The final copy of the Great Falls Park General Management Plan is online. The above link will open a new page to view it.
Centennial Challenge
We want to hear from you! The National Park Service will provide an opportunity for the general public and partner groups in the National Capital Region to provide ideas and recommendations for long-term goals, projects, and programs that are most important for the NPS to undertake in the future. To participate, plan to attend a Public Listening Meeting for the Centennial Challenge on March 27, 2007, from 5-7 p.m., at the Women in Military Service for America Memorial in Arlington, VA. Or, learn more about the initiative and make comments at http://www.nps.gov/2016.

Did You Know?
During the Cretaceous Period, 120 million years ago, the Fort Foote property was swamp land, much different from today. Warm adapted plants such as Brachyphyllum crassicarde lived in this habitat (fossil photo to the right). As the climate began to change, this plant as well as many others died out.
