This week, President Obama proclaimed June “Great Outdoors Month,” and with good reason. There’s a slew of celebrations during the month, including National Trails Day, National Fishing and Boating Week, National Get Outdoors Day, and the Great American Backyard Campout.
But before you start Googling all those, check out our list of Five Free Things offered this weekend, both Up North and state-wide. Read on…
- Free License to Fish
It’s “Take-A-Kid Fishing” weekend once again. Never a better time to teach your kid how to not catch fish, and you won’t need to buy a license for it. Details here. - Free admission to all Minnesota State Parks on Sunday
The MN-DNR will hold an Open House for all, with special family events at select parks. Details here. - Free entry, parking and camping at Voyageurs National Park (okay, they’re free year-round, but it’s a fantastic deal.) Details here.
And if you’re worried about the weather dampening any plans, - Free admission to Minnesota Historical Society museums and sites
Any or all of ‘em. Pick from 26 sites and museums to rescue a forecasted rainy weekend. Details and map of sites here.Hey, it’s Friday evening and you should leave your computer and rest up; you’ve got a lot of playing to do.

I recomend fishing. I just caught a nice rainbow trout. It was some of the best free fun you can have.
