Library On behalf of the Board members and employees of the Hudson’s Hope Public Li- brary, we hope you have all had a wonderful holiday season and wish you all the best for a happy and healthy 2014! A great big thank you to both of the Hudson’s Hope Fire Halls for making such a substantial donation! We have now received our new tablet style children’s desktop computer that was sponsored by the kind and generous members of both fire hall teams. Our new children’s computer uses the touch screen technology that our younger patrons have all come to enjoy with our iPads but it can be used like a standard home computer with a keyboard and mouse! We will soon have this computer set up so that your children can do their homework and print through our printers. The Bulletin 2 January 2014 New - reduced printing rates will apply for children printing homework materials. We have installed parental controls, so that children can enjoy browsing the inter- net while visiting the library. It will likely become a very popular item, as the iPads are and we may need to limit time for each child on the new computer if there is a queue for playtime. This computer will not need a signed parental consent form in order for your child to use it, as the adult computers do. If there are specific types of websites that you do not approve of but are approved by our parental controls, please make this known both to your children and the librarians. I believe if your children are aware that we know their internet access limitations, they will not be tempted to access these websites in your absence. Story time starts up again on Tuesday, January 7th starting at 10:30 am. This is a special time when the library opens up just for parents/guardians and tots for lots of fun, crafts and of course stories! Library Club also returns on Wednesday, January 8th at 3:30 pm. School aged children can come in and also get to enjoy games and crafts for older children. It is a lot of fun and even the librarians who do not run the program cannot help but get swept up in the action and excitement of Library Club!

  • 80 Sport and Recreation Influence Upon Mountain Area And
    Journal of Environmental and Tourism Analyses Vol. I.1 (2013) 80 - 89 Sport and Recreation Influence upon Mountain Area and Sustainable Tourism Development Jelica J. MARKOVIĆ1 Marko D. PETROVIĆ, University of Novi Sad, Serbia Abstract: In contemporary tourism, sport and recreation are increasingly becoming the dominant motives for undertaking the journey, and as a result of modern living, active holidays are more frequent. Mountain areas have always been attractive to deal with the various sports activities. Winter sports were the initiators of the development of mountain resorts. Mountain resorts invest in construction of hotels, ski lifts, snowmaking equipment, for the sake of attracting a growing number of tourist clientele. On the other hand, sport and recreation also serve to promote summer mountain tourism. Tennis, golf, swimming, horseback riding are key tools to attract visitors in the summer months toward the resorts facilities. The main problems regarding the development of mountain tourism centers come in the form of the growing concern for the preservation of the environment, of the human and traffic congestion in the mountains and the intensive use of natural resources by tourists. This paper aims to highlight the positive and negative impacts of sport and recreation in the development of mountain tourism and to present possible solutions to reduce negative impacts. Methodology is based on document review of many bibliographic resources, which are related with skiing and mountain biking as examples of winter and summer sport activities on mountains. Key words: sport and recreation, mountain tourism, sustainable development, environmental protection 1. Introduction The new millennium is one that poses a number of new tourism challenges.

  • Parks, Open Space & Trails Master Plan Update 2014
    Parks, Open Space & Trails Master Plan Update 2014 Introductory Remarks The Town of Silverthorne has been making big strides lately. With the recent adoption of the 2014 Comprehensive Plan (“Blueprint Silverthorne”) and its focus on revitalization of the Town’s downtown core, there is a sense of renewed vigor and community spirit. Recreation can play an important role in supporting this revitalization. For those who live here, recreation, culture, and the outdoor lifestyle are part of the community fabric. The Town has nurtured this through the development of its high-quality parks, open spaces, and trails. The Town has also recognized that its recreational resources appeal to a wider audience—including the many visitors who come to Silverthorne for its many shopping options and events. It is this recognition, above all, that shapes this Parks, Opens Space and Trails Plan. It is the recognition that through the support of high-quality recreational resources that first-and-foremost meet the needs of locals, new opportunities can be realized that benefit all who come to the Town of Silverthorne whether to live, work, stay or play.

Romania is a country with a very varied and diverse tourism potential and a landscape consists of 27.91% mountains of total country area, with altitudes between 600 – 2500 m, an average height of 840 m and 10% of the country’s territory above 1500 m (Cernaianu et al, 2017). In Romania the winter sports tourism are focused on the skiing activity and ski resorts. There are some 27 licensed ski areas in Romania with around 80 authorized ski slopes, and a variety of ski lifts, gondolas, chair lifts, skid lifts and cable cars with a capacity of over 35,000 persons an hour serving these areas (Romania National Tourism Master Plan 2007 – 2026). There is heavy demand at weekends during the winter when snow conditions are favorable. Sport event tourism is a huge and growing global industry with important economic implications for both the sport, the event and the impact of travel and tourism related benefits on host destinations (Candrea et al, 2010). The most popular winter touristic destinations in Romania are: Poiana Brasov, Predeal, Sinaia. Previous quantitative marketing research outlined that 45% of tourists are entirely satisfied with the quality of the accommodation units in Braşov city and 37.9% of tourists feel the same way about Poiana Braşov (Candrea et al, 2010).

Desirable competencies when hiring outdoor pursuits trip leaders on university and college campuses. MS in Recreation Management, August 2012, 55pp. (S. Simpson) Many universities offer outdoor pursuits trips (e.g., backpacking, canoeing) for their students. These trips include incoming student orientation programs, physical education and recreation classes, and extracurricular activities. The leaders who are leading these trips play a key role in making the trip a success (Shooter, Paisley, & Sibthorp, 2009a). Having the right staff to facilitate these trips is very important. There are many components that go into hiring competent people and training quality outdoor leaders (Teschner & Wolter, 1990). The overriding problem is a lack of knowledge of general standards regarding outdoor leaders in university programs. While there are agencies that accredit outdoor programs (e.g., Wilderness Education Association (WEA), Association for Experiential Education (AEE)), many university programs do not seek accreditation, but instead set their own criteria for leaders.

After the 14 Democratic state sen­ ators left the state last week in an effort to slow down the Budget Repair Bill, they have -begun to widen their argu­ ments against it. Democratic Senator and University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point alumnus, Julie Lassa, released a statement on the economic impact of the bill in her district. "If the Governor's bill goes through, the city's transit system will have to be shut down as a result of the loss of transit funding from the federal government due to the absence of collective bargaining pro­ visions," said Lassa. This is because the federal gov­ ernment requires transit employees to get a carting amount of fringe bene­ fits for a city to receive federal money. If the bill passes, Stevens Point transit employees may loose those required benefits and the federal money. UWSP students pay a segregated Photo by Samantha Feld fee into The City Bus system so that Govenor Scott Walker's Budget Repair Bill could cause The Stevens Point City Bus system to lose all federal money and shut down. they may ride the bus for free.
