Only trouble is I'm not running off of tax payer money, I pay taxes. Yes, we got a grant from the visitors association to upgrade the courses, but that's a one time shot in the arm. If the state park system was trying to run on fee alone as we are, they would be much higher than us (we run on a shoestring budget). They get tax money, lottery dollars and such, and if you figure that it's your money (your tax money) plus what you're paying for a pass there, those passes you buy are a lot more than the $3 per car they now charge (it's going up to $5 Jan 1). So no, I think we offer a lot for a $60 a year pass, that's pro-rated through out the year. Thanks for the idea anyway. One way we do keep it to only $3 a person or $60 a year is because we do a lot of things here, all at low cost, but enough to get by. I could not have just a disc golf course and make a life out of that, it's part of the bigger pie of the park as a whole.
