TODAY IN HISTORY! On this day in 1908, President Theodore Roosevelt declared the Grand Canyon a National Monument. “Let this great wonder of nature remain as it now is,” he said on a visit to the Grand Canyon in 1903. “You cannot improve on it. But what you can do is keep it for your children, your children’s children, and all who come after you as the one great sight which every American should see.” The Grand Canyon would become a National Park in 1919.
