Outdoor Recreational Trails Advisory Board (ORTAB) Recruiting New Members

Application Deadline - November 1st, 2024

The Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation is seeking multiple candidates to fill one (1) volunteer position, representing Motorized trail users, for the Outdoor Recreational Trails Advisory Board (ORTAB). Applicants should have knowledge, experience, and interest in outdoor recreational activities and grant-funded programs. This is a Commissioner-appointed position with a three-year term, and the board meets a minimum of twice per year.

The primary role of the ORTAB is to assist in evaluating grant proposals for the Recreational Trails Program (RTP) and Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF). Since 2000, these programs have invested over 30 million dollars in trail projects throughout the state, creating critical and sustainable infrastructure while supporting private sector jobs throughout Alaska. Because ORTAB members carry a wide array of trail and public land user experiences, they are occasionally asked for additional advice on other outdoor recreation related subjects. Additional information regarding the ORTAB can be found at http://dnr.alaska.gov/parks/misc/ortaboard.htm.

Anyone interested in serving on the ORTAB should submit the following:

  • a letter of interest
  • brief resume
  • completed ORTAB Applicant Questionnaire (see attachment)

The documents should be submitted to the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation at [email protected]. The last day to submit applications is November 1st, 2024.

If you know anyone who supports trails, works well in a collaborative environment, and has knowledge or experience with trails, please encourage them to apply.
