So, enjoy $1 brats, hot dogs and ice cream on Thursday, then come back for more fun with any one of these great ways to save:
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday- All Day/Any Gate:
· Free Military Admission for the men, women, and their families, who proudly serve the United States military and have an active military I.D.
