Senate Resolution No. 1630

BY: Senator SERRANO

 COMMEMORATING the 20th Anniversary of Park and
 Public Lands Advocacy Day on February 25, 2026

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to increase
public awareness and appreciation of our State's great parks and public
lands, as well as to encourage individuals across various communities to
come together to help preserve, protect, clean, and care for these
public lands and historic sites; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Park and Public Lands Advocacy Day
on Wednesday, February 25, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, Formerly known as Park Advocacy Day, Park & Public Lands
Advocacy Day celebrates the growing coalition of all public land
champions; and

 WHEREAS, 2026 marks two full decades of park advocates gathering at
the New York State Capitol to speak to the State's decision-makers on
the value of public land; and

 WHEREAS, This day provides an opportunity to celebrate the continued
investments in New York State's park system, green spaces, and the huge
achievements for the organizations' collective advocacy work over the
past 20 years; and

 WHEREAS, New York's public lands and parks are vital resources that
shape communities, support wildlife habitats, and benefit both physical
and mental health; the safeguarding of these spaces is paramount as they
provide opportunities for everyone to explore, play, wonder, unwind,
learn, and find inspiration; and

 WHEREAS, Throughout its distinguished history, Park & Public Lands
Advocacy Day has demonstrated continuous success, benefiting the
residents and communities of this great Empire State beyond measure and
for generations to come; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to commend the
illustrious events of the State of New York, the focus and intent of
which have made a substantial impact on the quality of life in their
communities; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Park and Public Lands Advocacy Day
on February 25, 2026.
