Buy your virtual slice of Sleeping Bear

From staff reports

Proceeds go to Preserve Historic Sleeping and the National Park Foundation, which is the national charitable partner of the National Park Service. Purchase as many inches as you want. Each inch selected costs $1 a month ($12 annually) and is authenticated with a personalized “GoodDEED” certificate that stylishly notes your name, your personal latitude/longitude coordinates, and recognizes your contribution.

When you purchase your virtual space the site allows you to share pictures and stories describing why this Park is so special to you. You can also share it through Facebook, Twitter, email and more, and invite your friends or family to claim the inch next to you or in their favorite spot in the Park. Or, create a memorial for a loved one or give it as a gift.

Each virtual inch you choose in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is exclusive just to you; no one else can own it. It is automatically renewed annually unless you cancel. Buyers will receive an email reminder prior to the renewal.
