​PATC Annual Meeting
PATC has announced that their Annual Meeting will be virtual again this year. With the uncertainty of everyone's lives with COVID-19 still being around, they have decided not to expend the money to have an in-person meeting. Registration details will be coming out later in September.
Mask Requirements: Shenandoah National Park
Please be aware that as of August 22, Shenandoah National Park has once again implemented a mask requirement when inside buildings in the park.
