The Capital Certamen Saturday, 9 November 2002 PDFMAILER.COM Print and send PDF files as Emails with any application, ad-sponsored and free of charge www.pdfmailer.com The Capital Certamen Saturday, 9 November 2002 The illustrious and famed Uncle Sam wants YOU to attend the second annual Capital Certamen, sponsored by the Maryland Senior Classical League. Certamen is essentially a Classics trivia game, in which teams of up to four players each compete against one another by answering questions about the Latin language, Roman history, culture, and mythology. The Certamen will be held on Saturday, 9 Nov. 2002. What better way to spend a crisp autumn day than amidst the sprawling fields and rustic tobacco farms of suburban Maryland, at the Queen Anne School in conveniently located Prince George’s County, showing off your Classical knowledge to all the world! Please join us as we bring Latin students from across Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia together in the only truly “cross-Potomac” Certamen. This is an exciting academic enrichment opportunity for students - plus, it’s fun! Directions to the school and a registration form are attached. This tournament will feature no particular theme. Rather, questions will focus upon material typically covered in an average middle- or high-school Latin classroom. Questions will focus on speed rather than on deep, esoteric, obscure knowledge. In other words, memorizing the O.C.D. from cover to cover is not necessary for the Capital Certamen! There will be four rounds of competition and no finals. All teams will choose their pittings randomly for Round 1. For Rounds 2, 3, and 4, teams will be re-pit based on their total scores. This method, known as rank pitting, ensures that teams of similar abilities get the chance to battle it out with each other. No team will feel as if it doesn’t have a chance at capturing one of our coveted prizes. Students should eat lunch beforehand; there will not be a break in competition. The Capital Certamen can be successful only if every entering school’s teacher comes to help moderate. Schools should expect to bring at least one or two other warm bodies to help out as scorekeepers, spotters, or filler team members. We shall feature three levels of competition: Level I (for students in their first year or course), Level II (for students in their second year or course; this includes “Latin I Advanced” students), and Upper Level (Latin III and above). Non-Latin students who regularly competed on Level I last year should compete on Level II this year, et cetera. Please limit your registration to a total of four teams.

  • Part Two: Area and Site Analysis
    PART TWO: AREA AND SITE ANALYSIS Anacostia Trails Heritage Area Heritage Tourism and the Heritage Area Maryland=s Heritage Preservation and Tourism Areas Program, by recognizing and certifying heritage areas, fosters partnerships between preservation organizations, parks and open space advocates, and local government officials to preserve not only individual historic sites, but their historic and cultural contexts. Successful heritage areas link sites, parks, greenways, and transportation corridors. More important, they encourage collaboration among large and small historical organizations, museums, visitors= centers, historic preservation groups, and others to form a network of interpretation that will support heritage tourism and thus add to a region=s economic development. Heritage tourists, who typically stay longer and spend more per visit than any other category of visitors, are an especially coveted market in today=s economy. This section of this report advances concepts and recommendations for the Anacostia Trails Heritage Area to develop a collaborative, region-wide system of interpretation, reflecting the historical context set forth in the preceding section. Such a system will enable this Heritage Area to capitalize fully on the significant, excellent investments in many special sites that can clearly take greater advantage of the rising trend in heritage tourism, realizing a return on that investment that will benefit not only ATHA visitors, but also its residents. The first portion of this section reviews the recommended interpretive framework, a set of themes encircled by an Aordering concept,@ or primary theme that helps visitors comprehend this historically rich, extensively developed region. In only a few square miles, fully fourteen municipalities, many major federal and state institutions, and multiple major transportation corridors jostle for space.
