Give the Gift of the Outdoors this Christmas
UNDATED - The DNR is offering a unique "outdoor" gift option for the upcoming holiday season.
Video games, TVs, iPads. You may have already picked out your holiday gifts on your shopping list. But what if you could give your loved ones a gift that lets them get outside and explore the great outdoors? The DNR is recommending Minnesota State Park gift cards for the nature enthusiast on your list.
The cards would allow your recipient to rent camper cabins, modern suites and even State Park apparel and books.
You can get a hold of a Minnesota State Park gift card by phone (866-85PARKS), online, or in person at any Minnesota state park.
