Greetings, Greater Minnesota Parks & Trails Members!  

On the heels of the winter holiday season, we are reflecting on the GMPT highlights of 2024 that you made happen! Attendance at the annual Summer and Fall Meetings made for very effective networking and learning. Thank you for contributing to these events with your time, presentations, questions, and enthusiasm for the work!

Legislative successes are thanks to your financial support, attendance at Legislative Action Day, engagement in legislative forums, and outreach to local legislators. We appreciate our members for showing up in these ways in 2024! We are preparing to support your legislative efforts in 2025 by offering regular virtual Legislative Forums (starting January 10) and hosting the GMPT Legislative Action Day on February 25 in St. Paul, so be sure to watch your email and join us for these events.
