Go to a Washington State Park, National Park for free on Tuesday

Want to play in a state park or national park but not pay for a pass? Tuesday is your day!

The National Park Service is celebrating its 104th birthday meaning free service is allowed to more than 100 state parks and national parks across the country.

That means a Discover Pass won't be necessary. Legislation was created in 2011 requiring a Discover Pass to access state parks, and also allowed the Parks and Recreation Commission to designate as many as 12 free days each year.

See a list below of the remaining free state park days this year, and find out more information here.

• Aug. 25 - National Park Service 104th Birthday
• Sept. 13 - Make-up Spring Day / Girl Scouts Love State Parks Weekend 
• Sept. 26 - National Public Lands Day
• Oct. 10 - World Mental Health Day 
• Nov. 11 - Veterans Day
