Maine State Museum will welcomes veterans free of charge beginning July 1

AUGUSTA — The Maine Bureau of Veterans’ Services recently announced that starting July 1, Maine veterans may visit the Maine State Museum in Augusta free of charge upon showing their Maine resident lifetime veteran park pass.

While the current $3 admission fee may seem nominal, many veterans find themselves living on fixed incomes. Allowing veterans free access to the museum is a small gesture of gratitude for a population who have sacrificed greatly.
Park pass applications may be found on the bureau’s website, www.maine.gov/veterans/benefits.
