Eastern National Is Bringing the Parks to You—Here’s How We’re Extending the Experience

Jul 6, 2020What's New

America’s National Parks, along with the rest of the Eastern National family of brands, is committed to our mission to support the educational, interpretive, and preservation efforts of the National Park Service. To sustain this mission, this spring, Eastern National launched “Extend the Experience” to help keep everyone connected to our national parks.

As part of Extend the Experience, we’ve been providing virtual experiences and resources to bring the parks home to everyone during this difficult time. Fun activities, enriching stories, and bonus content, including free online access to select Eastern National publications through our Book of the Week series, have extended the park experience to wherever park lovers are. By signing up for the Extend the Experience Newsletter, these opportunities to Extend the Experience are delivered straight to inboxes each week.

Virtual Passport Cancellations

Park visitors can now collect virtual cancellations in their Passport books. Passport To Your National Parks® is helping to Extend the Experience with free downloadable cancellations to go with fun virtual park experiences and activities that can be enjoyed at home. There are even special Junior Ranger virtual cancellations for young explorers!

For those who are looking for ways to organize their digital collection, the Virtual Cancellation Collector’s Guide provides inspiration for new enthusiasts and Passport pros alike.

Shop the Experience at ShopANP

Everything purchased from the America’s National Parks online store—books, commemorative stamps, Passport To Your National Parks® products, collectibles, and more—helps to support education and preservation at our national parks.

Support the Experience

In addition to shopping at our America’s National Parks online store, park lovers can support these new ways to experience our public lands by making a tax-deductible donation of $10 or more. Each gift can help reach new audiences with the stories from our parks and fund critical park needs, including support for interpretive programs, artifacts, publications, living history, signage for trails and park exhibits, and much more.

For 73 years, Eastern National has been a dedicated supporter of America’s public lands, giving back more than $163 million in direct and in-kind aid to parks. As you enjoy our online experiences, remember, 100 percent of proceeds from purchases of our products have always supported and will continue to support educational programs at national parks.

Now more than ever, we appreciate the treasure of our public lands and invite and encourage everyone to keep on learning, exploring, and supporting America’s national parks online. Please stay connected with us by following America’s National Parks and the Passport To Your National Parks program on social media and share the experience with fellow national park and public land supporters!
