The Park is also home to Rapidan Camp, the former summer getaway of President and Mrs. Hoover.
The new Shenandoah National Park Trust license plates are being issued at a time when there is a renewed interest in national parks: the federal stimulus bill contains monies for national parks; the U.S. Mint will be producing new quarters, each of which will feature the image of a National Park Service unit; and Ken Burns’ much-anticipated series on the national parks is generating significant buzz.
Additionally, Shenandoah National Park will celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2011 and the National Park Service turns 100 in 2016.
Shenandoah National Park Trust is an official non-profit partner of the national park. The Trust raises funds to support programs that restore, protect, and maintain natural and historical resources in the Park. For more information about the Trust, go to www.SNPTrust.org.
