  • How to Collect Coins a Fun, Useful, and Educational Guide to the Hobby
    $4.95 Valuable Tips & Information! LITTLETON’S HOW TO CCOLLECTOLLECT CCOINSOINS ✓ Find the answers to the top 8 questions about coins! ✓ Are there any U.S. coin types you’ve never heard of? ✓ Learn about grading coins! ✓ Expand your coin collecting knowledge! ✓ Keep your coins in the best condition! ✓ Learn all about the different U.S. Mints and mint marks! WELCOME… Dear Collector, Coins reflect the culture and the times in which they were produced, and U.S. coins tell the story of America in a way that no other artifact can. Why? Because they have been used since the nation’s beginnings. Pathfinders and trendsetters – Benjamin Franklin, Robert E. Lee, Teddy Roosevelt, Marilyn Monroe – you, your parents and grandparents have all used coins. When you hold one in your hand, you’re holding a tangible link to the past. David M. Sundman, You can travel back to colonial America LCC President with a large cent, the Civil War with a two-cent piece, or to the beginning of America’s involvement in WWI with a Mercury dime. Every U.S. coin is an enduring legacy from our nation’s past! Have a plan for your collection When many collectors begin, they may want to collect everything, because all different coin types fascinate them. But, after gaining more knowledge and experience, they usually find that it’s good to have a plan and a focus for what they want to collect. Although there are various ways (pages 8 & 9 list a few), building a complete date and mint mark collection (such as Lincoln cents) is considered by many to be the ultimate achievement.

  • 2021 Outdoor Participation Trends Report Table of Contents
    2021 OUTDOOR PARTICIPATION TRENDS REPORT TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Outdoor Participant Diversity The Next A Detailed Methodology Summary Participation Profile Generation Look Snapshot EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2020, 53 percent of Americans ages 6 and over participated in outdoor recreation at least once, the highest participation rate on record. As the COVID-19 pandemic ravaged communities and forced a nationwide shutdown, outdoor spaces became places of refuge to safely socialize, improve physical and mental health, connect with family and recover from screen fatigue. Remarkably, 7.1 million more Americans participated in outdoor recreation in 2020 than in the year prior. Despite these gains, nearly half of the U.S. population did not share in the proven, positive health outcomes of outdoor physical activity. COVID-19 inspired huge TERMINOLOGY participation growth, as detailed throughout this report.

  • The Creative Economy of Houston
    JULY 2012 THECREATIVE ECONOMY OF HOUSTON A comprehensive sTUDY OF creaTIVE-SECTor INDUStrieS and their IMPACT ON THE HOUSTON ECONOMY Commissioned by Houston Arts Alliance and University of Houston in partnership with Greater Houston Partnership Data and Analysis by EMSI Thank you to all of the many thoughtful participants in bringing this study to a reality. Nearly three years WELCOME LETTER ago, Houston Arts Alliance and University of Houston convened a group of creative, academic and policy leaders to discuss the broad creative sector in Houston. A few preliminary take-aways have informed the work since then. Among them is the sense that the delineation between the for-profit creative sectors and the non-profit arts is now highly porous. Artists and other creatives move fluidly between work in major arts institutions, community-based organizations, film, design and other creative endeavors. The “arts” today are about creative expression and creative experience, and don’t fall neatly within for-profit and non-profit parameters. We need to shift the perception from the arts as a quality of life attraction for a well-qualified workforce, to the creative sectors as a tremendously powerful component of the economy unto itself. I believe this study reflects these early ideas. This is a conservative study. By design, we asked our colleagues at EMSI to mirror the study as much as possible to successful studies in other major US cities, but to tailor it to Houston. The result are findings that are defendable, easy to grasp, and are presented within the context of Houston’s job sectors.

  • Chapter 8: Tourism and Traveler Services 252
    Route 116 Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan July 2013 Tourism and Traveler Services C H A P T E R 8 Route 116 Scenic Byway Introduction Visitors are drawn to the Route 116 Byway corridor for the many scenic, natural, recreational, historic, and cultural resources. Travelers experience a wide array of activities and a diverse landscape. With the changing seasons, the types of activities and attractions differ throughout the year. In many ways the Route 116 Scenic Byway embodies a classic New England experience. The goals of this chapter are to provide information on existing resources, services, and attractions available to the Byway traveler; to identify unmet needs related to tourism; and to propose recommendations or identify potential projects to enhance and improve tourism along the Byway. The chapter contains an inventory of the existing tourism services including the location of visitor centers and information agencies, as well as websites and publications that provide additional traveler information. A summary of attractions and resources along the Byway, including scenic and natural attractions, outdoor recreation opportunities, historic and cultural resources, events and festivals, and public restroom facilities, is also provided. Resources that have not been detailed in previous chapters of the Corridor Management Plan are included in this chapter. The resources that are located directly on or within a half-mile radius of the Route 116 Scenic Byway are noted with the “America’s Byway” symbol. While the Corridor Management Plan focuses on resources within a half‐mile radius of the Byway (Route 116), this chapter of the report also includes attractions that are located outside of the study area boundary, but within the towns along the Byway.
