Get Involved

Visits to national parks inspire people to plan another trip, to tell their friends, and often, to ask how they can help.

Public support is a critical component in the management of National Park Service lands. No other federal agency relies as heavily on the generosity and kindness of its visitors, and we thank you for your past support and look forward to future partnerships.

You can support the monument by volunteering. Our volunteers assist in the park library and participate in the park's living history program, in which they dress as Civil War soldiers and present historic weapons demonstrations. We also use volunteers for our annual Candlelantern Tours program in the summer.

Park Store

The park store is operated by Western National Parks Association, an official non-profit partner of the National Park Service dedicated to supporting the educational mission of Fort Union National Monument. The park store has a wide range of books, educational games, maps, and other items available for retail sale. These products complement the interpretive themes you experience when visiting the park, and purchases at the park sore provide financial support for the park. The park store is located at the monument visitor center, or you can visit the online park store. Staff are also available by phone during normal business hours at (505)425-8025, ext. 1.
