DNREC State Parks, Zoo waive entry fees on Black Friday

DELAWARE – Delaware’s Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control has waived state park and zoo entry fees on Black Friday as part of the #OptOutside movement.

We’re told more than 7,000 organizations and seven million people nationwide participate in the #OptOutside campaign each year. Visitors to state parks can support and promote the movement on social media with the #OptOutside hashtag.

Those kindergarten age or older must bring face coverings with them to enter a park and wear them when they cannot maintain social distancing from other visitors, such as in bathhouses, concession buildings, and on trails where others are present. Face coverings are strongly encouraged for children ages 2 and older, unless a child has a medical condition that makes it hard to breathe or disability that prevents the child from wearing a face covering.
