Did You Know? US Army Soldiers protected our National Parks until 1914. In 1903 Buffalo Soldiers of the 9th Cavalry, led by Captain Charles Young, were garrisoned at the Presidio of San Francisco. Among other duties, they were stewards of Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks. They rested in Los Banos on day 7 of their 16 day journey by horseback from the Presidio to Sequoia.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
We have a National Task Force that has numerous committees. All of the committees have specific goals and functions. we are looking for ways to help get the word out!
The chair of the Media Committee is the Media Liaison: Responsible for coordinating with local, state and national media outlets, focusing on TV, radio and written media outlets; i.e. newspapers, magazines and newsletter organizations. The goal is to get as many media outlets as possible talking about what we are doing, starting with the campaign to get Colonel Young promoted to General and our 16 day commemorative journey.
Any ideas?
