Memorials, Recognition - 2026 Outdoors Day on the Hill -
SJR 847 is a symbolic resolution designating March 24, 2026, as "Outdoors Day on the Hill" in Tennessee to honor the Tennessee Outdoor Partnership (TOP) for its work advancing outdoor recreation, conservation, and economic development. It formally commends TOP and its coalition of state agencies (including Environment and Conservation, Agriculture, and Tourism) and partners (like The Nature Conservancy and Tennessee Wildlife Federation) for connecting natural resource investments to community health and economic growth. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but serves as a ceremonial recognition of TOP's role in promoting Tennessee's outdoor heritage. It directs the General Assembly to join in celebrating this event, which will feature policymaker engagement on outdoor initiatives.
