David Morris, former Olympic National Park superintendent, will share thoughts and reflections from his three and a half years with the Peace Corps in Africa at the upcoming Friends of Olympic National Park (FONP) membership meeting on Thursday, March 29 at 7:00 p.m.
The program and meeting are both open to the public and will be held at the Olympic National Park Visitor Center at 3002 Mount Angeles Road in Port Angeles.

Morris and his wife Judith were both Peace Corps volunteers in Malawi (in southeastern Africa) and completed numerous international assignments during his NPS career.
