PBS Previews: The National Parks: America's Best Idea
Take a sneak peek at Ken Burns' latest project "The National Parks: America's Best Idea." The 12-hour, six-part series, airing in September, tells the story of some of the most special places in the nation that have been preserved for everyone not just royalty and the rich. This is the story of America's National Parks.

Too short. But of course I will watch the program, or tape it for later. Burns always does an exceptional job. Our family has over 45 years visited many of the National Parks. They are America's legacy. Thanks to Theodore Roosevelt!

Kudos to Rocky Mountain PBS for offering yet another amazing cultural event to the community, and for free! Ken Burns is a national treasure -- through the course of the evening we found him to be not only a truly talented storyteller/filmmaker, but an inspirational speaker as well.
Thank you RMPBS!

great idea...however, this can't happen too often because we all know the parks need the revenue source of fees to function and offer the great services they do....but once in awhile to get, perhaps, new folks to fall in love is good....
