PA Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan Input Sessions Scheduled

Department of Conservation and Natural Resources staff, along with Penn State University researchers, will host three public input sessions to provide comment and recommendations for the 2009 Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan.

 

Attendees will get a chance to provide input on a set of draft recommendations produced by a multi-agency task force of recreation specialists led by DCNR.

 

Every five years, Pennsylvania produces a plan that provides citizens, policymakers, and recreation professionals with a snapshot of current trends and issues in outdoor recreation. The plan also helps set the agenda for state recreation policy, planning, funding, and implementation for the next five years and beyond. Public input to this process is critical—ensuring a broad representation of interests, views and ideas.

 

The sessions, all 4:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., will be held: June 1 – Four Points by Sheraton, Pittsburgh North; June 2 – Ramada, State College; and June 3 – DeSales University, Bethlehem.
