Virtual Ranger Programs

Traditionally every four years, a newly or recently elected president comes to the nation's capital of Washington, D.C. to take the oath of office. National parks in D.C. serve as the backdrop for many of the Inauguration Day festivities becoming part of the history. Inaugurations have changed shape over the years, but they all a snapshot into what is happening in the country at the time. Join rangers for virtual programs for conversations and reflections about presidential inaugurations, their place in history, and their continuing legacy today.
