22. Summary Of Environmental Impacts Associated With Sailing Yachts In particularly where it involves land claim and Nationally, sailing has a more significant impact upon than other waterbased recreational activities and tends http://www.ukmarinesac.org.uk/activities/recreation/r06_02_2.htm

Recreation Guidelines Sailing - Yachts : Summary Summary of environmental impacts The launching of craft from formal/constructed access points is likely to have minimal impact on marine features except where it involves trampling and scouring of the feature. Although an existing slipway may have a continuing impact on a feature, site designation suggests that the site can support the facility with its current level and type of use and maintenance. However, if the usage levels of the site increase greater impacts may occur, such increase therefore require close monitoring. The launching of craft from non-constructed access points may result in compaction and erosion of features both on land and in the intertidal area. Anchor drag from swinging moorings may disturb sediment and benthic communities. Where craft maintenance takes place on water or on mud/sand flats at low tide sediment and benthic communities may by exposed to contamination from anti-foulant products.

Environment Act 1995 Water Industry Act 1991 Code of Practice on Conservation, Access and Recreation: Guidance for the Environment Agency and Water and Sewerage Undertakers 5. RECREATION GENERAL 5.1 The relevant bodies are required to take such steps as are reasonably practicable and consistent with other enactments relating to their functions, to secure that any rights which they have to the use of water and associated land are exercised so as to ensure that the water or land is made available, in the best manner, for recreational purposes. Opportunities are particularly likely to arise in respect of: inland reservoirs, flooded gravel pits and coastal waters, which may be an important resource for water sports, such as sailing, windsurfing and canoeing, and for angling, walking and birdwatching upland water gathering grounds, where there should be provision for informal recreation such as walking, mountaineering and enjoyment of the countryside. Wherever practicable, access on roads and tracks should be extended to equestrians and cyclists for informal recreation. Access for organised activities such as orienteering, climbing, paragliding and caving should be granted unless there are clear reasons why it should be refused. 5.2 The Agency also has a general duty to promote the use of inland and coastal waters and associated land for recreational purposes.

Recreational Activities Metropolitan Recreation Detroit is one of the nation's largest cities, and its residents enjoy a multitude of recreational opportunities. The Detroit Social Club, where young people get together to go out or participate in basketball, volleyball and other sports leagues, offers great networking opportunities and chances to meet other young professionals in the area. And then there are the recreational activities that aren't so traditional, such as whirlyball, where you ride in bumper cars and your team competes against another team to get the ball to the goal. There are also metroparks throughout the Detroit metropolitan region, where one can get away from the city and enjoy the serenity of forests and bodies of water, as well as rent boats for sailing and experience the solitude of the lake.

26. Response To The Yodeler, August 2001, And The Sierra Club And CESP Plan For The park is the water, not the land, and there The North sailing Basin offers a much larger percent of parkland needed to support recreational activities, and more http://www.well.com/user/pk/waterfront/EastshoreStatePark/YodelerResponse.html

An open letter to The Yodeler , the local newsletter of the Sierra Club. August 21, 2001 Preserving the East Bay Shoreline: What are we Really Trading Away? The article by Norman LaForce in the August Yodeler makes a strong and valid case for habitat preservation along the shoreline of the new Eastshore State Park. But should we really be painting all of the various bodies of water within the Eastshore State Park boundaries with the same broad brush? The problem, as accurately stated in The Yodeler , is that the area offers outstanding recreational opportunities. Many of these recreational opportunities are water-based. Arguably the most valuable open space in this park is the water, not the land, and there is considerable demand for greater access to various forms of recreation involving non-motorized motion over water. There is a sublime satisfaction in simply floating on water and directing one's own course. At the most basic level, this can be achieved by providing good launch facilities for kayaks, and by providing entry-level rental rowboats for casual visitors. This is the kind of activity that cements one's relationship to the natural value of the shoreline, and ultimately broadens the constituency of the various environmental activist communities. So when we propose to limit human access to virtually all of the accessible water area, and severely limit recreational support facilities on the shoreline, we have to take a close look at what we might be trading away.

