Annual free entry to Vermont parks and historic sites this weekend
MONTPELIER, Vt. (ABC22/FOX44) – Even with some potential showers on Saturday, it's going to be a good weekend to 'explore everything that state parks have to offer', according to state parks director Nate McKeen.
Vermont Days are happening on June 14 and 15, and with them free entry to all Vermont State Parks and State Historic Sites along with a multitude of events for the whole family.
Vermont State Historic Sites will return starting May 16
Included in the weekend's specials is the statewide Summer Free Fishing Day, as previously covered by MyChamplainValley. Grand Isle will hold its own fishing festival event on Saturday, with activities from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. including basic fishing lessons and fishing-related activities for young anglers and their families.
History buffs can look forward to the opening of the Vermont History Museum in Montpelier, a Flag Day celebration at the Bennington Battle Monument, kite flying at other historic sites, and a lecture on John Hancock, the first man to sign the Declaration of Indepedence, by a historian at Mount Independence.
More information on Vermont Days can be found at and on Vermont state parks at their official government website.
