Happy Birthday National Park Service!
On this (amazing) day today, in 1916,
President Woodrow signed the National Park Service Act,
or the Organic Act of 1916.
The mission of the Act is simple:
"...to conserve the scenery and the natural and
historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide
for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and
by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the
enjoyment of future generations."
And so we will continue to cherish, protect, and
enjoy the natural beauty of these monumental
places, now, and always, for all future
generations to enjoy!
We have been fortunate to witness some of these
majestic places, (Banff, Arches, Grand Canyon, Bryce, Zion)
and we are excited for futureendeavors to see even more!
Happy Birthday NPS!
We love you!
