  • 1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose and Scope 1.2 Description of Tahoe Donner Association
    Administrative Draft Tahoe Donner Association Master Plan 1 Introduction The stated mission of the Tahoe Donner Association (the Association or TDA) establishes “…a vibrant mountain community providing attractive and well‐maintained facilities, events & other programs to its members, guests and the public while maintaining and improving accessible natural lands in and around the housing development and associated facilities.” Tahoe Donner is a year‐round community with a passion for outdoor recreation and is one of California’s largest homeowner’s associations. Since the early 1970s, the Association has developed extensive recreation centers and opportunities to support their mission. In recent years the community has been engaged in a series of forward looking planning efforts. These planning efforts were considered as the current document was developed and benefitted from this previous work. Such efforts include: 2013 Tahoe Donner Trails Master Plan 2015 Tahoe Donner Trails 5‐Year Implementation Plan Tahoe Donner Strategic Plan (2010) 2030 General Plan (2011) Town of Truckee Trails & Bikeways Master Plan (2007) 1.1 Purpose and Scope One of the stated purposes of TDA’s2030 General Plan is “Continuously maintaining and upgrading amenities to benefit the membership and capture public use and revenue, while still giving members priority and preference, is highly desirable.” The purpose of this document is to help the Association look forward by developing a clear investment vision for capital projects and associated upgrades and service expansions over the next 10 – 20 years. It is designed to prepare a framework for TDA to respond and improve efficiently with future demographic changes. This assessment includes input gathered from board, committees, members, and staff.

Vol. 4, No. 1-1, 2015, pp. 78-86. doi: 10.11648/j.jim.s.2015040101.20 Abstract: This article presents a qualitative analysis of the specific strategies used by coastal resorts in the South of France to valorise their creative regional resources. These strategies emerge from factors of change in the trajectories of the resorts: change in the relationship between man and nature, environmental turning point and the need for sustainability, emergence of creative tourism centred on recreation, sport and culture. The research is supported by three case studies, Biarritz, Lacanau and Martigues, and assesses the constraints that arise in terms of design and management of coastal resorts and tourist areas, against a background of numerous conflicting requirements, including attractiveness and sustainability.

  • Chapter 27. Tourism and Recreation Group of Experts: Alan Simcock
    Chapter 27. Tourism and Recreation Group of Experts: Alan Simcock (Lead member) and Lorna Inniss 1. Introduction Seaside holidays have a long history. They were popular for several hundred years (100 BCE – 400) among the ruling classes of the Roman Empire: these visited the coast of Campania, the Bay of Naples, Capri and Sicily for swimming, boating, recreational fishing and generally lounging about (Balsdon, 1969). But thereafter seaside holidaying largely fell out of fashion. In the mid-18th century, the leisured classes again began frequenting seaside resorts, largely as a result of the health benefits proclaimed by Dr. Richard Russell of Brighton, England, in 1755 (Russell, 1755). Seaside resorts such as Brighton and Weymouth developed in England, substantially helped by the royal patronage of Kings George III and George IV of Great Britain (Brandon, 1974). After the end of the Napoleonic wars, similar developments took place across Europe, for example at Putbus, on the island of Rügen in Germany (Lichtnau, 1996). The development of railway and steamship networks led both to the development of long-distance tourism for the wealthy, with the rich of northern Europe going to the French Riviera, and to more local mass tourism, with new seaside resorts growing up to serve the working classes of industrialised towns in all countries where industrialisation took place. In England, whole towns would close down for a “wakes week”, and a large part of the population would move to seaside resorts to take a holiday: for example, in 1860 in north-west England, 23,000 travelled from the one town of Oldham alone for a week in the seaside resort of Blackpool (Walton, 1983).

SHEILA JEFFREYS Department of Political Science, The University of Melbourne, Victoria 3010, Australia This article examines a recent tendency amongst researchers of sex tourism to include women within the ranks of sex tourists in destinations such as the Caribbean and Indonesia. It argues that a careful attention to the power relations, context, meanings and effects of the behaviours of male and female tourists who engage in sexual relations with local people, makes it clear that the differences are profound. The similarities and differences are analysed here with the conclusion that it is the different positions of men and women in the sex class hierarchy that create such differences. The political ideas that influence the major protagonists in this debate to include or exclude women will be examined. The article ends with a consideration of the problematic implications of arguing that women do it too.

TWIXT OCEAN AND PINES: THE SEASIDE RESORT AT VIRGINIA BEACH, 1880-1930 Jonathan Mark Souther Master of Arts University of Richmond, 1996 Robert C. Kenzer, Thesis Director This thesis descnbes the first fifty years of the creation of Virginia Beach as a seaside resort. It demonstrates the importance of railroads in promoting the resort and suggests that Virginia Beach followed a similar developmental pattern to that of other ocean resorts, particularly those ofthe famous New Jersey shore. Virginia Beach, plagued by infrastructure deficiencies and overshadowed by nearby Ocean View, did not stabilize until its promoters shifted their attention from wealthy northerners to Tidewater area residents. After experiencing difficulties exacerbated by the Panic of 1893, the burning of its premier hotel in 1907, and the hesitation bred by the Spanish American War and World War I, Virginia Beach enjoyed robust growth during the 1920s. While Virginia Beach is often perceived as a post- World War II community, this thesis argues that its prewar foundation was critical to its subsequent rise to become the largest city in Virginia.
