I’m a volunteer at the Hamilton Grange. I love it. The rangers are amazing and incredibly welcoming. The shutdown is hurting not only the park employees but also the visitors who come to Harlem to enjoy the beautiful St. Nicholas park that the Grange is located in. I hope that the government pulls together soon and opens up the hundreds of National Parks once again.
Sincerely,
Hamilton Grange National Memorial
