Volunteer, Park At The Beach Free

Each year Pinellas County sells annual beach parking passes. The passes allow beach goers to forgo paying the hourly meter rate while they enjoy the area’s beaches and waterways.

But did you know you can get a free annual parking pass by volunteering?

By completing 100 hours of volunteer service to the Parks and Conservation department you can get a free annual pass, according to the Pinellas County website.

The Friends of Fort De Soto are also providing annual passes to volunteers who donate a minimum of 25 hours to clean up and service at Fort De Soto Park.

For more information about the volunteer program call Pinellas County Parks and Conservation Resources at 727-582-2100.
