On this day in 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act, officially creating the National Park Service to protect and preserve America’s natural wonders and historic treasures “for the enjoyment of this and future generations.” Today, the NPS safeguards more than 400 places across the country. Celebrate by sharing your favorite NPS memory or photo and tag it with #NPSBirthday to inspire others to get outside and explore. Happy birthday to our national parks! 💚
