Published: , in Outdoor News
The pandemic surge in popularity of state parks and campgrounds has not waned. Wisconsin DNR State Parks Director Steven Schmelzer said attendance at state parks did not set a record last year, but the number of visits exceeded 2022 and was close to that of record- setting year 2021.
“We are 30% higher than 2019,” Schmelzer said. “Our (park admittance) sticker sales have been very steady and has gone up this past year. As far as revenue from our sticker sales, it’s the most we ever had.”
