In a recent article in this magazine, I spoke about the many underlying partnerships that contribute to our organization. During the past several months I enjoyed working together with our partners as we developed new trail, sought to protect the trail, and opened new partnerships. Clearly, this process is based on our ability to develop strong and meaningful relationships and maintain those relationships over the years. Possibly, by now, you start to see the “ships” to which I am referring ---partnerships and relationships. There are many such “ships,” and another worthy of mention is ownership. Just recently, we expanded waitress by Photo our ownership of property through the At a meeting in Corning in January, left ot right, Pat Monahan, Peggy Coleman, Dick Hubbard, and Phil transfer and creation of the Bock-Harvey Dankert form a task force to work on an upcoming state grant for marketing the FLT. Preserve and additionally through a recent gift of land in the eastern section of the trail. Ownership comes with a commitment to conservation, protection, maintenance and caring, again taking time, work and dedication, but possibly with hands a bit dirtier! Two other “ships” seem to tie all others together. One, and possibly the most important, is stewardship, for stewardship brings with it an ethical value that calls on us to be responsible for managing ALL of our resources. This is where all of our “ships” are docked, tied up and cared for, this harbor named stewardship. It is our money, land, partnerships and relationships, and our interests in each for which we are obligated to care for responsibly. As members, volunteers and workers, and even as casual users of the trail, we must remain focused on being good stewards to be successful. Lastly, the “ship” with the fullest sails is friendship! After all, the Finger Lakes Trail offers a unique place to play, enjoy and nurture oneself. It provides opportunities for liveri fellowship, sportsmanship, craftsmanship and a place eff O to seek opportunities of solitude, group adventure and J challenge. It is a place to make friends and have fun.

  • Census 2010 Redistricting Data: First Impressions for New York State
    Census 2010 redistricting data First impressions for New York State Jan K. Vink Program on Applied Demographics Cornell University March 24, 2011 Program on Applied Demographics Web: http://pad.human.cornell.edu Email: [email protected] About Cornell Program on Applied Demographics The Program on Applied Demographics (PAD) brings skills in demographics, economics, statistics, data gathering and data analysis together to provide a variety of organizations with data, information and advice. PAD works closely with the New York State Department of Economic Development, the U.S. Census Bureau and other organizations to assist them in their activities. 2 Summary On March 24, 2011 the U.S. Census Bureau released Census 2010 redistricting data for New York State. This data gives detailed race information for the total population and voting age population down to the block level. Future products releases will give more insight in other demographic changes. This document details some first impressions of the demographic changes in New York State in the last decade. The major conclusions: New York State gained just over 400,000 people during the decade, a growth of 2.1%. During the 90’s the State population gained 5.5%, meaning we saw a slow-down in the growth of the total population. This growth fell far behind the growth of the total U.S. population of 9.7%. With the 2.1% growth New York ranked 47 amongst all the states. New York lost two seats in the House of Representatives. The growth in the states was not evenly among counties and NY’s ten economic districts.

    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.
