EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT Vision and Mission Statements
EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT Vision and Mission Statements Vision The East Bay Regional Park District will preserve a priceless heritage of natural and cultural resources, open space, parks and trails for the future and will set aside park areas for the enjoyment and healthful recreation for generations to come. An environmental ethic guides us in all that we do. Mission The East Bay Regional Park District will achieve the above vision in the following ways: • Provide a diversified system of regional parklands, trails, and parkland-related services that will offer outstanding opportunities for creative use of outdoor time. • Acquire and preserve significant biologic, geologic, scenic, and historic resources within Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. • Manage, maintain and restore the parklands so that they retain their important scenic, natural, and cultural values. • Interpret the parklands by focusing educational programs on both the visitor’s relationship to nature, natural processes, ecology, history of the parklands, and the value of natural conditions. • Support the development and retention of well-trained, dedicated, and productive employees. • Improve access to and use of the parks by members of groups that have been underrepresented, such as disabled, economically disadvantaged, and elderly visitors. • Balance environmental concerns and outdoor recreational opportunities within regional parklands. • Provide recreational development that fosters appropriate use of parklands while preserving their remoteness and intrinsic value. • Create quality programs that recognize the cultural diversity represented in the region. • Participate in partnerships with public agencies, nonprofit organizations, volunteers, and the private sector to achieve mutual goals. • Provide leadership to help guide land use decisions of East Bay governments that relate to the District. -

The rate of immigration is basically the only unknown. As shown in Table 1, the younger the generation, the greater the forecast growth. Conversely, the size of the older generations will decline. So for example, the Boomer generation, formerly the largest, will decrease substantially — its oldest members will be age Table 1. Generations as a percent of total U.S. population projections, 2016–2030. 84 in 2030. The Millennials, at 84 million, Sources: U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division, 2014 National Population Projections; Gruen Gruen + Associates. are currently the country’s largest demographic. By 2030, this generation will be between the ages of 30 and 48, and will account for almost 91 million people.

Bay ChroniclesSM Retracing the forgotten history of Chinese shrimp fishing around San Francisco Bay A SAILING EXPEDITION AND TRANSMEDIA ART INSTALLATION Chinese shrimping junk in San Francisco Bay, 1888 (Telegraph Hill in the background) SAN FRANCISCO MARITIME NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK | NPS China Camp The Grace Quan, replica 19th century Chinese shrimping junk KALW.ORG | JULIE CAINE Richmond Hunters Point Redwood City Village of Chinese shrimp shers, Pt. San Bruno, PRIMARY LANDING SITES San Francisco Bay. About1889 NATIONAL ARCHIVES PUBLIC PROGRAMS FORMER CHINESE SHRIMP CAMPS Sailing route of the Grace Quan to retrace the history of Chinese shrimp shing in San Francisco Bay THE PROJECT Chinese Whispers: Bay ChroniclesSM retraces the history of Chinese shrimp shing in San Francisco Bay through sailings on the Grace Quan, an authentic 43-foot replica of a 19th century Chinese shrimp junk, to former Chinese shrimp shing sites in the Bay. The captain of the boat will be John C. Muir, archaeologist and Curator of Small Craft at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, who led the building of the Grace Quan. Together with Chinese WhispersSM Director Rene Yung, an interdisciplinary team of visual, sound, and media artists will chronicle the journeys on the Grace Quan, along with environmental scientists from the San Francisco Estuary Institute. Along the sailing route, landside public programs will connect local sites to the overall history. The project will culminate in a transmedia art installation in 2015 at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park. Chinese Whispers: Bay ChroniclesSM is a collaboration between Chinese WhispersSM and the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park that explores the history of Chinese shrimping activities as a vehicle to retrace an overlooked and important segment of the Bay Area’s maritime history. -
