    • Which Senior Pass for the Okeechobee Waterway?

      Readers have mentioned the use of a “senior pass” when docking in the Okeechobee Waterway: /?p=141594. Skipper Will asks for clarification as to which senior passes are accepted in the Waterway. My guess would be the National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Senior Pass (62 and older, $10/life.) If you have a better or different answer, please let us hear from you!

      Great Info [link above] -Thanks very much-looking forward to using the Okeechobee myself this fall. Which GOLDEN AGE pass is the one in play here- there are so many, and with different virtues?
      Thanks, Will

      Aren’t you glad we asked: it’s $10 for life! As Skipper Bennight says: the best government fee ever!

      Yes the Senior Pass from the NPS -formerly known as the Golden Age Pass http://www.nps.gov/findapark/passes.htm $10 for life works its magic not only at National Parks but various other federal recreation areas. In this case it gets you half off the normal $24/night slip fee’¦..

      The Senior pass is offered by the U.S, Park Service and is good for all national parks but not state or county parks. It is not issued at every park so check ahead.

      The National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass is indeed for those of us 62 and older but that $10 pass is a Lifteime Pass ‘“ not annual. (The best $10 government fee ever.) It is available to a U.S. Cirizen or permanent resident.

      Boy, I’ve never heard of this and I’ve been across it several times, both directions.
