Homeschool month coming soon

Today I am contacting homeschool groups to let them know that next month is April homeschool month. All homeschool students and their families will receive special discounts the entire month of April. Homeschool families visiting our Kentucky or Texas location will receive admission for $5. Homeschool families visiting the Florida location will receive $8 admission in April.

In an effort to meet the needs of the expanding homeschool market that often travels in smaller educational group sizes, any home school student, home school teacher, and their siblings, can receive the April discount. Park officials request home school documentation to receive discount.
