Fred brings up an interesting point about travelers for both events this weekend so I will post this on both pages:
Similar to the Metroparks vehicle annual pass, the Oakland County Parks offer their own pass as well. The Metroparks pass does not apply to Oakland County Parks. Those who do not live in the Oakland County, the fees are a little higher. Here is the info from their website on vehicle entry fees:
