CARSON CITY, Nev. – A free history presentation, “Tales From Our National Parks” will take place on August 26 at 1:30 p.m. at the Carson City Senior Center.

The history of our treasured National Parks involves the efforts and commitments of a few very devoted and impassioned individuals. Many of our Parks were created thanks to the resolute determination of people who loved these special areas as much as life itself. Using extensive research and seldom scene images, local historians David and Gayle Woodruff take a closeup look at a few of these steadfast crusaders of our national treasures and their fascinating stories.

This is the second in a three-part series. The program is at the Carson City Senior Center 911 Beverly Dr. Carson City. Call David at 760 920-8061 for more information.
