June 2011 will be the eighth annual Great Outdoors Month .

Great Outdoors Month helps to highlight the benefits of spending time and volunteering outside to individuals, families, communities and the nation. For example, through recreational activities such as fishing , skiing , biking , and nature watching, we can enjoy the outdoors while maintaining a healthier lifestyle. In addition, volunteerism for environmental education programs, local parks, and nature conservancies helps to sustain park trails, restore wildlife habitats, and protect the environment for future generations.

In addition, June 11, 2011, is National Get Outdoors Day (GO Day) . GO Day is an annual event to encourage healthy, active outdoor fun.
