    Newsletter Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Mexico May 2016 Oglebay Scholarship, a Roy Saunders Memorial By now, most of you have heard that longtime IAVM Region 6 member, Roy Saunders, CFE, passed away on April 14, 2016. A family friend said that Roy’s motto was “Life is about making the most out of what you are given. Live a little, have some fun…live a little, love a lot!” His daughter, Dawn, wrote this: "God has wiped away every tear and regret, and Roy is celebrating in Heaven today. Dad was a true original...a character in the best sense. If you knew him, you loved him. He was a smart and accomplished man...he was funny, strong, and authentic. “ Saunders was a long-time member of the International Association of Venue Managers, joining in 1957. Roy served in numerous capacities and held almost every office within the association. His influence as a leader, mentor and friend to the membership spanned seven decades. Saunders is the only person in IAVM history to be the recipient of the IAAM Mr. Auditorium Manager award, the Charles A McElravy award (the industry’s highest honor), and serve as IAAM President. Roy saw a need for top- level training for entertainment venue executives and helped conceive and found the Venue Management School (formerly Public Assembly Facility Management School) at Oglebay Park in Wheeling, WV, in 1987. At the IAVM Region 6 meeting in Denver, Bob Mayer announced that Kerry Painter and SMG-Tulsa had made a $250 donation to the region’s scholarship fund in Roy’s name, and then he matched it on the spot! On hearing the news back home in Tulsa, Roy’s family was so very pleased with the gesture, that Joyce Saunders donated $1000 in his name.

    Table 20 Great American Rail-Trail Statistics in Wyoming

    Wyoming ROUTE Wyoming has the potential to be an incredible section of the Great American Rail-Trail. Its landscapes are unique in the United States, and Wyoming is already known for its outdoor recreation assets. Because of Wyoming’s topography, any route through Wyoming will require sizable grade increases at several locations. Local options including shuttle services could be explored to accommodate trail users who are unable to traverse these grade increases. Currently, there are not significant miles of multiuse trail that could be used to route a trail across Wyoming. However, with the statewide commitment to the project and the exceptional landscapes across the state, the Great American Rail-Trail is a viable project to help Wyoming with its outdoor recreation and tourism economy. RTC found and reviewed 20 plans in Wyoming to better understand the state’s trail priorities. A full list of these plans can be found in Appendix A.

The study outlined that recreational and environmental uses needed to be identified and mapped, in a way that would assess their interactions with traditional water uses throughout the state of Wyoming. Harvey Economics completed the study in 2012, with a report and handbook being produced to identify a consistent viewpoint and accounting process for E&R water demands and to help guide river basin planning efforts in moving forward. The methods developed in the handbook were implemented on the Wind-Bighorn River Basin (Basin), and the results of the Basin plan update are provided in this report. In addition to the handbook guidelines, Western Ecosystems Technology, Inc. coordinated with the WWDC to further the analysis through the development of three models: 1) protection, 2) environmental, and 3) recreation. The Basin is located in central and northwestern Wyoming. Approximately 80% of Yellowstone National Park (YNP) is included in the Basin. Elevations in the Basin are variable as the Wind River and Bighorn Mountains funnel water from alpine areas to lower river corridors.

  • The Fragile Legacy of Amphicoelias Fragillimus (Dinosauria: Sauropoda; Morrison Formation – Latest Jurassic)

    The Fragile Legacy of Amphicoelias Fragillimus (Dinosauria: Sauropoda; Morrison Formation – Latest Jurassic)

    Volumina Jurassica, 2014, Xii (2): 211–220 DOI: 10.5604/17313708 .1130144 The fragile legacy of Amphicoelias fragillimus (Dinosauria: Sauropoda; Morrison Formation – latest Jurassic) D. Cary WOODRUFF1,2, John R. FOSTER3 Key words: Amphicoelias fragillimus, E.D. Cope, sauropod, gigantism. Abstract. In the summer of 1878, American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope published the discovery of a sauropod dinosaur that he named Amphicoelias fragillimus. What distinguishes A. fragillimus in the annals of paleontology is the immense magnitude of the skeletal material. The single incomplete dorsal vertebra as reported by Cope was a meter and a half in height, which when fully reconstructed, would make A. fragillimus the largest vertebrate ever. After this initial description Cope never mentioned A. fragillimus in any of his sci- entific works for the remainder of his life. More than four decades after its description, a scientific survey at the American Museum of Natural History dedicated to the sauropods collected by Cope failed to locate the remains or whereabouts of A. fragillimus. For nearly a cen- tury the remains have yet to resurface. The enormous size of the specimen has generally been accepted despite being well beyond the size of even the largest sauropods known from verifiable fossil material (e.g. Argentinosaurus). By deciphering the ontogenetic change of Diplodocoidea vertebrae, the science of gigantism, and Cope’s own mannerisms, we conclude that the reported size of A. fragillimus is most likely an extreme over-estimation. INTRODUCTION saurs pale in comparative size; thus A. fragillimus could be the largest dinosaur, and largest vertebrate in Earth’s history Described by Edward Drinker Cope in 1878, the holo- (the Blue Whale being approximately 29 meters long [Reilly type (and only) specimen of A.
