I have a couple of items to share with you as this week comes to a close. Next week, we'll have more information and details for you about recreation reform legislation and budget implications.

DNR looking for volunteer stories
We are looking for stories about the great work being done by our volunteers. Every year, DNR volunteers log in thousands of hours throughout the state. Our recreation and natural areas programs rely on volunteers to help maintain trails, clean up trash, report illegal activities, restore habitats, do monitoring, and so much more. We want to acknowledge their dedication and effort through a variety of ways.
Starting Monday, January 31 through February 14, we invite you to share your story. Tell us about:
Know someone else who is a great volunteer and an inspiration to others? Send us his or her story. Or let us know about a great group of volunteers who you think deserves to be recognized.
>> Submit your story
Moving forward with NOVA grant applications
Our staff has been busy working on applications for grant funding from the Nonhighway and Off-road Vehicle Activities (NOVA) program for 2011. We are submitting 31 applications for a total of $3.7 million (with an additional $2 million committed in matching funds and labor: 48 percent of which comes from volunteers and donated materials; 52 percent comes from DNR staff and materials). The grants are for education and enforcement, planning, trail and facilities development, maintenance and operations, and bridge replacements.

Here is how you can help. Letters of support from recreation users for individual projects are very important to the grant reviewers. If you would like to support of one or more of these grant applications, you can send a letter to the contact person listed with each project. The contact person can also provide you with more details about the project proposals. Be sure to include the project number in your letter. The most effective letters of support explain why a project is important to you as a recreationist. The deadline to send in your letters is February 25.
Speaking of deadlines...
Just a reminder that we have a couple of other key deadlines coming up for you to provide your input:
