FIND YOUR PARK at the Friends of Saguaro Online Auction During National Park Week!
For the duration of National Park Week (April 18-26), Friends of Saguaro National Park is running an online auction -- with all auction proceeds being utilized to support our projects and programs benefiting Saguaro National Park in southern Arizona. As the nation prepares to celebrate the National Park Service Centennial in 2016, the NPS and its nonprofit partners have launched FIND YOUR PARK -- a nationwide public engagement campaign to celebrate America's national parks. . .and FIND YOUR PARK is the theme of National Park Week 2015.
The FIND YOUR PARK campaign is introducing the National Park System to the next generation of visitors, supporters, and advocates, while re-engaging those who already know and love America's parks and public lands. FIND YOUR PARK aims to generate broad national awareness about the work of the National Park Service, and encourage stewardship support for parks, programs and public lands.
Each item in this National Park Week online auction will relate to a different park or recreational public land -- so you can join in the NPS Centennial celebration. . . and find your own park to discover.
Join in the bidding, and help Friends of Saguaro National Park celebrate all of America's national parks during National Park Week!
