Forest fires can be destructive, frightening events, but can also be rejuvenating to aging forests. Join Fire Management Specialist Scott Bressler to learn how fire is used to help enrich the health of forest ecosystems, and how park staff decides to manage fires. Meet at the Rainy Lake Visitor Center on Sunday, February 19, 2012. The program runs from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Recommended for ages 10 and up. This program is sponsored by Voyageurs National Park Association. No fee or registration is required to attend. About the National Park Service: More than 20,000 National Park Service employees care for America's 395 national parks and work with communities across the nation to help preserve local history and create close-to-home recreational opportunities.
