New radio recreation report to feature Utah’s state parks

Utah residents have a new source for finding great family recreation ideas in the state of Utah.

Cowboy Ted Hallisey and JD Fox are hosting the Utah Skyline Recreation Report each morning between 9:15 and 9:30 a.m. on KLGL The Eagle 94.5 radio station and also on the Mid Utah Radio web site at http://midutahradio.com/klgl/ stream.

The Utah Skyline Recreation Report is sponsored by Utah State Parks and the daily report will feature one or more of the 43 Utah state parks each day.

“Utah’s state parks offer a variety of activities from learning about dinosaurs at the Utah Field House State Park Museum in Vernal to exploring the lava tubes at Snow Canyon State Park in St. George,” said Utah State Parks Communications Manager Eugene Swalberg. “We are excited to partner with Cowboy Ted and The Eagle to let people know more about opportunities in Utah’s state parks.”

There will also be chances to win great recreational prizes, which will also be given away on the Utah Skyline Recreation Report page on Facebook.

Cowboy Ted is a veteran radio personality and former tourism director in Southern Utah and has produced several recreation guides. He has hosted several school assemblies for over 100,000 kids across Utah to encourage them to get outside, get active and get healthy.

He also provides several resources for kids (including the online Utah Skyline Recreation Guide) on the www.cowboyted.com website.

Cowboy Ted and JD Fox were reunited on air last month after hosting the recreation report on KLGL from 2004 to 2008. “The recreation report inspires me to get out and explore one of the most diverse states, and it’s all in my backyard,” Fox said.“I am excited to be back in radio and hosting the recreation report,” Hallisey said. “It is exciting to provide information to listeners about all of the great activities and recreation opportunities at Utah state parks.”

“I have been to several of the Utah state parks,” Hallisey continued, “but I am also really excited to be learning about new adventures to share with my family and families across Utah – like the great zip line feature at Yuba State Park.”
