CORPS OF ENGINEERS ANNUAL PASSES
Many Corps of Engineers recreation areas, including day-use parks and boat launching facilities
(not including
campgrounds) charge fees up to $4.00 daily. Annual passes
for those recreation areas are available at the Resource Project
Offices and some day-use parks for $30.00.
Holders of an
America the Beautiful Senior Pass, America the Beautiful Access
Pass, Golden Age Pass or Golden Access Pass may purchase one
Corps of Engineers annual pass at a 50 percent discount, provided
they purchase the pass in person.
Annual passes are good for one calendar year from the month they
are purchased. For example, a pass purchased in February
2007 will be valid through February 2008.
Annual
passes allow entry to Corps operated recreation areas but do not
allow entry to campgrounds. Passes are hangtags that are
typically hung from the rearview mirror. A sticker is
available for open-type vehicles such as motorcycles or jeeps.
Contact one of our
Visitor Centers for more information.
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL ACCESS
&
SENIOR PASSES
The Golden Passport Program
expired December 31, 2006 and the America the Beautiful
Senior
Passes and
Access
Passes replaced it.
Golden Passports
are still honored at Corps recreation sites, but can no longer be issued
by the Corps.
The
Corps honors the America the Beautiful passes, but is currently
not authorized to issue them. Visit the
Corps Lakes Gateway for more information.
America the Beautiful
Passes must be obtained from other federal land managing agency
facilities including those run by the USGS, U.S. Forest Service,
the National Park Service, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.
The

America the Beautiful passes and how to purchase them.
