President Obama established “Every Kid in a Park,” a program which gives free entry to all USFS parks in the country to all fourth grade students.
In Lake Tahoe, all students signed up for the program also get a free Christmas Tree permit from the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit as supplies last.
Fourth graders need to present the paper voucher or Every Kid in a Park pass at the USFS office located at 35 College Drive in South Lake Tahoe.
To obtain the paper voucher and to learn more about the Every Kid in a Park program, visit www.EveryKidinaPark.gov.
