GO Week 2014 will focus on “The Next Generation of America’s Outdoors.”
From young people working on the land through conservation corps, to organizations working to get more young people outdoors, to conservation organizations working to engage the next generation of public land supporters, inspiring and creating the next generation of outdoor enthusiasts is critical to the future of our young people and America’s outdoors.
If you care about the future of America’s outdoors, our communities’ connection to these places and reconnecting Americans from all walks of life to the outdoors, please join us in GO Week, June 23 – 26, 2014 in Washington DC.
