Thistlewood Park Center

A building run by the Thistlewood park rangers right on the edge of the forest. This is the main center of information about the forest and the national park, as well as the base of operations for the rangers. The interns use it as a second home, a hangout more than an office.

Description
The center is a wooden building with vaulted ceilings and far too shiny floors. The walls are littered with pictures of sights from the forest, and the people who saw them. Sepia pictures of people standing by huge trees, swimming in lakes, petting tiny bears, camping on cliff sides, wearing gas masks while they have a picnic. There is a large stuffed bear wearing a ranger's hat, and a cross-section of a 1000-year old tree with its decades marked, as well as a number of comfortable couches and old magazines. There is a prominent photo of Wallace and Jermaine Foster on their wedding day, titled "A Wedding Made in Park Heaven".
