all park workers

My family and I express our sincere gratitude to everyone who works and volunteers in Americaā€™s great national parks. We have visited many of them and there isnā€™t a single one that we didnā€™t like. Thanks to all of you, they are kept clean, safe, natural and open to the public. May God continue to bless America and all of her people.

My wife and I have been visiting national parks in the US since before we were married 53 years ago. We have been to most national parks in the US and each and every one has been a thrill and we enjoyed each one. Each is unique in it's own way and that is what is so great about the National Park System. We have never been dissatisfied with any of our visits. Each and every Park Ranger that we have ever met over that period of time was always very nice, very helpful and could answer all of our questions. The guided tours and camp fire talks are wonderful.
