Museum Adventure Pass MAP is an online program. Library users with a valid library card can print a pass, either from home or at the library, to one of the nearly 60 participating institutions. The list includes the DIA, Meadowbrook Hall, and the Holocaust Memorial Center, to name a few.
Some cultural partners offer complimentary or reduced price admission; others, discounts in their gift shop or other exclusive offers for MAP pass holders only. Each Michigan Activity Pass expires within one week from the date it is printed. Each library will have five passes for each of the participating organizations available. Passes are for one-time use and are not transferable. The institution will collect the pass when you visit. Special exhibits may not be covered, and other exclusions may apply.
IMPORTANT:
1. When you print out a MAP pass, you have 7 days to use it.
2. Please note that if you choose to print your MAP pass on a library printer, you may be charged the regular fee that is assessed by the library for printing.
3. Copies of MAP passes will not be accepted at museums. Only original passes can be redeemed at museums.
I was listening to 100.3 one afternoon as I was delivering newspapers and Theresa from the station was talking about this great recipe. I decided to try it and it was great. My family loved it. It was simple and didn't cost alot (of course I did use some coupons)
Do you go Camping ?? Here's some >>>>>> Camping Tips
*** Make travel coffee bags out of coffee filters and dental floss.
Place a
scoop of coffee grounds into a coffee filter and tie it up with dental floss.
When you’re ready to brew, just make it like you would make tea in a teabag!
*** Freeze gallon jugs of water and place them in your cooler.
They’ll keep your food cold, and you’ll have plenty of water to drink for later.
> Other things you can freeze to use for later: pasta sauces, chili, and pesto.
