  • Sunday, April 19: Volunteer Day
  • Monday, April 20: Military Monday
  • Tuesday, April 21: Transportation Tuesday
  • Wednesday, April 22: Earth Day
  • Thursday, April 23: Throwback Thursday
  • Friday, April 24: Friendship Friday
  • Saturday, April 25: Park Rx Day
  • Sunday, April 26: Bark Ranger Day

“Although much has changed in recent weeks, an assortment of fun and engaging digital National Park Week events can help people connect to our shared heritage and natural landscapes,” said David Vela, National Park Service Deputy Director, exercising the authority of the Director in a press release statement

“Knowing that national parks can provide a source of comfort and strength, the National Park Foundation is focused on bringing the beauty and wonder of parks to people digitally during National Park Week,” said National Park Foundation President and CEO Will Shafroth in that same press release.
