ticket, but need the waiver filled out ( Said waiver will be sent to you after you purchase tickets ).

Adults** 65+ also don’t need to purchase a ticket, but will still need to fill out a waiver.

Everyone (Besides the 3 listed exceptions) going into the park, must purchase a ticket, even if they don’t plan on jumping.

If you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to contact FUNBOX directly, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

A note, we do sell tickets at the door, but the discount code WILL NOT apply on tickets bought at the door, and those tickets are $18 instead of $14.

FUNBOX is also a cashless establishment, just as a courtesy heads up.

**Pregnant guests are also not required to purchase a ticket, but for safety reasons are not allowed inside the bouncy areas.
