    Proclamation 9757 of May 30, 2018

    Great Outdoors Month, 2018

    By the President of the United States of America

    A Proclamation

    During Great Outdoors Month, we celebrate the unmatched magnificence of
    our Nation's mountains, waters, canyons, and coastlines. Spending time
    in the great outdoors, especially during summer, is an American
    tradition. Every American should take the opportunity to enjoy the
    beauty of our natural wonders, which stretch from coast to coast and
    beyond.
    As Americans, we are blessed with many stunning lands and waters that
    surround each of our communities. Our numerous forests, wildlife
    refuges, and local parks offer endless opportunities for recreation,
    adventure, and renewal. Early morning fishing trips and the thrill of
    summiting mountain peaks with friends create lasting memories. The
    splendid beauty of a sunset can inspire, while the solitude of a weekend
    camping trip often brings long-sought tranquility.

    My Administration has made access to public land a top priority. We have
    modified national monuments to enhance public use and enjoyment of
    nearly two million acres of public land in Utah, and opened or expanded
    hunting and fishing access at 10 national wildlife refuges across the
    country. The splendor of our country's treasured lands is a source of
    national pride, and Americans should be able to enjoy as many of our
    treasured outdoor spaces as possible, in as many ways as possible.
    As summer approaches, I encourage all Americans to step outside and
    appreciate America's natural beauty and to practice good stewardship of
    our environment. By enjoying our great outdoors, we enhance our
    collective efforts to preserve our natural lands and waters, protecting
    them for future generations.
    NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of
    America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and
    the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2018 as Great
    Outdoors Month. I urge all Americans to explore the great outdoors while
    acting as stewards of our lands and waters.
    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirtieth day of
    May, in the year of our Lord two thousand eighteen, and of the
    Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
    second.
    DONALD J. TRUMP
