It’s National Parks & Recreation month. The theme for the month is “OUT is IN”. The focus for the year is on setting trends instead of following them, making 2014 the year people go outside, change their outlook, and get involved in their community through parks and recreation. Exercising outside is a fun way to take advantage of taking IN all that the great OUTdoors has to offer. There are limitless options to inspire your activity. It can be as simple as taking a walk or bike ride. Or, for you adventure junkies out there, you can go rock climbing or spelunking. Scale new heights or go deeper this July, but just get OUT there and take it all IN!

If you’re up for the challenge, the National Parks & Recreation Association is hosting a contest for those that can show how they are spending more time OUTdoors IN recreation and parks. Just post photos of you or your friends, family, coworkers and community members doing typical indoor activities outside every day in July. They’re giving away a $50 Amazon gift card every day at random to someone that posts a photo showing an indoor activity being done outside on Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #JulyOUTisIN! They’ll also be giving away a $500 Amazon gift card Grand Prize at random on August 1 to one lucky contest participant who participates during the month of July!
