Traverse City will be offering a mobile passport this spring break that will feature incentives for families to get outside and be active during the break from school.
Available through the Traverse City website, the mobile passport allows users to check into places like Mission Point Lighthouse, the TART trails, the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Dune Club along with a variety of other locations. Once five activities are checked off on the mobile passport, the participant is eligible for a free slice of pie gift card at Grand Traverse Pie Company. Gift cards can be picked up at the Traverse City Visitor Center. the fee passport also offers discounts and incentives at a yoga class, Great Lakes Children’s Museum, and Michigan Legacy Art Park.
“Spring is a great time to shake off the winter hibernation and get moving,” said Traverse City Tourism President Trevor Tkach. “Traverse City attracts hundreds of thousands of people to our hiking and biking trails, our lighthouses and other activities. We’re using this to promote healthy and active lifestyle activities.”
Tkach notes spring tourism to the region has grown dramatically in recent years. “The wineries are open, the amazing scenic road trips are a little less crowded, and the pace is a little less hectic. It becomes a perfect time to take in the Traverse City region,” said Tkach.
The Spring into Activity passport will be activated mid-February, but sign up is available by clicking here.
