John F. Kennedy NHS
The John Fitzgerald Kennedy National Historic Site is the birthplace and childhood home of John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States. The house in Brookline, Massachusetts, is where young Jack took his first steps, and where he would learn the values that would shape his life in public service. At the time of his birth on May 29, 1917, Brookline was a quiet and comfortable suburb, close to Boston but not part of the city. The Kennedys had seven of their nine children in Brookline, before moving to New York in 1927. Owned by the National Park Service, the site includes a museum with exhibits on Kennedy's life and accomplishments.

Sunset Crater Volcano
The eruption that created Sunset Crater National Monument was devastating. The date is not firm but there is evidence it occurred around 1085. The eruptions formed a 1,120 foot-high cone, and covered an 810-square-mile area with a blanket of ash and lapilli. The impact of the eruption was so profound, it forced the Sinagua people to abandon their homes. Today, visitors can explore trails winding through lava flows, lava tube caves, and ponderosa pine forests, witnessing the area’s gradual ecological recovery. The monument protects both geological wonders and ancient Indigenous sites, offering insight into the cultural and natural history of the region.

Gates of the Arctic
Gates of the Arctic National Park is one of the most remote and pristine national parks in the United States. It is also one of the least visited, due to its remote location. The park is only accessible by plane or by foot, and there are no roads or trails within its boundaries. However, those who make the effort to visit Gates of the Arctic are rewarded with breathtaking views of some of the most untouched natural beauty in the world. Glaciers have carved deep valleys into the landscape, and wild rivers flow through them. The endless summer light fades into aurora-lit night skies in winter. Gates of the Arctic remains virtually unchanged except by the forces of nature.

Constitution Gardens
Constitution Gardens is a park located within the boundaries of the National Mall. An oasis in the midst of a city landscape, the 50 acres of the park were originally beneath the Potomac River. Near the end of the nineteenth century, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers initiated a dredging project that created the land that became Potomac Park. Constitution Gardens has a small pond, which contains the Memorial to the 56 Signers of the Declaration of Independence on an island open to pedestrians.
