Iowa Adventure Pass - FREE with Adult Library Card - New VENUE

Guthrie Center residents with a library card, have you been utilizing your Iowa Adventure Pass? As many of you are aware, the Friends of the Guthrie Center Library's financial commitment to sponsoring the Iowa Adventure Pass allows patrons with a Guthrie Center address to use their library cards to obtain Iowa Adventure Passes for three great venues.

New VENUE: Museum of Danish America, in Elk Horn. This pass can be reserved once per day per library and allows admission for up to 4 individuals.

The Iowa Adventure Pass will still allow two adults and two children to visit the Blank Park Zoo and the Science Center of Iowa, but it also offers new perks. This feature should be active at the IAP link on our library website.
