Free entrance at National Parks this weekend (August 14 & 15)!

America’s Best Idea – the national parks – gets even better this year with several fee-free days at more than 100 national parks that usually charge entrance fees*.  Check this listing for parks in your state and plan a weekend outing for your family!

Mark your calendar for fee-free days this year:

■  April 17-25, 2010 (National Park Week)
■  June 5-6, 2010
■  August 14-15, 2010
■  September 25, 2010 (Public Lands Day)
■  November 11, 2010 (Veterans Day)

And to make the fun even more affordable, many national park concessioners are joining the National Park Service in welcoming visitors on this summer’s fee free weekends with the their own special offers.

Here’s a tip – many of your 392 national parks NEVER charge an entrance fee. So start Planning Your Visit!

*Fee waiver includes: entrance fees, commercial tour fees, and transportation entrance fees. Other fees such as reservation, camping, tours, concession and fees collected by third parties are not included unless stated otherwise.
