New York State Parks Announces Empire Passport Cyber Monday Special

The New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation on Thursday announced the agency will offer a one-day only deal on Cyber Monday, Dec. 1, for its Empire Passport.

The online-only special reduces the price of the 3-Year Empire Passport to $130, an additional savings off the already discounted standard price of $165, state officials said.

“New York’s outdoors is the four-season destination of choice for adventure and fun, and a multi-year Empire Passport makes it that much easier for family and friends to explore the parks,” State Parks Commissioner Rose Harvey said in a statement. “With our Cyber Monday special purchase, it’s like buying two years and getting the third for free! Imagine all the hiking, boating, picnicking, biking, swimming and more that you can enjoy, while making memories that will last a lifetime.”

Valid from the date the passport is received through March 31, 2018, the 3-Year Empire Passport will provide holders unlimited vehicle access to all state parks, nature centers, recreation areas, boat launch sites, arboretums and park preserves, in addition to 55 forest preserve sites operated by the state Department of Environmental Conservation, officials said.

The special offer is available for online purchases of the 3-Year Empire Passport at nysparks.com on Cyber Monday from midnight- 11:59 p.m. Orders will be shipped within seven business days. Previous purchasers of the 3-Year Empire Passport are excluded from the offer.
