  • Berrien County Directory 2017 - 2018 Galien River County Park
    BERRIEN COUNTY DIRECTORY 2017 - 2018 GALIEN RIVER COUNTY PARK The Galien River County Park in New Buffalo Township, was acquired by Berrien County in 2001 with the assistance of a Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Grant. The 86 acre park includes a mix of upland and wetland habitats along the Galien River. The wetland area is particularly significant in that it is a part of the larger “New Buffalo Marsh”, a Great Lakes marsh that formed along the Galien River just upstream from the river’s mouth at Lake Michigan. Major improvements were completed to the park in 2014, with the assistance from the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund, the Pokagon Fund and Berrien County. The Berrien County Parks Commission included a “Canopy Walkway” that leads through the treetops to a 60’ high “Marsh Overlook Tower” and a 600’ long “Marsh Boardwalk” that leads to a “River Viewing and Fishing Platform” on the edge of the Galien River. Both of these major features are accessible via hard surfaced, and barrier free hiking trails. The park is located on Red Arrow Highway in New Buffalo Township, just north of the intersection with US-12. The entrance is located directly across the road from the New Buffalo Township Hall. The park address is 17424 Red Arrow Highway, New Buffalo, Michigan. BERRIEN COUNTY PARKS Berrien County Parks provide our community with a variety of natural, educational and leisure activities. The Parks and facilities have something for everyone.

V Brně dne 15. května 2011 Jan Segeš Poděkování Děkuji doc. PhDr. Csabovi Szaló, Ph.D. za odborné vedení práce a za podnětné připomínky, které mi poskytl. Dále děkuji RaveBoyovi za ochotu odpovídat na mé otázky a přístup k archivu dokumentů. V neposlední řadě děkuji svým rodičům a prarodičům za jejich podporu v průběhu celého mého studia. ANOTACE Práce se zabývá politizací freetekno subkultury v České Republice. Politizace je v nahlíţena ve dvou dimenzích. První dimenzí je explicitní politizace, kterou můţeme vnímat jako aktivní politickou participaci. Druhou dimenzí je politizace na úrovni kaţdodenního ţivota. Ta je odkrývána díky re-definici subkultury pomocí post- subkulturních teorií, zejména pak Maffesoliho konceptem neotribalismu a teorie dočasné autonomní zóny Hakima Beye. Práce se snaţí odkrýt obě úrovně politizace freetekno subkultury v českém prostředí pomocí analýzy dostupných dokumentů týkajících se teknivalů CzechTek, CzaroTek a pouličního festivalu DIY Karneval. Rozsah práce: základní text + poznámky pod čarou, titulní list, obsah, rejstřík, anotace a seznam literatury je 138 866 znaků. Klíčová slova: freetekno, politizace, dočasná autonomní zóna, DAZ, neo-kmen, neotribalismus, CzechTek, subkultura, post-subkultury ANNOTATION The presented work focuses on the politicization of the freetekno subculture in the Czech Republic. The politicization is perceived in two dimensions. The first dimension is the explicit politicization, which could be represented as the active political participation.

We experienced change at the beginning of the year with the departure of one justice and the arrival of another and change at the end of the year, as we bid farewell to two justices and prepared for the arrival of two newly elected justices. Despite the changes, the excellent work of our staff continued in every facet of the Court. We continued educating thousands of Ohioans through our adult guardian and guardian ad litem education programs. And we continued expanding our training opportunities and subject matter to the judges, court personnel, and members of justice-related organizations in Ohio. Seminars, conferences, webinars, and roundtables were aplenty, on numerous well-timed and important topics. We also concentrated our efforts on clarifying and informing the judiciary and public alike on the timely topics of bail and bonds, court record sealing, and grand juries. The Court salutes the hundreds of volunteers who dedicated their time and expertise to the operation and improvement not only of our Court, but of the hundreds of courts throughout the state in 2018. We simply could not operate efficiently or provide the timely direction and level of service to the courts of Ohio without the visiting appellate judges who hear Supreme Court cases on assignment, or the hundreds of professionals who serve on the Court’s boards, commissions, advisory committees, and task forces.

Towards an Understanding of Festival-goers and their Experience at UK Music Festivals by Alyssa Eve Brown PGCert, BA (Hons), FHEA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire April 2019 i STUDENT DECLARATION FORM Concurrent registration for two or more academic awards I declare that while registered for the research degree, I was with the University’s specific permission, an enrolled student for the following awards: Post Graduate Certificate in Business and Management Research Methods Post Graduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Material submitted for another award I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work Signature of Candidate ______________________________________________________ Type of Award PhD__________________________________________________ School Lancashire School of Business and Enterprise ii Abstract Festivals are an adventure of the emotional and physical senses and can create unforgettable, exciting and thrilling memories of unfamiliar and unique experiences. With music festivals in particular, there is an additional emphasis on the chance to experience live music by often idolised musicians within a temporary community of shared musical interests. However, whilst a music festival may attract visitors through advertising an attractive and appealing line-up of popular acts, this far from guarantees a happy customer. There are many other elements that contribute to and impact upon the experience of the festival-goer (Morgan, 2008: 83). If these elements are managed well, this can result in benefits for both the consumer, through positive emotional and cognitive experiences, and for the organisation through repeat custom, recommendations and increased sales.
