I just recently visited Everglades, Key Biscayne, and Dry Tortugas NPs. The passion and love the Rangers have for their jobs not just here but throughout the Park Service is inspiring. As a PreK teacher I will continue share what a treasure our National Parks are and encourage my students to become Junior Park Ranger. Thank you for all you do!!!
Sincerely,
Everglades National Park
One of the largest wetlands in the world, this iconic "River of Grass" protects 1.5 million acres of subtropical wilderness in South Florida.
