    HARTFORD – State Rep. Jay Case on Wednesday, March 20, 2013, announced that he will be adopting Burr Pond State Park, joining a coalition of state park and greenway advocates within the Connecticut General Assembly.

    Rep. Case, R-63, made the announcement on the same day the Friends of Connecticut State Parks and the Connecticut Forest and Park Association assembled in Hartford for their Advocacy Day at the State Capitol. In the 100th year anniversary of the State Park System, Rep. Case proclaimed his support for the forests, parks and greenways by adopting her local landscape.

    “Burr Pond State Park is a gem to the northwest corner of Connecticut and a staple to the state parks system,” said Rep. Case, a member of the legislature’s Environment Committee. “The trails, picnic areas and beaches are always beautiful and I’m proud to adopt this park.

    By adopting a state park, Rep. Case will work with existing “Friends” of the park, the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection; use his position as a legislator to advocate the needs for the park and work with the park to continually understand its assets and needs. The Friends of Connecticut State parks added him to their Honor Roll list of legislators.

    Over a dozen legislators signed the pledge this week to adopt a state park in their respective districts. There are 107 state parks in Connecticut, and according to a UConn Economic Study, the state parks employ 9,000 people each year and bring $1 billion to the state’s economy.Case State Parks Adoption 032013_0825
