The Forestry and Recreation Commission submits herewith its re port for the years 1943 and 1944. Three things have happened since 1932 that have profoundly in fluenced and altered the course of the work of this department: the aftermath of the depression gave us the State and Federal Work Pro grams, the hurricane devastated a large part of o’ur forests and the war depleted our timber resources and our working personnel. With lumber production and all business at their low ebb in 1932, State and Federal measures for relief of unemployment furnished work programs which could not have been considered in ordinary times, particularly in developing facilities for recreational use in our public reservations.

  • The Student Conservation Association Annual Report 2007
    The Student Conservation Association Annual Report 2007 Annual Report 2007 1 2 Student Conservation Association A lever for moving the world. The power to save the planet. For 50 years, the volunteers of the Student Conservation Association have preserved national parks, restored ailing lands, and left a wondrous collective legacy on the American landscape. Their mission – indeed, the youth conservation movement – started with the brilliantly simple idea of Elizabeth Cushman Titus Putnam, then a recent college graduate herself. Liz’s 1955 senior thesis introduced the concept of a “Student Conservation Corps” and over the past half-century, SCA has become a living, breathing how-to manual for engaging young people in the practice of stewardship. Today, amid climate change, urbanization, and “nature-deficit disorder,” SCA is writing important new chapters in conservation. The contemporary challenges facing our planet demand that we broaden our environmental efforts, even as we continue to serve our treasured parks and forests. Thus SCA is unleashing bold new strategies that will mark our next 50 years by… • Bringing sustainable, green practices to communities in need… • Connecting young people of every background to the land around them, and… • Instilling a modern ethic of stewardship that will guide a new generation. SCA doesn’t just take a stand – we take action. From mountain trails to Main Streets, and from seashores to city schools, SCA is redefining conservation all across our nation. Annual Report 2007 3 A letter from the chairman It is inspiring to realize, more than five decades later, that what started as two teams of students in Grand Teton and Olympic National Parks has evolved today into the nation’s most powerful conservation service force.

  • Forestry and Recreation Cornmission
    State of New Hampshire BIENNIAL REPORT of the Forestry and Recreation Cornmission 1947 - 1948 I I I Paper or canoe birch — the State Tree of New Hampshire. eftozi To His Excellency, the Governor, and the Honorable Council: The Forestry and Recreation Commission submits herewith its report for the two fiscal years ending June 30, 1948. This contains a record of the activities of the two divisions, and brief accounts of re lated agencies prepared by the State Forester and Director of Recre ation and their staffs. As use of the state forests, reservations and recreational areas increased during the post-war period of prosperity and desire for more and more people to travel, these years have called for an expansion of facilities and developments aimed at meeting the demand. Services to private forest owners have also risen greatly, and the disastrous fire season of 1947 has placed severe strains on the forest fire protec tive organization. In spite of the problems, and difficulties en countered, the period has been characterized by an endeavor to satisfy public needs for our varied services. W. ROBINSON BROWN, HARRY K. ROGERS, OWEN JOHNSON, RANDALL E. SPALDING, CHARLEs’ E. GREENMAN, Forestry and Recreation Commission. JOHN H. FOSTER, State Forester RUSSELL B. TOBEY, Director of Recreation i IN MEMORIAM ELPHEGE J. COUTURE 1903-1949 The Forestry and Recreation Commission regrets to record the passing on January 28, 1949 of Mr. E. J. Couture, who has rendered outstanding service to the state for 30 years as administrative assistant in charge of forest fire prevention and control. Not only did he carry on the exacting forest fire details of the office, but by attendance at meetings of the County Forest Fire Wardens Associa tions and otherwise, he maintained a personal contact with town fire wardens, and other members of the fire organization throughout the state.
