GSMNP Protect Our Parks Protest

It’s time for GOOD TROUBLE! The status of the Great Smoky Mtns National Park has not changed. As a ranger described-they are like the band on the Titanic. There are still only 2 dispatchers in the park-they are down almost 20 rangers in the park-normally around 30 rangers there are now only 11 and soon to be 10 A few seasonal rangers were hired-but no permanent due to this Administration stripping funds at every turn. Scientists, maintenance, trail crews, ems all are on life support. This means increased unsafe conditions for visitors and wildlife and less dollars for surrounding communities. Meet Saturday from June 7 11:30 to 1pm across from the KOA store in Townsend Tn. we will walk up to the Park sign for a picture and protest! Bring a sign!
