I am a life member of the DAV-I have also contemplated joining the Legion and participating in their week vacation deals that let you vacation at nice locals for a fraction of what it normally would cost.

dogface Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I used mine last week at Yosemite, everyone in the car free. I got the card by presenting my service connection award letter to the ranger after I first got it a few years ago. We go camping for half price too!

Notorious Kelly Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Yes, dogface - it was pretty sweet getting waved thru Yellowstone last year. Regular fee is $25. Ranger even thanked me for my service. When the great desk clerk at Portland, OR VARO signed me up, I never thought I'd use it. Since then, free and reduced price camping and National Park fee waivers have been really sweet. I encourage everyone to apply for their benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder jbasser Posted July 18, 2011 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 18, 2011 This is a great benefit for disabled folks. I remember 2 years ago the Forest service contractor who runs the campgrounds had convinced the Forest service to do away with it so they could make more money. Thanks to a good campaign from folks like us it was defeated. Always be watchful as these birds will try it again down the road. We had a good show on it at the SVT page so it is there for folks to listen to it. Basser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
