Hi, I do some digital work for the US Mint, and for those planning on visiting Yosemite this week, the Yosemite National Park Quarter event is Thursday, July 29th at Yosemite National Park at 11:00 am PT. The general public is invited to gather at the Yosemite Valley Visitor's Center where the launch will take place. There will be live music, guest speakers, and a specially designed cake featuring the Yosemite National Park Quarter. Children under the age of 18 will receive a free Yosemite National Park quarter to commemorate this special day.

If you can't make it to the event, you can check out the live webcast at americathebeautifulquarters[dot]gov

The webcast starts at 10:55 am (PT).
