On Aug. 25, 1916, the National Park Service was established to protect America's national heritage sites. To celebrate the National Park Service Centennial, Rocky Mountain National Park will be offering a series of truly unique Saturday evening programs held at 7 p.m. at the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center throughout the winter.
This Saturday, Feb. 13, the ranger-led program will be about the National Park Service mission and the challenge of balancing preservation and enjoyment in the national parks in today's ever changing world. A short presentation will be followed by the opportunity for participants to share their own views and take part in a facilitated discussion aimed to explore and share thoughts on the changing values and uses of our national parks.
Upcoming programs:
