OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK — After more than a year of work, an organization has been formed by outdoor enthusiasts to support the third most-visited national park in the nation.
The mission of Friends of Olympic National Park, a nonprofit organization, is to support the park in preserving natural, cultural and recreational resources.
“Our main thing is to have a friendly and easy way to connect people to the park,” said Brad Collins, president of the group.
“The idea is to have an organization for people who are interested in knowing more about the park, whether they live here or are visitors.”
Collins said organization leaders are working to adopt bylaws and seeking charter members.
