IWhich is a little funny when you consider just how far away I travelled for school to avoid my family (although just in case my mom and dad are reading this: I’m only kidding guys! Love you both!). At this point in my life, still not yet even three- quarters of the way through my college career, it’s already incredibly difficult to imagine back to my freshman year to a time before I felt like I was a part of Band, which I suppose just reinforces my point. I can try and hazard some guesses, though. The Band Room is the closest thing to my living room that I have experienced on campus. Everything about it harkens back to my upbringing, from the comfy couches where I relax or do homework, to the abundance of pictures across the walls, to the memorabilia strewn about the room, to a TV for group movie nights HAVING A JOLLY GOOD TIME!

The result is an understanding of the park system that facilitates visitation and the integrated, educational experience of nature. This thesis explores the development of on-line information resources for Cincinnati Parks. A Park Finder and Park Guide are utilities designed for the desktop and mobile computing environments, respectively. The Park Finder matches user interests with the available parks and opportunities. Interactive maps are used to display layers of information such as the parks that have hiking or the location of a trail at a specific park. The Park Guide enhances the actual park visit.
