By Jennifer Hill September 18, 2014
To celebrate the East Bay Regional Park District's 80th birthday, they are offering FREE 3rd Fridays in the parks!

Fees will be waived for a variety of park services every third Friday of each month through the end of 2014. (Free third Friday dates: September 19, October 17, November 21 and December 19.)

On those Free 3rd Fridays, you won't have to pay for the following:
  • Parking
  • Boat launching*
  • Entry for horses and dogs
  • Swimming fees
  • District fishing permits**
  • Entry to Ardenwood Historic Farm in Fremont
*Boat launchers will still have to pay for the required invasive mussel inspection.

**Anglers will still have to possess a California state fishing license, for which there is a fee. 

There will still be fees for camping and for group picnic reservations.

So grab the calendar and add some East Bay Regional Park visits for the family!
