Featured in Our Good Natured Blog Governor Shapiro’s Budget Supports Outdoor Recreation Economy, Park, and Forest Infrastructure Governor Josh Shapiro presented his first budget to the people of Pennsylvania — sharing his vision for commonsense investments to make Pennsylvania communities safer and healthier, create real opportunity and build an economy that works for all, and ensure every child has access to a quality education. This budget is a set of real solutions to the most pressing issues Pennsylvania communities face, Governor Shapiro said. During his remarks, the Governor stressed the importance of protecting our natural resources, parks, and trails, mentioning both Presque Isle and Pine Grove Furnace state parks by name. He talked about how important parks, forests, and trails are to families across the Commonwealth, including his own family. 
Funding Available for Volunteer Fire Companies to Increase Protection from Wildfires in Rural Areas The application window is now open for grants to help Pennsylvania’s rural communities increase protection from wildfires. “We are pleased to the support the men and women who volunteer with the fire companies that serve our rural areas and communities across Pennsylvania with these grants,” DCNR Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn said. “Having well-equipped and highly trained wildland firefighters is critical to protecting the Commonwealth’s natural resources, and we encourage eligible fire companies to apply for this grant round. ”Local firefighting forces in rural areas or communities with fewer than 10,000 residents qualify for the aid, which is used for training and equipment purchases directly related to fighting brush and forest fires. Grant recipients are selected based on vulnerability and adequacy of existing fire protection.
