Life’s Better Outside Experience, 2

Friday, June 4th, 2010

This is Passport to Texas

Summer’s filled with festivals and events; consider attending those that include The Life’s Better Outside Experience: a streamlined, mobile version of Texas Parks and Wildlife Expo.

05—We’re taking a small version of Expo on the road, and going to other parts of the state.

Trey Hamlett is Outreach Events Coordinator for Parks and Wildlife. He says The Life’s Better Outside Experience offers abundant outdoor recreational opportunities that serve as the first steps toward becoming lifelong outdoor enthusiasts.

20—Archery and fishing, hunting and camping—these are things you can do your whole life. And we want to get unengaged urban Texans involved in outdoor recreation. Because if you’re not involved in outdoor recreation, you’re probably not involved in conservation. So, if we can get you to use the outdoors, you come to care about it, and eventually care for it.

There’s an opportunity to try the Life Better Outside Experience June fifth and sixth:

16—That’s in Longview, Texas, at AlleyFest. It’s a fine arts festival that has concerts at night, but is very busy during the day. It’s a family event; we’ll be on the south side of the courthouse the entire block, and it’s going to be a neat deal. You name it; if we do it outside, it’s going to be there.

Find more information about the Life’s Better Outside Experience at AlleyFest in Longview, June 5 & 6, on the Texas Parks and Wildlife website.

That’s our show… For Texas Parks and Wildlife…I’m Cecilia Nasti.
