Andreas Patterson, Nashville District’s Natural Resources Branch chief, said she hopes that volunteers and the public in general will take advantage of this free opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors on National Public Lands Day.
If you want to play rather than work, you can visit these for free.
In Washington, the State Parks and Recreation Commission has declared Saturday as free day; day-use visitors will not need a Discover Pass.
Sponsored by the National Environmental Education and Training Foundation, National Public Lands Day is the largest single-day, hands-on volunteer effort to improve and enhance federal, state and local public lands in the country. Park entrance stations will have the Interagency Senior and Annual passes available for those who wish to purchase them.

Washington State Parks will have one more “free day” in 2015: Wednesday, November 11, in honor of Veterans Day. In 2014, 175,000 volunteers served at over 2,000 sites in every state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Visit www.publiclandsday.org for more information and a list of project sites.
