Free admission to all state park properties on Black Friday.
INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is encouraging Hoosiers to get outside over the Thanksgiving holiday.
The DNR will offer free admission on November 29 to all Indiana State Park properties that normally charge a gate fee.
In addition to the 24 state parks, local participating properties include Brookville Lake.
“Visit any of our properties on the Friday after Thanksgiving, and you’ll score the best Black Friday deal around – free admission to explore the beautiful scenery and the chance to get away from it all, relax and recharge,” said Dan Bortner, DNR director
