The Iowa Sport Museum PASSPORT Program

The Iowa Sport Museum Alliance is comprised of six museums across Iowa which represent the state's diverse sports heritage industry. From balloons to baseball; motorcycles to sprint cars; wrestling to collegiate sports, the Iowa Sport Museum Alliance members offer something for everyone.

The PASSPORT program is designed to encourage and reward further study of Iowa's rich sports history. Participants can pick up a PASSPORT at any of the six member museums. When you travel around the state and visit each site you will receive a stamp inside of the PASSPORT to verify your visit. Once the PASSPORT is completed, it can be left at the last site visited or mailed to any of the participating museums and your name will be entered in a quarterly drawing for some exciting prizes.

These six museums are open year around, are accessible to persons with disabilities and all have Gift Shops on the premises. Admission fees and hours of operation vary so it is best to contact them in advance of your visit. Museum visits can be completed separately over the course of time or perhaps you can make a full weekend of travel around Iowa and see all of the museums in a single outing. There is no deadline by which the visits need to be completed. It is recommended that groups of 10 or more people traveling together should phone ahead to the museums for reservations.
