A Smart Way to Use Your Library Card
If you think that you have seen most of your Michigan city, and you’re starting to get a little bored with the “usual” places, you might want to start exploring a little farther around the state. The Michigan Activity Pass is the perfect place to start.
The Michigan Activity Pass (MAP) is a seven-day pass you can check out using your library card for one of Michigan’s cultural attractions, state parks, or recreation areas. This pass gives you access to so much more than just museums. We are talking fish hatcheries, railroads, and lighthouses.
There are over 400 MAP destinations right now, and that means there is truly something for everyone in your family. And, each year it gets better.
