Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park was established in 1916 to protect and interpret the unique environment of Kilauea and Mauna Loa, two of the most active volcanoes in the world. The rare ecosystem, with its surrounding rain forests and changing landscapes, has produced numerous plants and animals indigenous to Hawai'i.

This commemorative color patch bears the image of an erupting volcano with native ohia and its red lehua blossom, considered sacred to Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes.

Top of patch reads "Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park" and bottom reads "Island of Hawai'i". Patch measures approximately 3.5" in diameter.
