nibbling at brush in the meadow or a mother bear wi^Ji her cubs along the roadside. Many walk the forest trails in the park, maybe even a section of the famous Appalachian Trail. Visitors marvel at birds and wildflowers, at old rock walls left from the days when families lived there, at waterfalls and rocky summits. Everywhere in Shenandoah, they find peace, for this natural world is far from the freeways and malls of everyday life. Those who order the new license plate will have a little reminder of the park on their cars, wherever they are traveling.

The Shenandoah National Park Association (SNPA) is collecting applications for the plate now, and the deadline is fast approaching. The Department of Motor Vehicles will begin making the plates when 350 applications have been collected.

Applicants can download the form from the SNPA website at www.snpbooks.org. Applicants should include a $10 fee with their application, payable by check or credit card. For additional information, call the association at 540-9993581.
