Florida State Parks Offer Free Admission to All on Veterans Day
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection announced in Tallahassee on November 9 that Florida State Parks will offer free admission to all visitors on Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11.
The free admission applies to day use only and excludes Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, Skyway Fishing Pier State Park and Weeki Wachee Springs State Park. All other fees, including overnight accommodations, concessions and rentals, remain in effect. The announcement highlighted parks with ties to military history, including Fort Clinch State Park in Nassau County.
DEP Secretary Alexis A. Lambert said this Veterans Day is especially poignant as the nation marks 250 years of independence. Florida State Parks also offer year-round benefits, including a 25 percent discount on annual entrance passes for active-duty and honorably discharged veterans and free lifetime military entrance passes for veterans with service-connected disabilities.
