   • 2023 September 28, Jack Healy, “National Parks, and Those Who Count on Them, Brace for Possible Shutdown”, in The New York Times‎, →ISSN:

     The fall rush around Acadia helps workers survive winter’s lean months. But that’s all at risk if a government shutdown forces America’s national parks and monuments to lock their gates, scuttling millions of vacations and school trips, and costing tourist towns from the Everglades to Yellowstone to Death Valley an estimated $70 million a day.

3. A parish in southern Louisiana, first settled by some Acadian exiles then by mostly Franco-Americans: see Acadia Parish.
