REason to Buy TX. State Park Pass

You get the FREE year's subscription to Texas Park & Wildlife if you purchase your pass before June 2006. That's one reason

Reason #2: I just got my official pass in the mail & included with it were 4 coupons good for 50% off 1 night of camping at ANY state park! Good for any campsite or screened shelter. At the minimum, this will be a savings of nearly $30!!

So..... what are you waiting for??!!!!!

Re: REason to Buy TX. State Park Pass

Hehe... we renewed ours weekend before last, at Guadalupe River State Park near our home.

You can also buy the passes at any REI store and save 10% if you're a REI Co-Op member.

Re: REason to Buy TX. State Park Pass

We always buy ours, one for each car. Is the subscription a new give away? Never saw that before.

Also, remember that Pittman Robertsonhttp://www.animallaw.info/statutes/stusfd16usc669.htm means that all the money from hunting licenses goes directly to support TPWD and can not be diverted into the general fund.

Yep. Started it last year just after we renewed. Don't know if it's going to continue through this year but will see.

Happy Camping!

Fortunately now, the window stickers are gone and one pass covers ANY car you decide to drive into the park.

Justin and I also buy two cards because we aren't always together or in the same vehicle when we visit a park. Besides, the money goes to TPWD and supports our parks, so we view it as money to a good cause.

Re: REason to Buy TX. State Park Pass

I'm all for giving to good causes. Was only pointing out that the "one pass fits one car" rule was no longer in effect.

For us, that's an added benefit as we do not always wish to take our behemoth (aka, Ford Expedition) each time we visit the local parks.
