Hopefully the weather is nice where you live and you can get outside because today is National Get Outdoors Day!

Parks, resorts, recreations areas, non-profit organizations and government agencies across the U.S. are planning special activities - in most cases, free activities - to celebrate the second annual National Get Outdoors Day. To find an event near you and for more details, view the location list.

From the National Get Outdoors Day website...

National Get Outdoors Day is a new annual event to encourage healthy, active outdoor fun. Participating partners will offer opportunities for American families to experience traditional and non-traditional types of outdoor activities. Prime goals of the day are reaching first-time visitors to public lands and reconnecting our youth to the great outdoors.

Of course, if you can't make it to one of the sponsored locations, you can always just get outdoors. Take the family hiking, camping, kayaking or canoeing this weekend. Discover a new trail on your mountain bike or head to the river for a relaxing day of fly fishing. Whatever you do today, do it outside and enjoy our great outdoors.