Our students share great times and make lasting friendships. NEMC's 200 acres feature a 6-acre recreational complex with 3 tennis courts, soccer field, 2 softball diamonds, volleyball and badminton courts, archery range, and basketball court. Aerobics, dramatics, and physical fitness are other recreational options. Highly-qualified life guards and water safety instructors coordinate lessons and recreational swimming. We also offer instruction in sailing and canoeing for beginning through advanced levels. We carefully select our counseling staff of 25 college students for their interest in and ability to lead young people. Living in the cabins with the campers, the counselors coach recreational activities and organize all social events. A counselor's primary role is to support and encourage each camper. They make sure there are "No strangers - only friends new campers have yet to meet." Students also particularly like to gather around campfires at the edge of the lake where they sing songs together, tell stories, and watch gorgeous sunsets as darkness falls.

References 2.8.0 Recreation and Leisure 2.8.1 Background The estuary supports a range of recreational activities, both on the water and on the adjacent land, including: yachting, cruising, dinghy sailing, canoeing, rowing, windsurfing, angling, walking, cycling and bird watching. It is the only one of the four estuaries on the Isle of Wight which is accessible to the public along most of the shoreline and intertidal areas. It is used by individuals, clubs, training centres and for organised events and regattas. In 1996, approximately 250 water based and 15 land based recreation events were organised. Recreation facilities on the estuary include sailing and rowing clubs, training centres, slipways and landing facilities, marinas, moorings, public footpaths and a cyclepath. Maps 7 and 8 illustrate the location of recreational provision and public access within the estuary. Angling: Watching birds and other wildlife: Watching birds and other wildlife is very popular along the shores of the estuary. It occurs most extensively in areas adjacent to Dodnor Creek, Kingston mudflats, Folly Lake, Pinkmead Creek and the mudflats adjacent to the Medina Valley Centre. The estuary is also used as a field study site for courses provided by the Medina Valley Centre.

FILEX 9 looks at the reasons why people visit Exmoor and considers how they spend their time. It identifies positive and negative effects of large numbers of visitors and describes the role of the Exmoor National Park Authority in management for visitors. See FILEX 10 'Tourism on Exmoor' for the economic effects of tourism. See also Questex published by the ENPA. People visiting Exmoor Every year tens of thousands of people visit Exmoor. Most come by car. Some simply want to enjoy the beautiful scenery while others come to take advantage of the many opportunities that exist for quiet open air activities. When the National Parks Act was passed in 1949 it was not just to conserve wild areas of magnificent scenery The Government of the time thought that people, especially those living in cities, needed to get away sometimes from their ordinary everyday circumstances. It was thought that spending a day out in the country in the freedom of the open air would benefit people's health and quality of life. Britain in 1949 was still suffering the after effects of World War II. Since then there have been many changes for the better in people's working conditions and in the level of real income earned. Shorter working hours and longer holidays give more opportunities for leisure and for getting away from things. The motor car has become the most popular means of transport and roads improved to take the growing volume of traffic. Some people now travel to Exmoor all through the year from places like Birmingham, Cardiff and London just for a day out, though most visitors (77% in 1994) stay in the area for the traditional week or fortnight's holiday or the two or three day 'short break' which is becoming very popular.

Lake Onalaska started as river bottom land, streams and fields rich with riverboat and Native American folklore. In the mid 1930's when the Lock and Dam systems were built on the upper Mississippi the back waters flooded this land and created the lake. Today the lake is used for many recreational activities such as camping, fishing, hunting and of course sailing. The La Crosse Sailing Club was formed in the early 1950's by a few hardy Snipe racers. It has developed into a facility with approximately 100 family memberships and monthly social events, weekly racing, frequent regattas and good times daily.
