Re: Yosemite: Special Sept 17th Naturalization Ceremony

Putting the "natural" in Naturalization?


Special Naturalization Ceremony to be Held at Glacier Point in
Yosemite National Park
Thirty two people will become naturalized United States citizens at Yosemite’s famous overlook
on Thursday. This date celebrates the ratification of the U.S. Constitution on September 17,
1787.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has developed a partnership with the

There is an enduring connection between the American people and the national parks and these
beautiful sites provide a perfect backdrop for naturalization ceremonies.
