One Pass – Many Adventures
Adventure Pass Returns
Iowa Libraries provide free passes to area attractions for a day of family fun! Passes allow entrance for two (2) adults and two (2) children. Additional tickets can be purchased at the venue.
For Norwalk Easter Public Library: Adults, 18 years of age and older, with a valid library card that is non-expired and in good standing may reserve passes by using the button below.
Please note: Access to this service from Norwalk Easter Public Library is available to Norwalk and rural Warren County residents only. Residents of Carlisle, Indianola, Lacona, Milo, and New Virginia should visit their home public library to obtain a library card to borrow Adventure Passes through funding from Warren County (thank you to the Warren County Board of Supervisors!). Residents of Cumming must work with West Des Moines Public Library per their City contract for library services to obtain Adventure Passes. Several metro area libraries are also part of the Iowa Adventure Pass, so please check with your local library to see if this service is available in your community.
Patrons must present their pass confirmation—either as a printed copy, an email on their device, or through a digital wallet—along with a photo ID that matches the name on the reservation.
Each patron is allowed to reserve passes from each of our participating venues once each calendar year (previously it had been once every 365 days).
Passes cannot be used for any other special member events (e.g. Zoo Brew or Night Eyes).
Please cancel your reservation if you cannot use the pass at the reserved time. To cancel a reservation, call the library at 515-981-0217.
Check open dates of any venue before you reserve your pass.
