LINCOLN, Neb. – Enjoy time outdoors with family and friends and create opportunities to win prizes in the annual Great Park Pursuit.
Registration is open for the 2013 event, which encourages healthy outdoor lifestyles and increases awareness of recreational opportunities through visits to Nebraska parks.
Individuals or teams may visit 20 participating local, state or federal parks May 1 through Sept. 16. They follow clues at each park to locate a post, where they make a tracing of a nature impression. The impressions are mailed to organizers, reflecting the total number of parks visited. The chance of winning prizes increases as more parks are visited.
Visit negpp.org to register or see additional information.
