A national park is a park in use for conservation purposes. Often it is a reserve of natural, semi-natural, or developed land that a sovereign state declares or owns. Although individual nations designate their own national parks differently, there is a common idea: the conservation of wild nature for posterity and as a symbol of national pride.
An international organization, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and its World Commission on
Protected Areas, has defined National Park as its Category II type of protected areas.
While this type of national park had been proposed previously, the United States established the first public park or pleasuring-ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people, Yellowstone National Park, in 1872. Although Yellowstone was not officially termed a national park in its establishing law, it was always termed such in practice and is widely held to be the first and oldest national park in the world. Some would say that the first official
national park to be designated as such at its creation was Mackinac Island, legislated in 1875. Australia's Royal
National Park, established in 1879, was the world's third official national park. In 1895 ownership of Mackinac Island was transferred to the State of Michigan as a state park and national park status was consequently lost. As a result Australia's Royal National Park is by some considerations the second oldest national park now in existence.
The largest national park in the world meeting the IUCN definition is the Northeast Greenland National Park, which was established in 1974. According to the IUCN, 6,555 national parks worldwide met its criteria in 2006. IUCN is still discussing the parameters of defining a national park.
National parks are almost always open to visitors. Most national parks provide outdoor recreation and camping opportunities as well as classes designed to educate the public on the importance of conservation and the natural wonders of the land in which the national park is located.

The Karkaraly Mountains owe their name to a Kazakh national headdress worn by girls and young women - karkara, which was artfully embroidered with beads, decorated with velvet, satin and had owl feathers on its top. Like resplendent karkara, the Karkaraly Mountains shine with every rainbow color.
The Karkaraly National Natural Park was established in 1993. The park occupying the area of 90,323 ha is located in Karkarala district of Karaganda province.
The territory of the park encompasses not high mountains of Karkaraly and Kent occupying the eastern part of the Kazakh Hummocks. The highest point of the Karkaraly Mountains is 1403 meters and that of Kent - 1469 meters. In the distant past, there used to be solid ridges that have deteriorated over time and got divided into many small ridges and hills. Springs running down the mountain gorges give rise to small rivers.
The largest river of the Karkaraly Mountains is the Karkaraly (with tributaries Tulkuli and Tasbulak), Kendara, Zharym, Keraly, Kopa, streams Aleksandrovsky, Ayushat, Kengir, in the Kent Mountains - Kyzylkenysh, Kadir, Ozen. There are beautiful lakes Shaitankol, Bassein, Kendara, Pashennoye, Ulkenkol here, also small reservoirs and water-filled pits in the granitic rocks.
The main tree species are pine, silver birch, aspen, willow and shrubs. A feature of the
local flora is a big number of relic Ice Age plants, rare and endangered plants - 66 species.

Camp GLOW 2011
This song was created by a group of girls for our Talent Show, which is usually the last night before we leave to go back home. You have to listen carefully to truly enjoy what they are singing about... the pictures should help some.
It was an incredible experience working with these girls and I hope it is something they will never forget.
The camp took place in Karkaralinsk, Kazakhstan June 5th-10th, 2011 with the help of the Oblast Board of Education and the US Embassy located in Astana.
Enjoy!
