Many members of the PASG attended the George Wright Society’s ParkForum 2025 workshop from October 20-23rd! It was great to reconnect and be with likeminded scholars and practitioners who love parks and protected areas like we do! Enjoy a few of the group photos we shared! #GWS #ParkForum

We had a small but mighty group enjoy the PASG-sponsored field trip to River Raisin National Battlefield Park! We even got a behind-the-scenes tour of their in-progress new exhibits, which were fantastic! #AAG2025 #RiverRaisin
