[Travelandtourism] Disabled Getting into National Parks Free

[Cindy Handel]

I wonder, first, why national parks would allow a blind person to get in 
free, and, secondly, why should others in the car with a blind person get in 
free?  If there's a fee to get into the park, is it really right to ask that 
the fee be waved, because we're blind, or because others are traveling with 
a blind person?

Hi everyone,

I read in the Braille Book Review a long time ago that a blind person can
request some sort of pass and get into national parks free.  And, if they
are riding with others, I think it said the entire carload of people can get
in free.  Now I am finally interested in following this up, and knowing
exactly which parks and perhaps museums, etc., will allow this.  Does
someone know whom I should contact?  Thanks.
Linda
