All the proceeds from a new Virginia license plate go towards the Shenandoah National Park.

Governor Tim Kaine signed the bill authorizing the plates in March.

The new plates are blue and green, and feature a black bear, Skyline Drive, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The plates cost $25 for non-personalized plates and $35 for personalized plates. To order, call 434-293-2728.

The DMV says they need 350 orders before it can start producing the plates. They should be delivered to buyers in about ten months.
