SUMMARY:Memorial Park Association Veterans Day Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Memorial Park Association to honor all who serve\, including the 1\,220 Floridians who died in WWI and for which the park was built in their honor. \nThe Backdoor Stompers and the Riverside Presbyterian Church Choir will be performing. \nThe poppy has become a symbol to mark our respect for those who died during the First World War\, World War II\, as well as the millions of other people affected by war. \nRemembrance Day\, formerly called Armistice Day\, was first celebrated on November 11\, 1919 to honor World War I soldiers. The date was selected because it was on this day at 11:00 AM in 1918 that the Allied Nations and Germany reached a cease-fire\, or Armistice\, which led to the end of the �Great War\,� as it is often called. \nPlease bring folding chairs or blankets. \n \n

The association wants to promote local understanding of why the park is significant in America. \nLaurence Cotton is a writer\, historian\, and filmmaker who studied cultural anthropology and film at Hampshire College and served as principal researcher and consulting producer for Frederick Law Olmsted: Designing America. Following the screening\, which premiered nationwide on PBS in June 2014\, Cotton will hold a Q & A. \nFrederick Law Olmsted: Designing America is a co-production of WNED-TV Buffalo-Toronto and Florentine Films/Hott Productions\, Inc.. The documentary is narrated by Stockard Channing and the voice of Olmsted is performed by Campbell Scott. For additional information about the documentary\, please visit: http://www.pbs.org/wned/frederick-law-olmsted/home/ \nAbout Memorial Park and the Memorial Park Association\nMemorial Park is located at 1620 Riverside Ave.\, between Margaret Street and Memorial Park Drive in Riverside near the 5 Points area of Jacksonville\, Fla. Established in 1986\, The Memorial Park Association is a nonprofit charitable organization serving its mission to enhance\, promote and preserve Memorial Park as the premier historic park in the City of Jacksonville. Designed by the famed Olmsted Brothers and dedicated on Dec. 25\, 1924\, it is the only park in the state dedicated to the 1\,220 Floridians who lost their lives in service during World War I. In 2012\, the Memorial Park Association initiated major planning efforts to restore and rehabilitate Memorial Park to its original grandeur\, culminating in the development of a viable master plan that will serve as the foundation for continued restoration efforts. Learn more about Memorial Park and the Memorial Park Association here or visit them on Facebook or Twitter. \n \nAbout Laurence Cotton\nJune 2014 saw the nationwide PBS premiere of a long awaited film project\, Frederick Law Olmsted: Designing America. Writer\, historian and filmmaker\, Laurence originated the Olmsted film\, and served as principal researcher and as Consulting Producer. Directed by his colleague\, Lawrence Hott of Florentine Films/Hott Productions\, the film premiered before public audiences in the key Olmsted cities of Boston\, Buffalo and New York City during the spring of 2014. A prior film project\, C.E.S. Wood\, which Laurence Cotton wrote and produced for the Oregon Experience series on Oregon Public Broadcasting\, has received numerous broadcasts and remains a popular program\, detailing the story of the friendship between the colorful personality C.E.S. Wood – who began his career as a U.S. Army officer engaged in the Indian Wars and who subsequently became one of the leading progressive voices of early 20th Cent. Portland and Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce. \nRaised in the eastern suburbs of Boston\, Mr. Cotton began his career in the arenas of conflict resolution\, international affairs and international humanitarian assistance\, serving on the staff of Oxfam America\, headquartered in Boston\, and with several Harvard University affiliated foreign policy organizations. Laurence also made a foray into public radio\, as an independent producer\, and as executive producer and host of the nationally syndicated show Cambridge Forum. Laurence relocated to Oregon in 1994 to serve as Executive Director of the World Affairs Council of Oregon. Mr. Cotton served on committees that planned legacy projects for the Lewis & Clark Bicentennial\, played a role launching the restoration efforts for Vista House and served as a consultant to the Confluence Project\, a series of environmentally and culturally sensitive landscape installations designed by Maya Lin along the Columbia and Snake Rivers. Laurence Cotton serves as a historian on board small ship cruise vessels that ply the rivers and coastlines of N. America. Mr. Cotton currently serves as Trustee of the Oregon State Parks Foundation. Laurence Cotton studied cultural anthropology and film at Hampshire College\, in Amherst\, Massachusetts. \nLaurence likes to joke that he and Ken Burns were classmates at Hampshire College\, and they made an early film together during their sophomore year. The difference being that Laurence majored in cultural anthropology and minored in film\, whereas Ken majored in film and as they say\, the rest is history. Though do keep in mind\, Laurence’s partner in this Olmsted film project is another Lawrence\, Lawrence Hott\, who was an original partner in Ken Burns production company\, Florentine Films. So\, in essence\, there is a Ken Burns imprimatur on this new film about Frederick Law Olmsted. \n12/20/2016 As Special Screening of “Frederick Law Olmsted: Designing America (Press Release pdf)\nFor all media inquiries\, please email: rpatton@memparkjax.org

SUMMARY:New Bicycle Racks For The Park
DESCRIPTION:FLORIDA BICYCLE ASSOCIATION DONATES TWO BICYCLE RACKS FOR MEMORIAL PARK\nINSTALLATION: WEDNESDAY\, MARCH 2\, 9:00 A.M.\nJacksonville\, Fla. February 29\, 2016 On Wednesday\, March 2nd\, at 9 A.M.\, the City of Jacksonville will install 2 bicycle racks in Memorial Park. The Florida Bicycle Association (via a 2015 donation to the FBA from Jacksonville triathlete coach\, Jen Vogel of Velocity Multi Sport) donated the bicycle racks to the Memorial Park Association to be used in the park. \nIt’s been a long process\, said Florida Bicycle Association Executive Director\, Becky Afonso.  When the FBA received the donation from Jen Vogel at the beginning of 2015\, I made a promise to her to do something for cyclists in the Jacksonville area. To finally see the donation being put to good use has been worth the effort. \nIn 2015\, Velocity Multi Sport encouraged their coaches to be multifaceted and to give back to their community\, not just in the sport of triathlon but however it speaks to them. Coach Jen’s fundraising project was a 2015 calendar featuring local female athletes with their bicycles\, to help raise money and awareness for the Florida Bicycle Association\, a non-for-profit that educates bicyclists\, pedestrians\, and motorists about safely sharing roadways and paths. \nAfonso also said\, The 2015 calendar became a fun\, sexy\, and unique way to highlight the bikes and women that train on Jacksonville roads daily. The calendar was tastefully done and incorporated bicycle safety education along with inspirational bios of the athletes/models. They may not be your everyday cyclist\, but these are real women with real stories who really RIDE. \nKnown as the 2015 Share the Road calendar girls\, Coach Jen Vogel and 11 other women have now fulfilled their intentions of giving back to the Jacksonville community. \nAgnes Danciger\, the Memorial Park Association president\, said\, We are so grateful for this generous donation! So many of our visitors ride their bikes to the park and will now have a place to secure them while they enjoy the park. \n###\nAbout Memorial Park and the Memorial Park Association\nMemorial Park is located at 1620 Riverside Ave.\, between Margaret Street and Memorial Park Drive in Riverside near the 5 Points area of Jacksonville\, Fla.
