If this summer you want to get out and explore the mitten state, but you’re on a budget, there’s some good news!

Are you a Michigan library card holder?  You can access hundreds of Michigan’s state parks, historic sites, recreation areas and campgrounds for either free or discounted admission through the Michigan Activity Pass.

This year the program has expanded to include admission to Grand Rapids Treetop Adventure Park and the Mitten Theater in Plymouth.

If you’re interested in using a Michigan Activity Pass, you’ll have to plan ahead.  The program has changed a bit from when it started.  Now each library has 5 passes to check out to cardholders a week. So, you’ll definitely want to start at michiganactivitypass.info to make sure the park and library you go to have passes when you want them.
