Happy Birthday National Park Service

Today, August 25, is the birthday for the National Park Service.  Although the first National Park, Yellowstone, was established in 1872 it was not until 1916 that the National Park Service was established to manage the growing park system.

2016 will mark the 100th Anniversary of the National Park Service with planning starting to celebrate this milestone.
