Celebrating the impact of the outdoor economy.
On June 10, New Hampshire marked a historic milestone as Governor Kelly Ayotte officially proclaimed the first-ever New Hampshire Outdoor Industry Day (OID)—a landmark moment for the state’s outdoor industry and recreation community. This action-oriented celebration was made possible through the leadership of the NH Office of Outdoor Recreation Industry Development (ORID), Granite Outdoor Alliance, and other key partners.
Over 300 attendees and 47 brands joined us in Manchester to hear inspiring remarks from Governor Ayotte, BEA Commissioner Taylor Caswell, ORID Director Janel Lawton, GOA Director Tyler Ray, Manchester Mayor Jay Ruais, and NEMO Equipment Founder and CEO Cam Brensinger. A major highlight of the day was the launch of the Workforce Toolkit for the Outdoor Lifestyle, a new resource designed to help New Hampshire businesses strategically use the outdoors to attract talent and strengthen community connections.
