Eastern National is proud to announce the 2018 winners of the annual Passport To Your National Parks® photo contest. The contest is open to National Park Service employees and Volunteers-In-Parks (VIPs). Ten photographs of national parks are selected and featured on the Passport To Your National Parks commemorative stamp set. Winning photographers receive a $500 award if the photograph is their own. If it is an NPS photo, the award is given to the park. Passport stamp sets have been issued each year since 1986.
