The National Park Service established by Congress with the Organic Act and signed into law on August 25, 1916 by President Woodrow Wilson, embodies the ideas of America. The purpose of the National Park Service is"...to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and wildlife therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same i such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations."
