Press Release Summary = The spirit of the holiday season can be felt across all bountries. Whether its a battle field or in your neighborhood Christmas gives us the opportunity to reach out to one another and make a difference it each others lives.
Press Release Body = Christmas is a holiday celebrated by all. Today people across all borders - religious, national, and so forth embrace the Spirit of the Season as a time of giving and sharing during this special time of the year.
A magnificent example of what this Spirit can accomplish is the true story of German and British troops calling an unofficial Christmas Eve truce in 1914 during World War I. The truce began on Christmas Eve, December 24 , 1914 . German troops , perhaps longing for bit of home, began decorating the area around their trenches in the region of Ypres, Belgium , for Christmas . They placed candles on trees (a European Tradition), and sang Christmas carols. Realizing what was going on the British troops in the trenches across from them responded by singing the carols in English.
The two sides continued the spontaneous festivities by shouting Christmas greetings across the trenches to one another. Soon thereafter, there were calls for visits across the \"No Man\'s Land \" where the only gifts they had to give -- whisky, cigars, and such were exchanged. The artillery in the region fell silent that night as the truce allowed the soldiers an opportunity to take a breather and reflect.
Christmas happily brings out the best in people; in us as well as in each other. In a hurried world this season allows us the opportunity to think of others and give the best we have to offer. At National Park Reservations we gladly take this time to enjoy each others company as we take an evening away from the office for fun and casual conversation. We humbly embrace the concept of Santa Claus as we participate in programs around our valley that ensure that all children have a Merry Christmas.
All of us National Park Reservations wish you all a very happy and safe Holiday Season!
