Check Out Wisconsin State Parks At Your Library!

Are you the outdoorsy type who longs to spend their summer hiking, biking, camping, and exploring all that Mother Nature has to offer?

Starting on June 9, you can check out a pass to visit a Wisconsin State Park for FREE! According to the WI DNR, "Check Out Wisconsin State Parks At Your Library is a collaborative effort between the DNR, the Wisconsin Association of Public Libraries, and the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. The goal of the program is to expand access to Wisconsin State Park System properties to new visitors." Okay, that's pretty cool right?

Here's everything you need to know:

  • To make it fair for all of our patrons, there will be a limit of ONE pass per family per month.
  • Library staff will need to write the date that you plan to visit the state park on the pass. This could be the current day's date or any date this summer. The pass will only be valid on the date you select. 
  • You can visit more than one Wisconsin State Park System location on that same day!
  • Passes are valid for one vehicle with Wisconsin license plates. (Excluding busses)
  • You will also receive a swag bag filled with information about the state park system, maps, stickers, accessibility information, and more.
  • Passes do not need to be returned to the library after being used.
  • Passes and swag bags are available while supplies last.
