The National Parks Service is celebrating their centennial by offering free admission to all national parks for four days starting Thursday.

Here's a list of special events in Northwest parks from The Seattle Times. 

We have four parks:

• Mount Rainier
• Olympic
• North Cascades
• San Juan Island National Historical Park

The 100-year mark also has inspired new books about national parks.

With special events across the country, and free admission to all 412 national parks from August 25 through August 28, the National Park Service is encouraging everyone to #FindYourPark / #EncuentraTuParque for the centennial!
