Foundation Document

Cane River Creole National Historical Park » Foundation Document » Document List

A Foundation Document is a statement of a national park unit's purpose and significance, most important resources and values, and the interpretive themes that tell the park's important stories. Although the Foundation Document is not a decision-making document and does not include actions or management strategies, it describes a shared understanding of what is most important about the park. In this capacity, the Foundation Document will reestablish the underlying guidance for future management and planning decisions at Cane River Creole National Historical Park, and will serve as the first step for considering the future planning and study needs for the park.

Your voice is important to us. We invite you to play a role in charting the future of the park by sharing your thoughts on what is most important about Cane River Creole National Historical Park, and to help identify the most pressing threats and greatest opportunities at the park. We ask that you read and reflect on the questions presented below so that we may take your thoughts into consideration as we develop a Foundation Document. Your feedback will be most helpful if received before January 23, 2015.

Thank you for your interest in Cane River Creole National Historical Park.

Sincerely,
Laura Gates, Superintendent
