MEDORA, N.D. (AP) - Martin Luther King Jr. Day is among the days when the Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota will waive its entrance fees in 2015.
Eileen Andes with the national park in Medora says wildlife watching opportunities are "spectacular" this time of the year. The park will also waive its camping fees on Jan. 19.
The National Park Service will not charge entrance fees on eight other days in 2015, including Presidents Day weekend; the opening of National Park Week; the National Park Service's 99th birthday; National Public Lands Day; and Veterans Day.
In addition, Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site near Williston and Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site near Stanton are among the more than 200 national parks that never charge entrance fees.
