Recreation areas unveil new fee machines

As part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, the St. Paul District recreation received funds to replace its pay boxes with new fee machines.

“Due to COVID-19 many things have changed, including the way we handle transactions at our parks,” Melissa Phelps, Cross Lake park ranger, said. The new fee machines are typically located near the entrance to the campground and are easily accessible from a vehicle or by walking up.

The fee machines are for day-use and people can use them to pay for showers, dump stations, boat launches and America the Beautiful passes.
