Active military, veterans can pick up free voucher in honor of National Military Appreciation Month
Oakland County Parks (OCP) is recognizing individuals who have served or are currently serving in the military with a recreation voucher for one of the following:
The recreation vouchers are only valid for Oakland County residents who must show proof of residency and a U.S. Department of Defense Common Access Card (CAC) or a valid Michigan driver’s license with Veteran designation; an Oakland County, state or federal Veteran ID Card (VIC); or form DD214, DD256 or NGB22.
Recreation vouchers must be claimed in person at these hours and locations.
The vouchers are non-transferable and are limited to one per eligible person. Vouchers expire Dec. 31, 2023; however, the waterpark and wave pool typically close for the season in late August and the campgrounds close in October. Vouchers are subject to facility capacity restrictions as necessary.
Veterans and active military personnel are eligible for a free annual vehicle permit that offers access to trails, dog parks, playgrounds, beaches at Groveland Oaks and Independence Oaks (seasonal) and fishing spots through Dec. 31, 2029. They also receive discounts at five golf courses.
