Public to be Admitted Free-Of-Charge to Mesa Verde National Park on Veterans Day!
All National Park Service sites across the country, including Mesa Verde National Park, will offer free visitor admission on Wednesday, November 11, 2009. The fee waiver applies to entrance fees only. The duration of the free permit issued November 11 is for one day only regardless of the park's usual standard entrance permit period. Commercial tour entrance fees will not be waived.
 
This annual fee-free day is in addition to National Public Lands Day, which is another annual fee-free day held in September and the three fee-free weekends during this past summer season.
 
The Association deeply appreciates the sacrifices that all our men and women of the armed forces have made. We hope you will come enjoy the extraordinary cultural and natural resources of Mesa Verde National Park this Veterans Day.
The Mesa Verde Association is a joint membership program of the Mesa Verde Museum Association and the Mesa Verde Foundation. Your MVA membership supports both of these 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations.
