"Make it Monday" forum - The Business of State Parks
Event Sponsors
The discussion will center around two aspects of the business of State Parks - Internal - meaning costs associated with running the park system, and how the division raises funds to support management of the parks. Externally - the discussion will center around the economic driver that state parks are in our community and around the state. The presentation will also feature an overview of the state park system and some pretty awesome images.
