28 2025–2030 SCORP NEBRASKA'S OUTDOOR RECREATION PRIORITIES Focus Projects for LWCF Funding LWCF focus projects give direction for grant funding of outdoor recreation projects over the next five years. Through the SCORP planning process and public engagement, Game and Parks staff examined the demand for outdoor recreation, which led to the development of the following list of recommended focus projects. This list, along with the SCORP Priorities, assisted in the creation of the LWCF grant application Open Project Selection Process (OPSP). To ensure a competitive application, LWCF grant applicants should align their project with one or more of the LWCF focus project areas outlined below, in addition to the SCORP Priorities. • Trails • Picnic facilities • Nature and wildlife viewing • Nature-based, recreation-related educational amenities • Pools • Playgrounds • Fitness/exercise opportunities • Fishing access • Recreation opportunities in conjunction with historical sites The SCORP recognizes the importance of local public engagement and planning initiatives. If you are working on an application with a project that doesn't clearly fall under one of the LWCF focus project areas, please contact the LWCF Grant Administrator to discuss your application and opportunities for your project. Aligning your project with more than one Focus Project will allow for a more robust and potentially higher scoring application. Go to OutdoorNebraska.gov and search "LWCF" to find contact information and learn more about the LWCF grant program. Visitors play on the playground at Dark Island Park in Central City.
