Peoria Park District Offers Perks to Furloughed Federal Workers

Admission to some Peoria Park District facilities is now free to furloughed federal workers. Fees for the Peoria PlayHouse Children’s Museum and the Owens Recreation Center will be waived for the duration of the government shutdown for affected federal employees and immediate family members. The Peoria Zoo is offering free admission through February 15. Proper federal identification is necessary to take advantage of the free admission offers.
