Since this year marks the 75th anniversary of the completion of Mount Rushmore, the staff has been posting short bios of the workers on their Facebook page. After 25 years, the National Park Service has finally acknowledged that Luigi Del Bianco was in fact the chief carver. Permanent recognition at the mountain is what we are really after, but this is a break through and a start in the right direction.  A big, heart felt thank you to those individuals in the NPS for making this happen.

WON’T YOU TAKE A SECOND TO CLICK ON THE FACEBOOK LINK BELOW AND “LIKE” LUIGI’S PHOTO?

Let’s let the NPS know that Luigi has a lot of fans all over the country!!
