Taggart Schubert Memorial Fund
Wilderness Ranger Intern Program

In 1996 GNPVA announced the formation of the Wilderness Ranger Intern program.

In 2018, the Schubert family approached the park and GNPVA with the idea of fully funding a second wilderness ranger intern, for years to come. Because of increased visitation to the park during the winter, park staff felt it important to add to their presence in the wilderness from December through March, so the second intern, a Winter Wilderness Ranger Intern began work in 2019, the salary of this intern is paid by the Schuberts, through the Memorial Fund.

The Nature Center entered its thirteenth summer season in 2024 of being open six hours a day, seven days a week. This is largely due to the efforts of GNPVA volunteers who staff the Center and coordinate the volunteers.

The Apgar Nature Center will be open in 2025 from June 14 through August 31.

GNPVA volunteers are always welcome to join the staff of the Apgar Nature Center.
