CONCORD, NH – The NH Mobile Vaccine Van will offer free COVID-19 vaccines at state parks through September 30. DHHS has partnered with the New Hampshire Department of Natural & Cultural Resources (DNCR) to make it easy for people to get vaccinated while out and about at New Hampshire state parks.

Anyone who is vaccinated at these locations will receive a complimentary day pass to any New Hampshire State Park or historic site for use any time until 12/31/2022. The day pass does not include meter parking, camping, Cannon Mountain Ski Area, The Flume Gorge or Cannon Mt. Aerial Tramway.

โ€œAs New Hampshire prepares for a busy fall tourism season, we continue make vaccination as easily available as possible,โ€ said Governor Chris Sununu. โ€œTake in the great outdoors at our pristine state parks, and get the vaccine all while youโ€™re there โ€“ a win-win!โ€

โ€œOne of the ways we have continued to make the vaccine as accessible as possible is through our mobile vaccine van,โ€ Patricia Tilley, Director of Public Health Services stated. โ€œWorking with DNCR, we wanted to create an opportunity to reach those who may be delaying getting vaccinated. Now is the time.โ€

โ€œWe welcome thousands of New Hampshire residents and visitors to our many state parks each day,โ€ DNCR Commissioner Sarah Stewart said. โ€œWe are thrilled to partner with DHHS in order to make the vaccine as easy and accessible as possible.โ€
