Get Your Nature On!

Did you know that regular outdoor activity can actually improve your physical and mental health?

Challenge yourself and your friends to get outdoors with OAK's Get Your Nature On! Facebook App. Share your experiences, earn badges, have fun – it’s that easy!

Get moving, get healthy, get outdoors!


“By using social media to inspire, inform, and connect young people to nature, OAK addresses some of the key challenges raised by the thousands of young people who participated in the America’s Great Outdoors listening sessions...I am proud of our work with groups like OAK who have committed to implementing the recommendations in the report by making the health of our nation’s youth and public lands a priority.”
-- Interior Secretary Ken Salazar
