Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar and National Park Service Director Jon Jarvis toured Yosemite National Park this weekend. This was Salazar’s first official visit to Yosemite National Park and Jarvis’ first visit as the Director of the National Park Service.
While in Yosemite, Salazar and Jarvis toured American Recovery and Reinvestment Act projects ongoing in the park. Additionally, they joined school age children on a hike through Cook’s Meadow and were joined by Park Ranger Shelton Johnson, who presented his award winning Buffalo Soldier program.
A small reception was held while in the park to honor and welcome Jarvis in his new position as NPS Director. Salazar also recognized Acting Superintendent Dave Uberuaga for his outstanding work in Yosemite since January of this year, when he assumed his role as Acting Superintendent for the park.
