Every Kid in a Park pass provides free access for fourth-graders
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park encourages all fourth-graders to visit the park for free this year as part of the Every Kid in a Park program. The program gives fourth-grade students and those accompanying them free access to more than 2,000 public lands and waters nationwide for a year.
The Every Kid in a Park pass is valid for a full calendar year from the time of issue. The pass grants free entry for fourth-graders and up to three accompanying adults (or an entire car for drive-in parks) to most federally managed lands and waters.
