Educational
2015: More than 305 million visits recorded.
objective:
We want to see 30% of all Americans visit National Parks by 2018
insights & research Small % of minorities, large room for growth. Parks are missing cultural connection. Parks in their backyard, yet they aren’t going. Where are they going?
problem:
lack of connection, non-inclusive, lack of opportunity awareness
TARGET Asian-Americans, African-Americans, and Hispanics. Within 500 miles of parks. Value connections, heritage, experiences. Enjoy going out, traveling, exploring. Desire a sense of belonging. Willing to spend time/money on vacations. Prefer inclusive, “culturally safe� places.
strategy Create a more diverse experience celebrating all cultures in america. We want all Americans to feel ownership of the National Parks.

melting pot Create a festival celebrating the vast amount of cultures in the U.S. Hosted at the National Parks.
celebrate your roots On Arbor day hold a tree planting program, so that people will have a direct connection to a park and feel as though they contributed. This will also help get people to return to parks to see ‘their tree.’
