Cultural Landscape Inventory December 2005 (Revisions Aug 2011)
Camp Randall Memorial Park Cultural Landscape Inventory December 2005 (Revisions Aug 2011) Quinn Evans|Architects University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Landscape Architecture, College of Agricultural and Life Sciences Division of Facilities Planning and Management ©2011, Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System University of Wisconsin-Madison Cultural Landscape Inventory DEFINITIONS What is a “cultural landscape”? The following document is based on concepts and techniques developed by the National Park Service (NPS). The NPS has produced a series of manuals for identifying, describing, and maintaining culturally significant landscapes within the national park system.1 The National Park Service defines a cultural landscape as a geographic area, including both cultural and natural resources and the wildlife or domestic animals therein[,] associated with a historic event, activity, or person, or [one] that exhibits other cultural or aesthetic values.2 In 1925, geographer Carl Sauer (1889-1975) summarized the process that creates cultural landscapes: “Culture is the agent, the natural area is the medium, the cultural landscape the result.” 3 Similarly, the writer J. B. Jackson (1909-1996) looked upon the landscape as a composition of spaces made or modified by humans “to serve as infrastructure or background for our collective existence.”4 What is a “cultural landscape inventory”? 5 This cultural landscape inventory for Camp Randall Memorial Park is one of eight such studies completed as part of the UW-Madison Cultural Landscape Resource Plan. Each inventory defines the boundaries of a distinct cultural landscape on campus, summarizes its history, describes its current condition, and makes recommendations about its treatment. -
Public Records of The
The Public Records of the STATE OF CONNECTICUT FROM 1821 TO 1822 VOLUME XXI Edited in accordance with an Act of The General Assembly Douglas M. Arnold Editor Shelby Shapiro Bevi Chagnon Associate Editor Production Consultant Hartford 2015 Published by The Connecticut State Library Kendall F. Wiggin Lizette Pelletier State Librarian State Archivist © 2015 Connecticut State Library PREFACE This volume contains a transcription of the positive actions of the General As- sembly of Connecticut during the years 1821 and 1822. The manuscript which forms the core of this volume—and of the entire Public Records series—is the official record of the acts, resolutions, and appointments made by the General Assembly. It is housed at the Connecticut State Library [CSL] in Hartford in Archives Record Group 1. The records of the 1821 session reproduced here can be found on pages 407–561 of Volume 13 of the manuscript; those for 1822 can be found on pages 8–231 of Volume 14. The appendices to each ses- sion reproduce selected supplementary documents culled from the records of the executive department at the CSL and from contemporary newspapers. Time constraints did not permit exhaustive research. The footnotes high- light the major activities of the General Assembly, identify some significant themes and developments, indicate where additional primary source materials can be found in manuscript series at the CSL, and provide information about important public figures. Brief biographies usually appear in footnotes on the first appearance of an individual in a major office and other key figures are occasionally identified when appropriate. Cross-references point to matters discussed elsewhere in this and earlier volumes of the series. -

Henry Harnden Page 7 Wisconsin Dept. Profiles Page 8 Notices Pages 9, 10 Camps & Officers Page 11 Comments from Your Wisconsin Department Commander Brothers, The Department officers were called into a meeting on March 5 to address recruiting and retention problems. We had a very healthy discussion after a lunch. I thought the meeting had good representation throughout the Department. A variety of ideas were listed when we were done. Some of them are: 1. Make sure that a camp officer makes the initial contact with the new members. The con tact person can rotate from officer to officer but the new member needs to be informed by contact and a new membership packet should be given to the new member. The initial contact needs to be done via phone so there is an actual conversation with the new member. Each camp should have a new member packet made up for this purpose. 2. National is making up revised brochures to help in recruiting. They will be picked up at Springfield and then given to the camps. 3. Promote the organization without uniforms. We need to stress that we are not re-enactors. 4. There should be a camp media officer that will work with the Department Signals officer and the Facebook site manager (Facebook Information Officer). 5. There should be a Facebook manager that works with th e Signals officer and that there needs to be links available between the two. -
