Beat the Heat with Free Access to State Park Swimming Pools All Summer

As part of Governor Hochul’s “Get Offline, Get Outside” campaign, swimming pool entry fees will be waived at all New York State Parks this summer. Along with free access to pool swimming, the Governor has initiated a pilot program to offer free sunscreen at state park pools to stay safe in the sun and enjoy the outdoors. Helping to promote physical and mental health, as well as affordable experiences, the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation looks forward to welcoming individuals and families to all its locations during the summer months.
