Year of Fire resources
We are Burning to Conserve! 2020 is the Year of Fire at North Carolina State Parks.
Every year, North Carolina State Parks has celebrated an annual theme in all of our state parks. Programs, festivals and events throughout the state support the annual theme.
The Interpretive and Education Council, a diverse group of park staff members from across the state, selects the theme each year based on suggestions and nominations.
A unique collectible bandana for the annual theme is available for sale at the park webstore or at each park office.
Below are some resources for park staff and educators to tie in to this year's annual theme.
**North Carolina State Parks staff: Materials for the starred documents will be in your park's annual theme box.
