Looking For Friends Of The Traveler...

Share

Published Date

September 28, 2020

National Parks Traveler is looking for some friends. Producing a multi-media news organization focused on national parks and protected areas is challenging at best, more so when you consider our limited resources. 

Many national parks across the country gain invaluable help from their friends groups, and nonprofit groups often have stalwarts who support their missions. At the Traveler, we could use help expanding our park guides, writing about family activities/experiences in the parks, and keeping up with parks around the country that we don't always hear from.

If you are passionate about parks, have some free time to write or record a podcast from a park setting, and want to help Traveler achieve its mission by volunteering to tackle some of these needs, drop me a note at kurt(at)nationalparkstraveler.org.

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.
