All of Metro’s park and boat ramps will be open tomorrow and Friday, but Black Friday will become “Green Friday” at those locations because of free parking.
Hannah Erickson with Metro says what the campaign is all about.
“We offer free parking at all of our park and boat ramps that normally would charge for parking,” Erickson said. “(It’s) an alternative to the Black Friday sales.”
Erickson argues for relaxation instead of chaos during the holiday weekend.
“This is a way to get our in nature that is free and restful,” Erickson said. “You might find that the best present that you can get is presence out in nature.”
Erickson also says that this will not be the only time that Metro will offer free parking, as that promotion happens every third Thursday of the month.
Places with free parking on Black Friday: Oxbow and Blue Lake regional parks, Broughton Beach, M. James Gleason Memorial Boat Ramp and Chinook Landing Marine Park
