They have declared Saturday June 14th 2008 <strong>National Get Outdoors Day</strong>. The goal of the day is to connect children and "First Timers" to the outdoors and show them the benefits of outdoor recreation and activities. Many Americans are unaware of vast and scenic pubic lands around them. National Get Outdoors Day invites everyone to check out America's Great Outdoors - our parks, our forests, our refuges and other public lands and waters. http://www.nationaloutdoors.net/national-get-outdoors-day-june-14#comments National Get Outdoors Day Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:38:19 -0600 nationaloutdoors 343 at http://www.nationaloutdoors.net http://www.nationaloutdoors.net/national-get-outdoors-day-locations There are 41 locations hosting National Get Outdoors Day Events on Saturday, June 14th 2008.
