–Got plans for today? If not, you might consider heading to a national park in honor of the three-year anniversary of the Great American Outdoors Act, a bipartisan law that helps protect, improve, and sustain our public lands, as well as Bureau of Indian Education-funded schools. The U.S. Department of Interior is waiving entrance fees for all of the federal land it manages to mark the anniversary, making Friday the perfect time to visit one of America’s national parks or wildlife refuges. Find a park near you.

 

“the nation behaves well
if it treats its natural resources as assets
which it must turn over to the next generation increased,
and not impaired, in value.”
― theodore roosevelt
26th president of the united states (1901-1909)
