FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







PRESERVING OUR NATIONAL PARKS
1995 FWOC Resolution No. 14:

The National Park Service is facing steep budget cuts in its support by the federal government.  Private donations are increasing somewhat; this will help keep the parks open.  The non-profit National Parks Foundation last year collected more than 6.7 million dollars, which was donated and used to help train park employees, restore historic sites, and to maintain trails.  Thousands of volunteers also contributed time and labor to maintain the parks.
Each member organization of the Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs is urged to include in their budget an annual contribution to the National Parks Foundation, and to encourage their members to be involved as volunteers to assist in the parks' working projects.
..........................................................................................................................................


FWOC members and member clubs are also urged to request their congressional representatives to ensure that National Parks and their employees are adequately funded.
