Librarian Secrets: Michigan Activity Pass

Spring Break is coming! If your family is staying in Michigan for Spring Break this year, consider trying the Michigan Activity Pass (MAP)! MAP is a program that lets you print FREE or discounted admission passes (or other exclusive offers) with your public library card to hundreds of Michigan state parks, campgrounds, museums, trails, arts & cultural destinations, and more! It is an awesome service for exploring the Great Lakes Bay Region.

Local kid-friendly destinations participating in the Michigan Activity Pass include:

• Saginaw Valley Naval Ship Museum (aka the USS Edson)
• BaySail/Appledore Tall Ships
• Bay City State Park
• Castle Museum of Saginaw County History
• Mid-Michigan Children’s Museum (Saginaw)
• Saginaw Art Museum (Saginaw)
• Michigan Heroes Museum (Frankenmuth)

With over 400 participating locations throughout Michigan, there is always a new destination to try! MAP allows you to check out one pass every 7 days with your library card number. Spring Break might not be long enough to make it to all of them but there is always summer vacation too!
