FWP To Host Workshops To Discuss River Recreation

River recreation is an important part of Montana’s lifestyle and economy. Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks is looking for input on river recreation issues to help inform recommendations for how to manage these activities moving forward.

To gather public input, FWP will host virtual public workshops. These workshops will provide an opportunity for the public to ask questions and share their insights on trends and challenges with river recreation throughout the state.

The input gathered will be used by the River Recreation Advisory Council. Membership for this council was solicited this summer and the council members will be announced soon.

One of the key tasks of the council will be to hold discussions on managing river recreation opportunities, to include considerations for protecting natural resources and ensuring high-quality experiences for all river users across Montana.

Workshop Schedule: Thursday, Sept. 5, 6 to 7:30 p.m.; and Monday, Sept. 9, 6 to 7:30 p.m.
