Abstract

The last century has seen a dramatic increase in ramblers, mountaineers, cyclists and hill walkers enjoying the British countryside. This remarkable book charts the history of the outdoor movement from its late Victorian origins to its present status. Harvey Taylor describes how the active participants in the movement combined to create a loosely constructed entity, held together by common areas of interest and shared campaigning concerns. From the formation of Footpath Protection Societies and the development of a Countryside Access campaign in the inter-war years, he emphasises that the movement was very much more than just a 'craze' or a reaction against creeping industrialisation and urbanisation as was portrayed at the time. This is a fascinating introduction to a particularly British recreational phenomenon.

Abstract

Outdoor recreation programming is a growing and diverse field that requires administrators to be ready to work in complex and multidisciplinary environments. Outdoor Program Administration: Principles and Practices will help both seasoned and new administrators--as well as students and emerging professionals--flourish in various settings, including university, military, government, commercial, and nonprofit organizations. You'll learn the best contemporary administrative strategies and practices from veteran professionals from the Association of Outdoor Recreation and Education (AORE). The AORE authors provide extensive coverage of all aspects of administrative duties and responsibilities from a diverse organizational setting. Outdoor Program Administration: Principles and Practices guides you in developing and sustaining programs in outdoor recreation settings across public, private, and nonprofit sectors. You will reap the benefits of the experience shared by the AORE authors, who also provide questions and critical thinking exercises that will enhance the materials and deepen your understanding. This reference explores all the issues pertinent to being a successful outdoor program administrator. The book has four sections: Outdoor Program Foundations, Program Design and Implementation, Staffing Considerations, and Facilities and Programs. Topics you'll delve into include: designing and developing programs; risk management and legal considerations; budgeting and financial operations; marketing and land access (permits); environmental stewardship; staff recruitment, supervision, training, and assessment; and management of indoor climbing walls and challenge courses.

Abstract

Les statistiques le confirment : les enfants sont plus sédentaires qu'avant. Des changements familiaux, sociaux et technologiques font en sorte qu'ils ont perdu l'habitude ? ou qu'on ne leur laisse plus le temps ? de jouer spontanément dehors, seuls, en groupe ou en famille, autour de la maison, au parc ou dans d'autres endroits verts, quand ils sont accessibles? Pourtant, les bienfaits du jeu libre et actif à l'extérieur, lorsque celui-ci est pratiqué en toute sécurité, sont multiples. Peu importe leur âge, les enfants accèdent ainsi à de nouvelles expériences, dépensent leur énergie, laissent libre cours à leur imagination, éliminent les effets négatifs du stress, améliorent leur condition physique, leur concentration de même que leur sommeil. Bref, ils grandissent de la plus belle des façons. En servant de modèles aux jeunes, les parents contribuent activement à leur faire découvrir le plaisir de jouer dehors. En plus de leur fournir des clés pour y parvenir, Viens jouer dehors ! leur suggère un chapitre entier de jeux adaptés aux différents âges, aux différents lieux et à chaque saison.
