It’s time to saddle up the RV and get outdoors. President Obama has proclaimed June to be Great Outdoors Month. According to the proclamation the Great Outdoors Month initiative is meant to, “celebrate our long legacy of environmental stewardship and resolve to preserve clean and healthy outdoor spaces for generations to come.”
As part of the Great Outdoors Month initiative there are many different events such as National Fishing and Boating Week (June 2nd-10th), National Marina Day (June 9th), Great American Backyard Campout (June 23rd), and of course National GO Day (June 9th).
Great Outdoors Month isn’t the first push from the White House for us all to enjoy the outdoors. First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move Outside! initiative also encourages families to participate in healthy outdoor activities and engage their children in outdoor recreation.
With all the great things going on this month there’s no reason to be cooped up in the house. Gas up the RV and go, because the president said so!
