Oregon Outdoor Recreation Summit

The summit combines fun and high-impact in-person networking opportunities with conference programming on the important issues of the day, educational content, trails stewardship work parties, and in-field tours and workshops.

The summit will bring together Oregon’s outdoor community to learn, build relationships, and find solutions to the challenges we face in developing and elevating outdoor recreation opportunities to best serve Oregon communities and celebrate and protect our natural, cultural, and historic wonders. The Summit seeks to accelerate efforts around:
 

Community Health: Improved community well-being by increasing access to outdoor recreation, fostering community resilience, and enhancing both physical and mental health outcomes for all Oregonians.

• Sustainable Recreation:  Environmentally responsible recreation that promotes conservation measures, adapts to climate change impacts, and ensures the long-term sustainability of Oregon's outdoor resources.
• Creative Partnerships:  Innovation and inclusivity in outdoor recreation are fostered through collaborative partnerships that engage diverse stakeholders and incorporate culturally relevant approaches.
• Economic Prosperity: Stimulating economic growth requires creating jobs, supporting local businesses, and promoting equitable economic opportunities within Oregon's outdoor recreation sector.
