Not chance of birth or place has made us friends,

  Being oftentimes of different tongues and nations,

But the endeavor for the selfsame ends,

  With the same hopes, and fears, and aspirations.

—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, “The Seaside and the Fireside”

Our national parks have always been a source of inspiration, reflection, and unity. As Friends, we remain committed to supporting their preservation and welcoming all who find solace and strength in these special places.
