Deputy Secretary of the Interior Kate MacGregor joined the National Park Service, community members, and partners today to celebrate the ribbon cutting of the newly redeveloped Marjory Stoneman Douglas Visitor Center at Everglades National Park, which is scheduled to open fully to the public later this month. The entire grounds, marina, and canoe/kayak launch have been redeveloped over the past two years into a worldclass facility to welcome visitors to the Gulf Coast side of Everglades National Park.
