Discovering Your Parks

Who wears the green uniform? Your leaders forthis program are the Park Rangers of the National Park Service. They are one group among the thousands of people who work for the Department of the Interior, the Nation's principal conservation agency. As National Park Rangers, they are the guardians of our country's priceless scenic and historic heritage - the areas administered by the National Park Service. From Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, to Katmai National Monument in Alaska, to the Lincoln Memorial right here in Washington - National Park Service areas reach" from sea to shining sea." The National Park Service areas are YOURS, to protect and to enjoy now and in the future. What about the parks in Washington? They are cared for by a unit of the National Park Service, the National Capital Region. It is in these areas where you will be "Discovering Your Parks."
