In Hampton Roads we are very lucky to be surrounded by fantastic museums, zoos, aquariums and amusement parks. One of my favorite gift suggestions with military discounts available comes from annual memberships.
MEMBERSHIPS
A great holiday gift is the gift of membership to some of the local museums, amusement parks, zoos, etc. Often children receive toys or electronics for the holidays but what we love about giving the gift of membership is it is something that gets the family together doing an activity with learning involved. Memberships are something that will pay for themselves over and over. The membership opportunities listed below all offer a military discount!
Busch Gardens Williamsburg & Water Country USA
Everyone loves Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Water Country USA! However, it can get expensive buying those memberships. What a great opportunity to give a gift that will get used over and over involving family fun. Military Discounted Memberships can be purchased at your local MWR/ITT offices. Visit Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Water Country USA on MilitaryBridge to learn more about their membership pricing.
The Mariners' Museum & Park
A membership to the Mariners' Museum makes the perfect gift! There is tons to do and see at the museum year-round. The Mariners' Muesum also offers a 10% military discount off membership. You can learn more about The Mariners' Museum on MilitaryBridge.
Virginia Living Musem
One of my personal favorite museums in Hampton Roads. We have had a membership for 10 years and it never gets old. My kids love going to the VLM to check out new exhibits or enjoy a walk outside. It is a favorite for us. This is a membership that will get used over and over and makes a perfect holiday gift especially for children.
The VLM offers a 10% military discount off membership and they have several membership packages. Learn more about the VLM and their military discount on MilitaryBridge.
The Virginia Zoo
Another fantastic membership to have as a family. This will pay for itself over and over. The Virginia Zoo also offers a military discount on membership with a military id. The current rate is $89 which includes: Two adults living in the same household and members’ children or grandchildren (18 years and younger). This membership must be purchased in person at the Zoo’s Membership Office with a valid, government-issued photo ID.
Another huge plus to the Virginia Zoo membership is reciprocal membership offering either free or discounted admission to other Zoos nationwide. AS A MEMBER BENEFIT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE RECIPROCAL ADMISSIONS AGREEMENTS. LEARN MORE HERE. Learn more about The Virginia Zoo on MilitaryBridge.
The Children's Museum of Virginia
This is by far one of the best children's museums I have been too. My kids love it! Another membership opportunity that would pay for itself over and over. Plus, they offer a military discount off memberships. Military Members and dependents enjoy a 10% Military Discount off Membership with military id! If your looking to score the perfect family holiday gift this would be it! Learn more about The Children's Museum of Virginia on MilitaryBridge.
Sam's Club
Buying a Warehouse Membership is always a great holiday gift! Sam's Club offers cash gift card when you purchase a membership for military. Learn more about Sam's Club Membership on MilitaryBridge.
GIFTS,TICKETS & RESTAURANT GIFT CARDS
Some of our favorite holiday gift ideas from local businesses come from:

RESTAURANTS
Many restaurants will offer great savings on gift cards over the holiday season. Most haven't released them yet, but year after year great offers come out. Keep your eyes open for savings on gift cards from your favorite restaurants. Tons of local restaurants offer a military disocunt but these are not available off their gift cards. However, the holiday gift card deals are typically better than any other deal you'll get. Put together a package of movie tickets with a great meal and your all set with a fantastic gift!
