The Pass Is Back!
CT has 800 miles of hiking trails; 2,000 miles of rivers and streams; 1,300 campsites in 14 parks; 9 historic sites, and 237 lakes and ponds. Combine these recreational, educational, and natural features with 139 state parks and forests and you've got No Child Left Inside 2009, a free way to enjoy CT's great outdoors with your family.
State Park Pass @ your library
The Connecticut Library Consortium and the CT DEP have partnered to provide one CT state park day pass to public libraries across the state, yours included. Beginning April 18th, you may borrow the pass to obtain free parking at state parks where fees are charged and free admission to any museum located within a park. This summer, we'll be using donated funds to purchase a second pass to help meet local demand for free recreational opportunities.
Other Museum Passes
The Friends of the East Hampton Public Library, an all-volunteer organization, have been funding our museum pass program for more than a decade. Check out library pass offerings and please consider joining the Friends or patronizing the Friends Bookstore, which features gently used materials that you may purchase at very low cost.
