MEDORA, ND: Celebrate the National Park Service birthday with a visit to Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Entrance fees will be waived in honor of the 101^st birthday of the National Park Service, Friday, August 25, 2017. 

The National Park Service will waive entrance fees on three more days in 2017: National Public Lands Day on September 30; and Veterans Day Weekend, November 11-12.
 
The two other national park units in North Dakota – Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site, near Williston and Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site, near Stanton, are among the more than 200 national parks that never charge entrance fees.
