NATIONAL PRESERVATION ACT TURNS 50
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the National Historic Preservation Act and the centennial of the National Park Service in 2016, the NPS has started a social media campaign to highlight preservation work done in all 50 states for the last 50 years.  Using a common hashtag, a state or territory will be featured each week.  Oregon will be featured the week of Aug. 1.  All are invited to post about places and share preservation stories.  More information can be found at http://www.nps.gov/subjects/historicpreservation/50for50.htm
