  • Bringing Magic Into Interpretation
    Education Bringing Magic Into Interpretation What is an Interpreter? William Penn Mott, Jr I am constantly being asked, "what is an inter­ Director, National preter?" To get a definition, I consulted the dic­ Park Service tionary which defines an interpreter as, "One that interprets." That's passing the buck. I then looked up the word interpret and found it defined as, "To explain or tell the meaning of; present in understandable terms." I can agree that an inter­ preter should be able to explain or tell the mean­ ing of the subject under discussion and do so in Interpretation understandable terms, but I expect a great deal more from our interpreters. First, they should be professionally trained, en­ thusiastic, creative, flexible, and be able to com­ municate to people at all age levels. Secondly, I believe that a good interpreter should become very knowledgeable about a particular sub­ ject around which he or she can create a unique program that is his or hers alone, and which reflects that person's personality. Thirdly, I want our interpreters to use whatever special talents they may possess in the field of music, drama, puppetry, magic, dance, etc., to en­ rich and create new and exciting interpretive programs. Interpretation has been, and must always be, the hallmark of the National Park Service. An interpreter can be an entertainer, but of greater importance is his or her ability to be an educator utilizing the captivating environment of a national park so as to stimulate interest in, and respect for, the wonders of nature and the interest­ ing and exciting heritage of this country.

  • Hillside NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION the Hillside Neighborhood Is a Residential Island Surrounded by Industry and Freeways
    Approximate boundaries: N-N. Halyard St; S-W. Fond Du Lac Ave; E-N. 6th St; W-Hwy 43 NORTH SIDEHillside NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION The Hillside neighborhood is a residential island surrounded by industry and freeways. The main housing styles in Hillside are the multi-story apartment complexes and one- story homes around the parks. Interspersed are a few old industrial buildings. There are two parks in the Hillside neighborhood--James W. Beckum Park, which has an area for little league baseball, and Carver Park, a 23-acre space with playground equipment. See photos below. HISTORY The area that is today’s Hillside neighborhood is located in the center of what was once known as the city’s Bronzeville community (with borders within Juneau and North Avenues, and old 3rd and 17th Streets— the widest area given by local historians). And before there was Bronzeville, there were other communities in today’s Hillside area. Early populations The original area comprising Hillside was developed after 1850. The early population was mostly German and they lived within walking distance of jobs at tanneries, the Schlitz Brewery, shoe factories, and mills. The Hillside neighborhood specifically attracted a number of German elite. According to John Gurda in Milwaukee, City of Neighborhoods (p. 188): So many Uihleins (owners of the Schlitz Brewery) lived on or near Galena Street that the area was known as “Uihlein Hill,” conveniently overlooking the family’s Third Street brewing complex. One of their mansions, which stayed in the family until the 1940s, stood just north of what is now the Hillside Terrace Family Resource Center.

In a series of slow dissolves, the horizon east of South Shore Park comes alive with the colors of sunrise. As sun clears the horizon, camera slows to real time and pulls back to show the urban lakefront. Host starts talking and walks into the frame. It starts here, of course, where the lake meets the land. Our story dawns beside one of the largest bodies of fresh water on earth. Today Lake Michigan is weather and drinking water, a place to fish and a place to sail, but it’s much more than that. Lake Michigan is why Milwaukee’s here. It was on this shore of an inland sea, where a deep river enters a broad bay, that a city was born. Pan north across bay to downtown and hold. Wave sounds continue. It would be a city known for beer and bubblers, for smokestacks and steeples, for Socialist mayors and major industries. But that’s not how Milwaukee began. Wave sounds up. Indian drumbeats begin. As each wave breaks, a layer of urban features is washed away, and the scene morphs to an early-morning view of a broad beach bordered by forest in deep winter.
