Thank you so very much for the wonderful opportunity afforded to my family by the Adventure Pass through the library system.
My husband & I and our five children have only lived in the Detroit area a little less than four years, and we are constantly attempting to learn about our new home, its history, its rich heritage and the many wonderful reasons to be proud of our city. Because you're a part of the museum pass program we are enjoying so many local attractions and have a growing appreciation for Detroit and our fellow citizens.
Thank you for your support of this program.
Sincerely,

Because of the museum adventure pass, my family and I have experienced a wonderful opportunity to learn about our culture. It was so enlightening to find out and see with our eyes the hardships our people faced. Also, to see the talent that so many of our people have. It made my family appreciate that we should never take for granted our freedom and never waste time on petty things. Life is precious and we should live everyday as if it were the first.
