Description

The annual favorite returns as a park ranger discusses the various "incarnations" of the area as it evolved from a French fur trading post to the present Gateway Arch National Park.

This program will be presented outdoors on the entrance plaza but could be moved just inside the arch main entrance in the event of inclement weather.
