All veterans and active-duty military personnel, and everyone in their vehicle, will be admitted free to DNR-managed state parks, reservoir properties, state forest recreation areas, and off-road state recreation areas on Veterans Day, Tuesday, Nov. 11.
This includes admission to Falls of the Ohio State Park's Interpretive Center.
"We honor the sacrifices and service of our veterans and active-duty military and look forward to recognizing them with a day exploring some of Indiana's most treasured natural places," said Brandt Baughman, director of Indiana State Parks.
Veterans and military personnel should simply tell the gate attendant at the property that they are either a veteran or serving and on active duty.
