Adventure Pass!

The Adventure continues!

Douglas County Libraries offers library card holders Adventure Pass: free passes to metro-area cultural institutions! Our 2012 partners include Dinosaur Ridge, Prairie Preschool at Plains Conservation Center, and The Wildlife Experience . You may reserve and print passes to any of the Adventure Pass venues from your own computer up to 30 days before your visit.

Dinosaur Ridge is a collection of trails and exhibits designed to help you explore prehistoric Colorado, including real dinosaur tracks and bones millions of years old! We have purchased two passes per day for Dinosaur Ridge, each of which admits up to four people and includes a guided tour.

The Plains Conservation Center is an outdoor education facility and state-designated natural area consisting of two sites on more than 8,800 acres. It brings the natural wonder of the prairie to you by preserving a remnant of the Colorado plains, educating the public about its natural and cultural heritage, and nurturing sound conservation and environmental ethics. We have purchased two passes to Prairie Preschool, which meets every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 to 10 a.m. Each pass admits two children.

The Wildlife Experience connects visitors with wildlife and habitats in a fun and educational environment. Four passes will be offered per day, each admitting up to four people, into the museum. Passes will be limited to one pass per barcode per quarter. Each pass also allows $2 off admission to the Extreme Screen Theater and 10% off purchases in the café and gift shop.

Take advantage of this great service soon...and let the adventure begin!  If you have a great time, please consider supporting these organizations by purchasing a membership.
