In recognition of the impact of outdoor recreation on economies, natural resources and citizen health, the State of Utah opened the Utah Office of Outdoor Recreation in 2013. In June, 2015, Colorado opened the Outdoor Recreation Industry Office. Washington State has now opened an office of outdoor recreation as well.

Join Brad Petersen, Director of Utah’s Office of Outdoor Recreation, and Luis Benitez, Director of the Colorado Outdoor Recreation Industry Office, as they present their experiences at the helms of the country’s first such offices.

The discourse, which will be moderated by Cailin O’Brien-Feeney, the Local Recreation Advocacy Manager for the Outdoor Industry Association, will include discussions of best practices, opportunities, and challenges in the support and promotion of outdoor recreation on a state-wide level.
