Committee Name ^ Department Chairperson oY/U / / *2- QhO Date ii ABSTRACT Recreation resources are unevenly distributed and constantly changing in the city. In this case, the structure of parks and recreation resources in Omaha, Nebraska, are of concern. To formulate a more precise and meaningful notion of recreation supply and demand; recreation scarcity, allocation and availability were calculated from a block by block survey of Omaha’s population. Population density was used to determine the distribution of population relative to park acreage. Acres per capita within recreation service areas was considered as a rough estimate of intensity of use at park facilities. Additionally, acres of recreation land relative to acres of non-recreation land was used as a rough measure of land availability. Accessibility has been considered in terms of the distance of the population to existing park opportunities. Standard planning allocation measures were applied as yet another yardstick to measure Omaha’s supply of parks and recreation facilities to the public demand. All of this was done to answer the question “Does Omaha have enough land dedicated to parks and recreation facilities to equitably serve the citizens of Omaha?” The thesis was based on Central Place Theory with attention given to the human and environmental interaction. A geographical classification of Omaha’s parks and recreation system was developed, providing a complete inventory of the park system. Problem solving involved an interactive map layering technique which served as a visual aide offering specific details of the City. An assessment of parks and recreation facilities examined the significance of facility distribution in relation to population. The broad geographic scope of the model best serves planners who use different kinds of information simultaneously. The result is a geographic model prescribing parks and recreation facilities for Omaha. The model indicated that more land needed to be dedicated to parks and recreation facilities in order to equitably serve the population. Following the geographic model are points of concern in Omaha, Nebraska, that are also important to further research of parks and recreation facility planning in the City. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I express my most humble regards to Dr. Charles Gildersleeve and Dr. Jeff Peake for facilitating my geographic education in a manner that allowed knowledge and experience to be applied as I created my own definition of geography. They offered both depth and breadth of geographic understanding to my graduate experience. Without their approval, my understanding of the cultural-physical interface of geography would lack the necessary confidence. These f two individuals have brought balance to the master's program at UNO that satisfied intellectual curiosities, one from a cultural perspective and the other from the physical aspects of geography. Dr. Peter Suzuki's approval had been requested, for h e expressed a genuine interest in this project upon its conception in 1991. His contribution offered greater confidence in the planning model as his work with public administration is both academic and applied. Additionally, I asked Mr. David Thorndike to endorse the historical and philosophical content of my research. To ensure that the maps chosen as examples of my work are not only in keeping with professional standards, but also that their meaning can be interpreted adequately, I thank Dr. Mike Peterson for his direction as well. I would like to mention Mr. Martin Shukert for recognizing m y potential in park planning and sending me to meet Ms. Delores Silkworth, Ms. Karen Klein and Ms. Gail Knapp. They provided many opportunities to participate in the planning process, helped me throughout the internship and during the writing of this thesis. Their professional interaction made this thesis project much more valuable v than sheer number crunching and rhetoric. Your confidence in me made all the difference in my success as a planning geographer. It is a privilege to have interacted with all the individuals I have come to know while working on the project and writing the thesis. Special thanks to my friends Collin Hollcomb, Bob Watrel, Jeff Simon and Dale Spencer who helped me visit every park in the Omaha vicinity and complete the final stages of the thesis. I’d like to thank my grandmother for her faith in me; my father for his strength and courage; my mother for teaching me patience; my sisters Bonnie and Renee for giving me hope; my brother Rick and step-son Matt for inspiring me through their success and adventures. To my sixth grade science teacher, Mr. Cowan, who said, “Anyone can make a book. It is the contents that made all the difference.” TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page ............................................................................................................................. i Thesis Acceptance Page...................................................................................................ii Abstract..............................................................................................................................iii Acknowledgments ............................................................................................................. v Table Of Contents ........................................................................................................... vii List of Figures ...................................................................................................................ix I.

    Over 200 Volunteers Beautify Carter Lake On September 17, 2005 over 200 volunteers supported the day long community event pulling trash and recyclables from garbage-laden Carter Lake. Area Captains, Merl Harder, Barb Hawkins, Jerre and Mark Hunter, and Jan Petersen started from four different locations on the lake and kept their teams moving in the water and on the shoreline. Volunteers filled bags with trash and placed them in canoes. Jet ski and pontoon drivers pulled the canoes to three trash sorting sites. The plan was to walk the entire seven miles of shoreline starting on the Nebraska side at 8:30 AM. Not all the Nebraska After Mayor Hausner welcomed everyone, Merry Rankin gives instructions. shoreline was cleaned. The volunteers wanted time to walk the shores of Mabrey Park, Shoreline Golf Course, and the Carter Lake Club area in the afternoon. At times, the task appeared impossible. While walking along the lake in Levi Carter Park, Area Captain, Barb Hawkins, “This is overwhelming; we are going so slowly. I didn’t realize there was 34 Creighton students from the row team sign up after practice on Saturday AM. Dan Chipps, coach (far right), looks on. so much garbage out here. Each step uncovered more trash. It looks like people were fishing and drinking and then just throwing their bottles in the lake.” Metal, Trash and Recyclables The volunteers collected over 50 bags of recyclable containers and filled three 20 foot containers with recyclable metal. Interesting things pulled from the lake were: partial and complete 55 gallon

  • Displacements and Hmong Transnational Politics, 1975-2010
    Dreaming of Home, Dreaming of Land: Displacements and Hmong Transnational Politics, 1975-2010 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Her Vang IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Erika Lee, Advisor July 2010 © Her Vang 2010 All rights reserved ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In 1933, the Lakota author Luther Standing Bear suggested that written history was second best to oral tradition because “a people enrich their minds who keep their history on the leaves of memory.”1 For much of their history, the Hmong also stored their past not in books but on “the leaves of their memory,” and they passed down their history orally from one generation to the next. Parents in Euro-America read to their children to put them to sleep, but Hmong children traditionally fell asleep listening to their parents tell Hmong folklores and their own family history. Storytelling and history- telling were important parts of traditional Hmong culture and livelihood. A Hmong child who learned the most Hmong folklores and knew the most about the family’s history often grew up to become the leader of the family and the clan. Today, the keeper of the family’s past is still the leader of the family and the clan. A Hmong leader knows all the secrets of his family and clan, and he is responsible for resolving all disputes involving his family and clan. Despite this significance, history, I admit, has not always been my chosen field of academic inquiry. First, I previously had no strong motivation to do written history because written history, for the Hmong, was secondary to their oral tradition.
