Greetings from Independence National Historical Park
Keeping visitors away from the birthplace of America for all those days was nothing less than a sin. To see Independence Hall, Congress Hall, the Liberty Bell -- and to learn how we came into being -- are essential experiences that should not be denied to Americans or international visitors.…

Greetings from Glacier National Park
It was summer 1963 and I was three and a half years old. In a few months President Kennedy would be assassinated, followed in six weeks by the birth of my little brother. But it was our driving trip from our home in Minnesota through Montana and to Glacier National…

Greetings from Grand Canyon National Park
I spent over $4,000 and a year of planning to stay in both the North and South Rims. Because of the government shutdown, I was denied access to both. Your organizations needs to work to stop this "hostage taking" of our national parks system. I am so angry and sad.…

Greetings from Badlands National Park
My youngest daughter and I went to the Badlands on a girls weekend her junior year of high school. We camped, survived a hailstorm, made cocoa, and watched a billion stars come out together. You can't put a price on the memories we made. It's astounding that the Federal government…
