Free Summer Events for Military Families

No more pencils, no more books. No more teachers’ dirty looks! School is out and now the pressure is on moms and dads everywhere to keep boredom at bay for the next two to three months.

While every summer day can’t, and shouldn’t be, a costly, time consuming outing, museums and parks across the nation are offering sweet deals to military families this summer.

The nonprofit, Blue Star Families, has gathered support from hundreds of museums across the nation to offer free admission to military members and their families between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Visit their site for a complete map and listing.

Do you live near a National Park? You can be their guest as often as you like, for free.

The National Parks Service offers free annual passes to military members. These passes normally cost $80. The pass will allow the military member and up to three adults free entrance to sites where fees are charged. There is no entry fee for children 15 and under. The pass does not cover or provide a discount on fees for camping or boat launch. Apply for the pass in person when you enter the facility.

Learn more at their website.

Get out there and explore your nation’s finest museums and parks, for free!
