    Can we get a pass for our trip that begins on November 19th? We live in Alabama and fly out on the 19th so I wasn’t sure if it would arrive in time before we leave?
    Thank you, Margie Fallen 334-320-3008

      Hi Margery, unfortunately this particular pass was only available in celebration of the League’s centennial celebration, which was in 2018 – but the Golden Poppy Annual Pass is still available through California State Parks. Here is a link to their site for more information on the available passes. We hope you have a great trip!
