Juneteenth

California residents have a limited-time chance to enter California State Parks for free for the rest of the year. Governor Gavin Newsom announced the offer on Tuesday, tying the move to Juneteenth and the nation’s 250th anniversary. The special version of the Historian Passports normally costs $50 and covers admission for up to four people at more than 30 historic state parks across the Golden State. According to abc30.com, residents can claim the free passes from June 16 through July 6.
