Support Sleeping Bear Dunes During the Shutdown
Support the Dunes
During the government shutdown, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is unable to sell park passes or collect entrance fees. These fees are an important source of funding that help support park operations, maintenance, and visitor services throughout the year.
You can help fill the gap. By donating the value of a park entrance fee, you’re helping protect the dunes, trails, beaches, and experiences that make this place so special.
Give now to support Sleeping Bear Dunes.
