Natural History Wanderings

from the National Park Service

Mark your calendar to celebrate the National Park Service’s 105th birthday on August 25, 2021! National parks across the country will be hosting in-park programs and virtual experiences. Entrance fees are also waived for everyone to come out to enjoy their national parks!

In honor of our 105th birthday, join us for a month-long celebration in August with a theme Park Scrapbooks. Generations of people have visited national parks for more than a century and continue to create new memories. Early park visitors sent postcards, captured photographs, and created scrapbooks to preserve memories and share with others. How do you capture or share your park memories and experiences? Videos, artwork, poetry, photographs, passport stamps, social media stories…the possibilities are endless.
