FWP taking comments on state outdoor recreation plan

The Statewide Outdoor Recreation Plan is up for renewal this year and officials with Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks are encouraging residents to share their ideas and suggestions.

The state wildlife agency is hosting a series of workshops to discuss the plan, also known as SCORP, including a Feb. 21 meeting in Kalispell at its Region 1 headquarters building on North Meridian Road. 

“What we have tried to do in the past two iterations of SCORP is to try and hold an extensive dialogue and conversation with people across the state who are involved in outdoor recreation to talk about what our recreation needs are … and work that into a plan,” said Greg Lemon, the wildlife agency’s the head of communication and education.
