Passport America Members August_September 2010 Newsletter

Dear Member,

All of us here at Passport America hope you have had a great time traveling and camping this summer! We have added many new parks since the last email. So make sure to check the list of new parks before planning your Fall/Winter travels.

We are sending you this email today with website links to online updates, new online trip routing, Limited Offer – Lifetime Membership, info about two great participating parks in Canada and more!

All New FREE Trip Routing

We proudly announce the brand new free trip routing service now available on our website . We just launched it this week, and it is still in its very basic form. However, we will be adding more features and make improvements on this service as we receive your feedback.

With our FREE Trip Routing service you can:-

Route planning to your favorite destination(s).

Include multiple stops on your route.

Include Passport America affiliated campgrounds along your route.

Directory Updates

Now you have a couple ways to acquire updates regarding Passport America Participating Parks. For a printer friendly “print and go” version, just go to the campground section of our website and click on “directory updates”. Here is a quick link. Then, at the top of the page you will find the link for the printable directory update for our latest printed camping guide. Want just an “at a glance” list of new, cancelled, or just general park changes? You can find that on the website in the campgrounds section also. We do not recommend printing these lists, but they are still good for a quick list of new or cancelled PA Discount locations.
