Indiana DNR to offer Free Admission to Veterans and Active Military on Veterans Day

INDIANA — In observance of Veterans Day this Wednesday, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is welcoming all veterans, active military personnel, and everyone riding in their vehicles with free admission to state properties.

The waiver covers all DNR-managed state parks, reservoir properties, state forest recreation areas, off-road recreation areas, and the Falls of the Ohio Interpretive Center.

“The Indiana DNR honors the service, sacrifice, and dedication of our veterans and military service members,” said Brandt Baughman, Indiana State Parks director. “For their commitment to the nation, we invite them to come explore our state parks and properties.”

To take advantage of the free entry, veterans and military service members simply need to inform the gate attendant upon arrival that they are a veteran or currently serving in the military. The complimentary admission extends to all passengers traveling in the same vehicle.
