Your January OBX Park News: Reflection and a Path Forward

Winter has finally settled in here in the Outer Banks. While it's certainly not as quiet as usual for this time of year, it is a great time for reflection.

Looking back on the past year, one thing is clear: you helped us grow through and adapt to each challenge 2020 had to offer. I look forward to sharing more about exactly the kind of impact you've made in your OBX national parks in the coming weeks!

Until then, we want to get your feedback and reflection on how we're doing as we continue our work to protect and enhance your OBX national parks. Check out our quick survey below, and get to know one of our amazing volunteers who is bringing fun and inspiring looks at your parks each week on our social media!

Thank you,
