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.

Andrew Johnson, 17th President: 1865-1869  

Did You Know?
Andrew Johnson never attended school. His future wife, Eliza McCardle, taught him reading, writing and math at the age of 17. Johnson was a tailor by trade so he only wore suits that he custom-tailored himself.
