Free Admission to National Parks This Saturday
As America is celebrating the beginning of spring, and at the same time emerging slowly from a worldwide pandemic, things are starting to look up. Some of us have not emerged from quarantine mode in months, so seeking safe outdoor adventures is a welcome distraction as the temperatures are getting warmer.
So, it's a perfect time to celebrate the beauty of America during National Park Week. Every April, the National Park Service encourages citizens to "explore amazing places and discover stories of history and culture" at one of our officially designated parks across the nation. There are many state parks, local parks, trails, museums, and historic sites to choose from, and they will celebrate America's beautiful outdoors this year on April 17-25.
