The National Park Foundation today announced the eight individuals selected for the 2014 @American_Latino Expedition. In its second year, this Expedition engages diverse audiences and inspires exploration and stewardship of America’s national parks, all the while highlighting American Latino culture, history, and contributions across the National Park System. The program is conducted through the National Park Foundation’s American Latino Heritage Fund (ALHF).

Through a partnership with Go RVing, Aramark, the award-winning food and hospitality partner for national and state parks and other leading leisure and cultural attractions across the country, leading outdoor gear and apparel retailer REI, and Columbia Sportswear, ALHF has selected eight dynamic social media influencers and bloggers to participate in a national park adventure to Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.

“The National Park Foundation and all of our 2014 @American_Latino Expedition partners are thrilled to announce this year’s participants, and we look forward to experiencing their upcoming adventures with all of you online,” said Neil Mulholland, president and CEO of the National Park Foundation. “We’re eager to read about their travels and see the incredible moments they capture on film, inspiring all Americans to explore our national parks, enjoy the wide variety of activities they offer, and discover the connections they have to American Latino heritage and culture.”

The 2014 @American_Latino Expedition participants are:

Their words may also develop appreciation for the cultural significance of all national parks, as well as foster future stewards of our collective American heritage.”
