Under NC SL 2024-45, Section 15.(a) to 15.(d), eligible veterans with service-connected disabilities can receive a free North Carolina State Parks Annual Pass with proof of eligibility. Note: the law specifies that only the veteran is eligible for this benefit, and it does not apply to spouses, caregivers or other members of the family.
Please request a pass by adding this item onto your shopping cart and checking out, and doing one of the following:
- If you would like to pick up your pass at a park, please bring a copy of your Summary of Benefits Letter from the federal Department of Veterans Affairs as proof of eligibility. Your letter can be accessed through the VA: Health and Benefits app or va.gov. Check ncparks.gov for park office and visitor center hours.
-
If you would like the pass mailed to you, please email a copy of your Summary of Benefits Letter to dpr.webstore@ncparks.gov and include whether you want the Annual Pass for Reservoirs, the Annual Pass, or the Annual Pass with Four-Wheel-Drive Beach Access. If you do not indicate which pass you want, you will receive the regular Annual Pass by default.
