Free Entrance to National Parks

Next week is not only Earth Week but also National Park Week! Starting on April 17th through the 25th, entrance fees for all 392 national parks in the United States will be waived. Many national parks have organized special events and volunteer activities in preparation for the week.

In addition, April 24th is National Junior Ranger Day, so next week is a perfect opportunity for kids and people of all ages to earn their junior ranger patches by attending ranger programs, picking up trash, and participating in other activities.

Please visit National Park Week's website for more information about events in your region.
