We recently vacationed in Florida. While there we gained free admission using the NARM reciprocal from our de Schweinitz Historic Bethlehem membership to Edison and Ford Winter Estates in Ft. Myers. Time did not allow but we also could have visited Art Museums in Naples.
This is a great perk to have while helping our local historical museums.
