Rockefeller Memorial in Cherokee, NC is a national park dedicated to the permanent enjoyment of the people. Established in 1940, it was the result of the hard work and financial contributions of many individuals. The park, spanning 300,000 acres, was created by acquiring land from small farmers and timber companies, and its development was aided by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Today, it stands as a sanctuary for people from all over the world to appreciate and explore the natural beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains.
