Museum of Dufferin family passes available at Shelburne Library

Written By ROSE DOTTEN

We have been provided with Family Passes for the MoD that can be signed out by our patrons. Each Family pass is “checked out” by a library patron for a maximum of seven days and is good for free admission to the MoD for a family (2 adults and up to 4 children). The pass is non-transferable and additional visitors will be charged full admission. The pass must be returned to the library so other patrons can check them out. If the pass is not returned the patron may be charged an “overdue” fee for the value of the pass ( $12.00) The passes cannot be placed on hold and the patron must wait three days before signing out again.

 We think this is a great opportunity to explore our wonderful Museum and highlights another partnership with YOUR library.
