Save in Salem with the MassValuePass

The third iteration of the MassValuePass is currently in circulation, and it can save you money! If you are not able to download a pass from MassVacation.com, or you download your pass, print it out, and then leave it on top the dishwasher, not to be remembered until you are 100 miles from home (I'm just saying - stranger things have happened), stop into the National Park Service Salem Regional Visitor Center, 2 New Liberty Street. They have printed copies of the pass and would be happy to provide you with one.

Here are the sites and accommodations in Salem that are participating in the Pass:
