The National Park Service and the National Park Foundation recently launched "Find Your Park," a public awareness and education campaign celebrating the milestone centennial anniversary of the National Park Service in 2016 and setting the stage for the next 100 years. In conjunction with the "Find Your Park" campaign, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park has introduced a new program, "Hike Harpers Ferry," to encourage park visitors to explore the heritage and dramatic landscapes of the park. Beginning on April 18, 2015, ten park trails are being highlighted. From the leisurely Bolivar Heights Trail with panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the more strenuous Loudoun Heights with views of the Shenandoah and Potomac rivers, there is something for everyone! A free poster, ideal for framing, is available in the Park Bookshop on Shenandoah Street. Stop in and begin collecting commemorative decals for all ten park hiking trails. Help America find a park! Share a photo of your favorite park trail and tag it #FindYourPark. |
