Sunday, July 12, marks the celebration of the Horace M. Albright Visitor Center Grand Re-opening and Dedication. After closing the Albright Visitor Center in the fall of 2013, crews reconfigured the building for better accessibility and retrofitted it for seismic activity, as well as created new, dynamic exhibits.
7 月 12 日（星期日）将举行贺拉斯・M・奥尔布赖特游客中心的盛大重开暨落成仪式。该游客中心于 2013 年秋季关闭后，施工团队对建筑进行了重新改造 —— 不仅提升了无障碍通行能力、进行了抗震加固，还增设了全新的动态展览。
The dedication ceremony will begin at 10 a.m. with speakers, a Color Guard, a ribbon cutting, and refreshments leading up to the grand re-opening of the facility to the public. Speakers include National Park Service Intermountain Regional Director Sue Masica, Yellowstone Superintendent Dan Wenk, Board Chair of the Yellowstone Association Clare Campbell, and keynote speaker Bob Barbee, former Superintendent of Yellowstone.
落成仪式将于上午 10 点启动，活动包括嘉宾致辞、仪仗队展演、剪彩仪式及茶点招待，随后该场馆将正式向公众盛大重开。致辞嘉宾包括：美国国家公园管理局山间地区主任苏・马西卡、黄石国家公园园长丹・温克、黄石协会董事会主席克莱尔・坎贝尔，以及主旨演讲嘉宾 —— 黄石国家公园前园长鲍勃・巴比。
The visitor center—formerly single officers' quarters for the United States Army—received a full interior renovation. Crews stripped down walls to original masonry, then stabilized, insulated and refinished them. Windows, doors and fireplaces preserve the historic character, while new exhibits help orient visitors to Yellowstone and provide information for a safe and enjoyable trip by visitors of all abilities. The new exhibits invite visitors to learn about Yellowstone's rich cultural heritage, the struggles that took place here, the establishment of the world's first national park in 1872, and the immense challenges that followed. Exhibits take visitors through the arrival of the United States Army and the 1916 establishment of the National Park Service. The new exhibits also illustrate the relationships of Yellowstone wildlife to each other and their home in this mountain landscape. Visitors have an opportunity to learn about the Mammoth area's active hot springs and how and why they differ from other thermal features in the park.
这座游客中心的前身是美国陆军单身军官宿舍，此次进行了全面的内部翻新。施工团队将墙体剥离至原始砖石结构，随后进行了加固、隔热处理与重新修饰。建筑的窗户、门扉和壁炉均保留了历史原貌，而新增的展品则能帮助游客快速了解黄石公园，并为不同需求的游客提供安全畅游的实用信息。新展品引领游客探索黄石丰富的文化遗产、在这里发生过的艰辛历程、1872 年世界首个国家公园的诞生，以及此后面临的诸多重大挑战。展览还追溯了美国陆军进驻的历史，以及 1916 年国家公园管理局成立的背景。此外，新展品也生动展现了黄石野生动物之间的相互关系，以及它们与这片山地生态环境的依存联系。游客还能通过展览了解猛犸热泉区的活跃温泉，以及这些温泉与公园内其他地热景观的差异及其成因。
Visitors will also find a dynamic orientation area with interactive displays for enhanced trip planning information; park rangers offering educational talks and tours; and a backcountry permit office where camping, boating and fishing permits are obtained. In addition, the Yellowstone Association, the park’s nonprofit cooperating association, funded an expanded bookstore operated in partnership with the National Park Service.
游客还能看到一个动态导览区，这里设有互动显示屏，可提供更丰富的行程规划信息；公园管理员会在此开展科普讲座和导览活动；此外还有一个野外许可证办理处，露营、划船及钓鱼许可证均可在此办理。另外，作为公园的非营利合作机构，黄石协会出资扩建了一家书店，该书店由黄石协会与国家公园管理局合作运营。
The visitor center was named in honor of Horace M. Albright, who helped to found the National Park Service in 1916, almost 100 years ago. Albright was the first National Park Service Superintendent of Yellowstone (1919–1929), and went on to become the second Director of the National Park Service. The re-opening of the Albright Visitor Center is the kick-off event in Yellowstone to celebrate the National Park Service Centennial in 2016.
该游客中心以贺拉斯・M・奥尔布赖特的名字命名，以纪念他在近百年前的 1916 年助力美国国家公园管理局的创立。奥尔布赖特曾担任黄石国家公园首任园长（1919–1929 年），后来还成为国家公园管理局的第二任局长。此次奥尔布赖特游客中心的重开，是黄石国家公园为庆祝 2016 年国家公园管理局百年华诞而举办的首场活动。
Swank Enterprises was the general contractor for the project. NPS staff developed the content for the exhibits, which were designed and installed by Pacific Studios. The Yellowstone Association provided grant money for the exhibit design and fabrication. Renovation of the visitor center was funded by the NPS.
