SUMMARY:Lake Elmo State Park Community Education Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Lake Elmo State Park Community Education Meeting\nApril 29  \n06:00PM-07:30PM  \n2300 Lake Elmo Drive  \nBillings\, MT 59105 \nMontana Fish\, Wildlife & Parks will host a Lake Elmo State Park Community Engagement meeting on Tuesday\, April 29\, at the Billings FWP office (2300 Lake Elmo Dr.) beginning at 6 p.m. \nAs a state park within the limits of Montana’s largest city\, Lake Elmo draws a variety of users. The park\, which includes a 64-acre reservoir\, trails and fishing pier\, is consistently one of the most visited state parks in Montana. Visitors can walk\, paddle and fish at this park just minutes from downtown Billings. \nLake Elmo\, however\, is lacking a long-term recreation plan. FWP staff are developing a recreation plan for the park and want to hear directly from Lake Elmo users and neighbors as the plan is developed. The meeting will be discussion-based and allow participants time to share opinions\, favorite uses and activities\, future wishes and complaints or concerns about the park. \nFor questions about the meeting or Lake Elmo State Park\, contact recreation manager Emily Tyler at 406-422 2277 or emily.tyler@mt.gov.
