The pioneering spirit lives on! The National Park Service, in partnership with Innovators Educational Foundation, is excited to be a part of the American Solar Challenge (ASC) From July 14-27, 2024. Teams from around the globe will head west along the natural corridor used by American Indians and 19th century emigrants, but instead of traveling in wagons, they will drive solar cars. Qualified participants will make daily stops in communities and national parks along the route. The public is invited to meet the drivers, learn about the cars, and discover a piece of history at every stopping point! American Solar Challenge
