This is a great opportunity to share photos of you, family and friends from visits to our National Parks. Please see the request from the National Park Foundation I have posted below. Thanks.

To own is to have; to share with friends, is to enjoy.

Dear Catherine,

I'm excited to tell you about a fun way you can help our national parks with your photos.

Our staff spends a lot of time educating the country’s leaders about the threats facing our national parks, from funding shortfalls to maintenance backlogs, even climate change and air pollution. But our work is about much more than these issues--we’re also fighting to protect the memories you haven’t yet made.

And that’s where you come in. You’ve visited these places... by yourself, with your family, and with your friends. We want to see photos of you visiting our national parks so we can remind our leaders what's really at stake. Show us what you’ve got!

We want photos of you smiling at the end of a long hike to a mountaintop… exhausted after paddling upstream for hours… following the footsteps of a Civil War soldier. Send us some of your favorite moments, and we’ll feature the best images in our next advocacy video this spring.

Watch a short video that shows you what we’re looking for, then...share your photo by Thursday, February 21.


They say a picture is worth a thousand words. So just think what a few hundred pictures will say to our decision makers.

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,



Scott Kirkwood
