Monday January 18 is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and we hope you all are getting some time out to enjoy time outdoors close to home. For those venturing further out and heading into the Park for a day visit, you will find the Park open and all fees waived in celebration and remembrance of our country’s top civil rights advocate.
