If you are looking for something to do this Easter weekend, why not visit your nearest national park? As a part of this year’s National Park Week, all sites run by the National Park Service will be free Saturday, April 20. National Park Week is a presidentially-mandated celebration of the nation’s public lands that runs every April. This year, it falls between April 20 and 28. And although only the first day of the week is free, that doesn’t mean the excitement is over. Each day includes a different theme, honoring everything from wildlife to the physical and mental health benefits of going to national parks. Usually entering a national park will cost you a “Hamilton” or more, so make sure to take advantage of this beautiful opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors.
This Saturday, all of America’s national parks will be free to visit
