Parks around here that charge admission are Shenandoah, Antietam, and Harpers Ferry. About $20/car I think. Make some use of it at your local parks - that's why the program was created!
Agree. The 4th grade pass spurred us on to visit a lot of nearby places that related to what kids study in 4th and 5th grade (for us, Virginia studies and then US history). It wasn’t so much about the savings as the fun challenge to use the pass as many times as possible in a year.
