The Big Sisters/Big Brothers program in the Olympia, WA area is offering a special fundraiser with tickets to Great Wolf Lodge in Grand Mound, WA for just $15/person for the day! It is very rare to ever see day passes and these tickets are going quickly. Hereâs the scoop on tickets:
Grand Canyon National Park has a $10 entrance fee (as at summer 2004). There is no entrance charge for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Although there may in theory be a charge for this park, there are no entrance stations and so no payment is required. Shenandoah National Park has a $10 entrance fee (as at summer 2007). Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks charge $10 entrance fee for one week (as at summer 2004), but a pass obtained for either of these parks is also valid at the other park. If you will be visiting a large number of National Park Service areas then the Golden Eagle Passport is worth considering.
