National Park Service marks centennial with nationwide events
The National Park Service celebrated 100 years with a living emblem in Washington and events across the country. Activities included a Grand Canyon naturalization ceremony, an outdoor concert at Yellowstone, and free admission to all sites through Sunday. Katahdin Woods and Waters in Maine opened to visitors since its creation by executive action. The living emblem on the National Mall drew 1000 participants, who received T shirts, while Beartooth Highway briefly closed for a snow event.
