  • Shelton Johnson National Park Service U.S
    A PROFILE [EXCERPTED]: Shelton Johnson National Park Service U.S. Park Ranger Year Reported/Quoted: 2011 © 2014 MELDI, University of Michigan > The scenery in Shelton Johnson’s life changed drastically and often while he was growing up, but one theme remained constant: the natural world. The younger of two children in a military family, Johnson lived at various points throughout the United States, spending time in Detroit, South Carolina, California, Kansas City, and abroad in Germany and England. It was in Germany that he first remembers feeling a strong attraction to nature. “The Black Forest wasn’t very far from where we lived, and even at a young age it made a deep impact on me,” Johnson recalls. Later, while the family was living in places far from the wild, Johnson found other ways to maintain that connection. Growing up in Detroit’s inner city, wilderness seemed pretty far away, he says. But there was always public television with its programming which focused on environmental issues such as wildlife, wetlands, wilderness conservation, national parks whose programs kept alive the spark of wonder that burned inside me, that fascination for all things wild. > Johnson stayed in Michigan for his undergraduate, earning a bachelor of arts in English literature from the University of Michigan in 1981. He then joined the Peace Corps and served as an English teacher in Liberia, West Africa, where the sight, smell, and feel of the tropics made a profound impression on him. After Liberia, that spark that I had always felt became a flame, and it was getting stronger with each encounter with the natural world, Johnson says.

  • To the Top of Parks Canada
    To the top of Parks Canada As Parks Canada’s centennial celebrations were getting underway, the agency’s chief executive officer, Alan Latourelle (pictured in Torngat Mountains National Park in Labrador), sat down for a conversation with the editors of Canadian Geographic. The complete interview appears here: CG Give us a sense of what the centennial of Parks Canada means for the agency. A.L. For Parks Canada, and for Canada, it is really celebrating the first national park organization in the world. This is a country that had the foresight and leadership to be the first to build an exceptional system of natural and heritage places. J. B. Harkin [first commissioner of the Dominion Parks Branch in 1911] and others before us set the way for a system plan that is representative of our country. So, for me, it is a celebration of who we are as Canadians and of the foresight and leadership of past heads of Parks Canada and past prime ministers. CG How do you go about celebrating that? Tell us about some of the events planned for 2011 that will bring that to life? A.L. It started this weekend with Winterlude here in Ottawa, where the opening ceremony included a project called the National Parks Project. Fifty musicians and filmmakers from Canada went through our national parks last summer and each produced a one‐hour documentary. Some of the best were being showcased at Winterlude. We want to connect Canadians to their stories, to our national parks, to our national historic sites, and invite them to celebrate with us.

The event is a joint effort led by Outdoor Afro and the National Park Service (Golden Gate National Recreation Area) with support from the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, chapters of the Buffalo Soldiers Motorcycle Club, the city of Los Banos, the Presidio Trust, the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) and the Yosemite Conservancy. The group will honor the legacy of the Buffalo Soldiers who served our country nationally and internationally. In particular, the 24th Infantry and the 9th Cavalry protected both Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks in 1899, 1903 and 1904. “It’s amazing how little of this history is known,” says Teresa Baker, Outdoor Afro trip leader and co-organizer of the event. “I think it is important for us to recognize the role that our forbearers played in protecting some of our country’s most iconic national parks.” Baker’s innate love for nature and the outdoors spurred her to create the first African American National Parks Weekend last year.

  • Growing Together
    Growing Together 2014 UC MASTER GARDENER CONFERENCE October 7–10, 2014 | Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite Welcome I’d like to personally welcome each of you to the 2014 UC Master Gardener conference. It’s an exciting time for our community as we have grown to 6,048 volunteers in 50 counties across the state of California. Thank you for growing with us, staying ever adaptable, motivated and responsive as we find new ways to reach our audience with messages of sustainability in the garden. The theme for our conference is “Growing Together” – symbolically represented in our conference logo with the Three Sisters and physically represented at our event with record numbers, new faces and program innovations. Over the next couple of days, we’ll enjoy talks from some of the nation’s leading horticulture and industry experts, network with our peers and get energized about the years to come. UC Master Gardener volunteers remain a vital link between the public and the University of California, especially in times of drought, fire stress and expanding food deserts. I feel fortunate that our community is part of the solution, at the front lines of improving lives and supporting the health of California’s ecosystem. In closing, many thanks to each of you for attending the triennial conference and bringing your energy and expertise to this gathering. A special welcome to the UC Master Food Preservers in attendance – we are so pleased to have you join us. Please enjoy the event and take advantage of the time to network and meet your fellow UC Master Gardeners and UC Master Food Preservers.
