AJR63,1,6
3
Whereas, for 125 years, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources State
4
Park System has provided high-quality outdoor recreation, education experiences,
5
natural resource stewardship, and other services for visitors throughout the state;
6
and
AJR63,1,10
7
Whereas, Interstate Park—the oldest state park in Wisconsin—was
8
established in 1900, marking the formation of the Wisconsin State Park System,
9
which has since grown to include state parks, forests, trails, and recreation areas
10
comprising over 307,000 acres of public land; and
AJR63,1,13
11
Whereas, Wisconsin’s 50 state parks exemplify the state’s proud and rich
12
history of conservation and protecting natural resources, and the Wisconsin State
13
Park System welcomes more than 20 million visitors each year; and
AJR63,2,4
14
Whereas, the Wisconsin State Park System recognizes the important work of
1
its staff, partners, Friends Groups, and volunteers in supporting and furthering
2
the mission of the DNR to preserve and promote public lands for generations to
3
come and provide safe, accessible, and affordable spaces for all to enjoy year-round;
4
and
AJR63,2,8
5
Whereas, Wisconsinites are encouraged to participate in outdoor recreation
6
offerings, such as hiking, biking, horseback riding, fishing, paddling, and more, to
7
support their health and wellness through the Wisconsin State Park System’s
8
OutWiGo initiative; and
AJR63,2,11
9
Whereas, the Wisconsin State Park System boasts roughly 22 million visits
10
annually, with around $20 million spent on our state parks yearly, and in recent
11
years, about 500,000 state park annual admission stickers were sold per year; and
AJR63,2,13
12
Whereas, due to legislation passed by the 2023 Legislature, a person may
13
purchase a 12-month admission sticker to enjoy our state parks year-round; and
AJR63,2,16
14
Whereas, the Wisconsin State Park System is a key part of the overall outdoor
15
and recreation industry’s large economic impact on the state, generating $11.2
16
billion in state gross domestic product and supporting 97,000 jobs in the state; and
AJR63,2,20
17
Whereas, on this occasion, the state of Wisconsin joins all Wisconsinites,
18
outdoor enthusiasts, and the DNR in celebrating 125 years of the Wisconsin State
19
Park System and commends everyone involved for their many contributions to
20
recreation, tourism, and stewardship in the state; now, therefore, be it
AJR63,2,23
