Two History Nebraska sites are participating in summer programs designed to get you out on the road.
Two History Nebraska sites are participating in summer programs designed to get you out on the road.
Chimney Rock National Historic Site is part of the Nebraska Passport program, while Neligh Mill State Historic Site is part of the Great Park Pursuit. Both of these programs are fun ways to visit Nebraska sites and win prizes. Here’s how they work:
Nebraska Passport
- At each Passport stop participants visit they receive a stamp, either in a Nebraska Passport booklet or a digital stamp on the Nebraska Passport App. It is acceptable for an individual to collect stamps in both the booklet and the app and submit all their stamps for prizes.
- Stamps can be collected from May 1 to September 30.
- Participants then turn in their stamps and receive prizes.
- There is no fee to participate in the Nebraska Passport program. There is no purchase necessary to receive Passport stamps at the Passport stops.

Great Park Pursuit
The Great Park Pursuit (GPP) encourages participants to visit up to 20 GPP sites located across Nebraska between May 1 and September 17, 2018. Players follow clues that will lead them to a GPP post, where they use a pencil to make an impression of the post or use the mobile app to prove they were there. Prizes and entry into drawings are based on the number of impressions collected. The grand prize is an outdoor recreation package with a retail value of $750.
