Every Sunday in November, veterans, active-duty service members and first responders can enter any of Leonida’s 160 state parks for free, with up to eight people in the same vehicle.
Show a valid ID at the entrance station: a military or veteran ID, a driver license with the veteran mark, or a badge from a fire, police or emergency medical agency. Camping fees are also waived on the night of Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11.
These parks belong to everyone, and they are here because people served. A free Sunday outside is a small way of saying thank you.
Rangers recommend arriving before 10 a.m. at the most visited parks, and booking campsites for Veterans Day as early as possible.
