The Department of Natural Resources and the Library of
Michigan have teamed up once again to offer their popular Park
& Read program at more than 400 participating libraries across
the state. The program, now in its fourth year, offers
library card-holders the option of checking out a one-day
pass that waives the Recreation Passport entry fee into any of
Michigan's 101 state parks and recreation areas.
The one-day pass, a $10 savings, also provides free, one-time access to any of the more than 500 events scheduled to take place within the state parks throughout the summer. Passes are valid for seven days from checkout and are good for day use only. Park & Read runs now through Oct. 1, 2012.
Many participating parks even offer hammocks for loan. Set up under a shady tree and read, snooze or watch the clouds drift by.
The Park & Read pass is also valid at any of the 11 museums or historic sites within the Michigan Historical Museum system. These engaging places focus on themes in Michigan history, so why not learn about Michigan's fascinating history through your local library and then live it by visiting one of our great museums or historic sites?
