Submit your photos, articles, and stories to exciting new youth outdoors website

(I-Newswire) August 22, 2009 - In my travels across the country the last couple of decades, the subject of getting kids back outdoors has come up with regularity. It affects all of us, no matter what race, gender, religion, age, or political stance. The story is the same from Oregon to Florida, from the big cities to the smallest towns. So many kids don't even know how much fun it is to spend the day at the lake... because they've never experienced it! I cannot tell you how many smiling faces I've seen on kids who landed their first fish, caught their first fly ball, or held their first horny toad. Those moments are golden, and can change that child's life... if given the opportunity!

Of the hundreds or maybe thousands of people I've spoken to about the need to accomplish this goal, not once have I heard someone disagree. Not once! You know what they all say? "OK, I'm in... so what do we do?"

Hopefully Youth Outdoors USA will answer that question... If the website succeeds, the sky is the limit to what we might accomplish. My vision is that YOUSA will be a "portal" to an unbelievable array of beautiful outdoor pictures, great educational articles, funny stories about kids outdoors, links to other terrific kids outdoor websites, etc...

But it won't happen unless many of you get involved. It's entirely up to those of you who are committed to making this country a better place for future generations...

If I've tweeked your interest enough, please take a look at Youth Outdoors USA...

If you visited the home page of Youth Outdoors USA, you read the following "Call to Action". It basically explains that of the 85 pages on this website, 60 are blank, just waiting for articles, stories, photos, and links from anybody who wants to help accomplish the goal of getting kids and their families back outdoors. There are also a couple of main category pages needing someone to "take charge".

Here's the deal... I could just as easily populate all the pages with royalty free content from literally hundreds of ezine and photo sites, but I really want everything to come from people who are committed, so please consider giving up a little bit of your time to tell a story about your experiences in the outdoors with family and kids, submit photos of family gatherings at the lake, write educational articles, or whatever you think would be beneficial to today's kids.

We are happy to add your name, and other information including links to your personal or commercial website or blog to any submission, if you so desire.

Although visitors to the site will be required to complete a short form in order to submit to YOUSA, as a member of this forum you are welcome to submit to me at pscheen@youthoutdoorsusa.com without the form. Just tell me on which page you'd like to put your submission, and it will be done.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thanks so much for considering becoming an active part of Youth Outdoors USA!
