Nebraska Outdoor U! Educates Participants on Outdoor Pursuits

LINCOLN – A free, web-based platform focused on teaching users how to excel in hunting, camping, fishing and shooting sports has attracted more than 5,000 participants.

Nebraska Outdoor U! introduces users to the essentials of various outdoor pursuits, and quickly involves them in hands-on activities. As users gain knowledge and experience, they progress through a series of levels, gaining points, badges, and free gear along the way.

The aim of the program is to help users build new skills, learn new aspects of outdoor recreation, and find new places and events to explore their newfound passions.

“Outdoor U! is for everyone, beginners and experts alike,” says program coordinator Scott Stuhr. “If you have an appetite for knowledge, want to give back to your community, and possess a passion for nature, we want and need you to become involved.”
