News Release Date: November 13, 2024
Contact: Fort Davis National Historic Site to begin 6-month cashless fee collection exercise starting Monday November 18, 2024. Transition to electronic payments reduces transaction times, saves money, and improves accountability. Fort Davis, Texas— November 18, 2024, Fort Davis National Historic Site will begin a 6-month fully cashless fee system and only accept mobile (Apple Pay/Google Pay) and electronic payments (credit/debit cards) for entrance and permit fees. Visitors who are only able to pay with cash may do so only with exact change. Entrance fees are an important source of revenue used to improve the visitor experience in national parks, including road and facility repairs and maintenance, trail improvements, installation of accessible exhibits, visitor and resource protection services, and more. Cashless systems allow parks to be better stewards of visitor dollars by reducing the amount of time park staff spend managing cash, increasing the amount of fee revenue available to support critical projects and visitor services, and improving accountability and reducing risk. More information about visiting the park can be found at our park website: Fees & Passes - Fort Davis National Historic Site (U.S. National Park Service) |
