The Buffalo National River Turns 50 in 2022/Buffalo National River Partners

Fancy yourself an artist? Then see if you can come up with the winning design to mark the 50th anniversary of the Buffalo National River in Arkansas.

The anniversary comes in 2022 and marks the park's 50th year of protecting the rich natural and cultural history, and recreational opportunities of the area. The 50th anniversary celebration will pay tribute to the natural scenic beauty that inspired early conservationists to support the protection of Buffalo River and that continues to inspire visitors today. It will honor the relationships between the park and surrounding communities, as well as recognize the special role that the river plays for the many visiting individuals and families who seek recreation, adventure, rejuvenation, and solitude. 

“We are very excited to work with the local communities, visitors, and park partners in planning for the celebration of the creation of the country’s first national river. The Logo Contest is a great way to get folks involved in celebrating this incredible park,” said Buffalo National River Superintendent Mark Foust 

In anticipation of Buffalo National River’s 50th anniversary, Buffalo National River Partners is holding a logo contest as an opportunity for the public to submit their original design ideas for a new Buffalo National River logo. The contest winner will receive $1,000 prize money, provided by BNRP, and their artwork will be featured on a variety of educational publications and merchandise.

Design submissions can be entered until April 30, 2020. Contest rules and entry forms are located on the BNRP website.

Support National Parks Traveler

Your support for the National Parks Traveler comes at a time when news organizations are finding it hard, if not impossible, to stay in business. Traveler's work is vital. For nearly two decades we've provided essential coverage of national parks and protected areas. With the Trump administration’s determination to downsize the federal government, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum’s approach to public lands focused on energy exploration, it’s clear the Traveler will have much to cover in the months and years ahead. We know of no other news organization that provides such broad coverage of national parks and protected areas on a daily basis. Your support is greatly appreciated.
