North Carolina

I am always grateful to the Rangers who devote themselves to keeping our country's natural gifts of beauty and wildlife safe and preserved for our grandchildren. A special thank you now to all those located in Western North Carolina and to those who came in from outside NC to help restore the area. God bless you all.

Thanks for your hard work. I appreciate it and hope to visit Yosemite someday. What you do is important to preserving our heritage and the flora and fauna in our national parks.

Thanks so much for all your hard work and dedication!! Wish I could donate!! But you are all in my prayers!!

Ranger at entrance gate. I don't know her name, but she was so nice and took the time to make sure we understood the layout of the park and what was the best to see in our short time. I am so thankful for all our Park Rangers who, as stewards of these lands, make it possible for me to enjoy.

Thank you for preserving our parks for future generations. It is imperative that our children, grandchildren, and following generations are informed about our country's heritage and scenic lands.

I moved from Michigan to the mountains of North Carolina eight years ago. Since then I have taken many trips through the park, usually to Gatlinburg. The natural beauty of the park is truly breathtaking at every turn. I want to thank all the rangers and park personnel for all they do to provide us with such a beautiful experience.

We are a family that loves to explore the outdoors, and especially national parks. And now that my husband and I have retired we are traveling much more, and most of the time to state or national parks. Without all the hard work and dedication from park rangers we know access to these opportunities would be much more limited. Our society can reconnect through the joys of nature, so thank you all for what you do everyday to open up the natural world to everyone of us!

To all rangers, thank you for the hard work you do, many times under very difficult circumstances. We appreciate you very, very much.

I wish I had the name, but this guy was fantastic. Made for such a special day on the boat. He was so positive and enthusiastic about all the information he shared. A long day to be doing this work no doubt, but we greatly appreciated it. It was a lot of fun and I was inspired to go for my junior ranger badge....my first ever! Many thanks! Best, Glenn

I love nature and I am thankful that there are national parks.
