Box 30370 • Lincoln, NE 68503-0370 • Phone: 402-471-0641 TIME OUTDOORS IS TIME WELL SPENT OutdoorNebraska.gov Dear Outdoor Recreation Enthusiasts, It is my pleasure to share with you the 2026–2030 Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan: Guiding Success in Nebraska Outdoor Recreation. This plan represents the voices of Nebraskans and reflects our shared vision for the future of outdoor recreation across the state. Outdoor recreation is more than just a way to spend time. It strengthens our communities, boosts our economy, and enhances our quality of life. From the Sandhills to the Missouri River, Nebraska offers opportunities to hike, fish, hunt, camp, paddle, bike, and explore. This plan identifies statewide priorities for outdoor recreation and provides data to guide decisions about developing, improving, and caring for our treasured spaces so they remain accessible for generations to come. The 2026–2030 SCORP is built on broad public input, expert analysis, and the collaboration of partners from across Nebraska. It serves as a practical tool for communities, planners, and recreation providers. Whether you are developing a new park, applying for a grant, or simply interested in Nebraska's outdoor recreation trends, this plan is meant to guide and inspire you. Thank you for your continued commitment to enjoying and supporting Nebraska's outdoors. Together, we can ensure every Nebraskan has opportunities to connect with nature and experience the benefits of outdoor recreation close to home. Sincerely, Tim McCoy Director State Liaison Officer
