The National Park Service participated in two SXSW panels & I got to go & “report” on the discussions and attend a few days of SXSW (a tech, music, film & culture conference in Austin, Texas each year) -- truly a dream come true! This episode documents the two panels plus some fun tidbits and takeaways from my experience meeting National Park Service folks and folks across other governmental agencies and partners (like L.L.Bean & the National Park Foundation). With me documenting both the panels & my experience, this episode stands unique in comparison to superintendent interviews. Want to learn how the park service is ensuring they are at the forefront of the challenges both the government and the national park service are facing? Want to get a feel for who I am & my heart behind Who Runs This Park? Listen in!!
