(1) On May 11, 1910, President William How-
ard Taft signed a bill establishing Glacier National 
Park; the Nation’s 10th national park. 
(2) In 1931, members of the Rotary Clubs of 
Alberta and Montana suggested joining Glacier Na-
tional Park with its adjacent cross-border Canadian 
national park, Waterton Lakes National Park, as a 
symbol of peace and friendship between the two na-
tions. 
(3) In 1932, the United States and Canadian 
governments agreed to jointly designate the two 
parks as Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, 
the world’s first. 
(4) Both parks are biosphere reserves, and were 
named as a World Heritage Site in 1995, high-
lighting the importance of the parks, not just to the 
United States and Canada, but to the entire world. 
(5) Glacier National Park’s rugged and soaring 
mountains, pristine forests, watchable wildlife, alpine 
meadows, and spectacular lakes have inspired gen-
erations of people to explore and experience nature. 
(6) Known as ‘‘The Crown of the Continent’’, 
Glacier National Park, with its awe-inspiring beauty, 
majesty and grandeur, is an incredible national 
treasure.
