Create Your Park Time Capsule

As NPCA celebrates 101 years on May 19th, we’re embracing this second century of park protection by inviting park lovers to create their own time capsules!

While many of us are home, now is a great time to reflect on past trips and give thought to what our futures might look like – while also envisioning the future of our national parks.

While what goes into your capsule will depend on you or your family, we suggest including some of the below park-inspired items. Snap photos of your time capsule in progress and tag us [Twitter: @NPCA / Instagram: @npcapics / Facebook: Post in our Protect Our Parks group] so we can share on our channels!
