National parks to offer fee-free weekends

http://www.cnn.com/2009/TRAVEL/06/02/parks.waive.fees/index.html

Since the summer weather is coming, many people are expected to go out on vacation and to the parks. The federal government is hoping that  waiving fees at national parks will help this economy rise. On three weekends this summer, the National Park Service will offer fee-free weekends to encourage families that are tight on money to visit the parks. I chose this article because it caught my attention really quick, maybe because of the "fee-free". I am for the "fee-free" but I don't think it will get many people to go out to the parks because I am pretty sure that not only for the park will the families  spend on but for other stuff as well. I do think the information was presented fairly because it just might get families to go. I would use CNN again, it is the best.
