Ottawa County makes Lake Michigan parks free to low-income residents


Ottawa County makes Lake Michigan parks free to low-income residents
Low-income residents will get a break on admission to Ottawa County parks with a policy change approved by county commissioners Tuesday.
The county will waive its $12 annual fee for admission to Lake Michigan parks, including Tunnel and Kirk parks, to county residents who submit a written fee waiver request along with a copy of their Michigan Bridge card.
'The Parks and Recreation Commission recognizes the importance of outdoor recreation opportunities to the health and well-being of all people,' County Parks Director John Scholtz said."

Ain't being "poor" great!

The "Michigan Bridge Card", never leave home without it!

This is for the poor, right?........meebee our state can get one?
