After the horrific wildfires in the Jerusalem corridor caused widespread and visible damage to the forests this past spring, Global warming too is having a strong impact this summer. Keren Kayemet L’israel, the JNF, however, has today opened a new visitors center in the Jerusalem Hills site of Sataf, a gorgeous site with flowing springs and plenty of shade. Gidi Bashan, the manager of the mountain district of the KKL, said that the new visitor center was built with green principles that integrate into the natural landscape. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that the global warming and forests were changing the nature of the flora. (photo: JNF)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We still believe in Visitor Centers, even though Visit Fort Colins CEO Cynthia Eichler recently wrote a CDME paper entitled, Visitor Centers are Dead. Why then did she just open a Visitors Center in Downtown Fort Collins? Because it's not simply a Visitor Center. Join us for a fascinating conversation on the creation of a Community Hub, the partnerships that came together to make it happen and how the Center is blowing away initial estimates and expectations. And, we spend one of our questions on the innovative online retail hub they created during the Plague that helped save several Fort Collins businesses.
The Franklin County Visitors Bureau held a world premiere of “Fedelta. Solider. Prisoner” at the Capitol Theatre in downtown Chambersburg. It is a documentary of the Italian Prisoners of War that were kept at the Letterkenny Army Depot during World War II. The documentary was created by Stephen Mancini. “Steve Mancini Productions did a fantastic job shining a spotlight on such a special piece of World War two history. And to have the families bring to life the impact that the experience of being here at Letterkenny Army Depot during World War Two had on their family members. And we look every day we drive by the Letterkenny Chapel. And that's an artifact of that history that forever will make it part of Franklin County and then connect us to those families in Italy. And that was the documentary that just drove that whole, “said Janet Pollard, Executive Director of the Franklin County Visitors Burau. During the Second World War, the depot was about 20,000 acres of farmland. After the attack on Pearl Habor, the government decided to construct an army facility. About 50,000 Italian POW's came to America. 150 of the 50,000 ended up at the Letterkenny Army Depot. “They came here as with at that point in the war, the Italy had which size and become an allied supporter. So those folks that were captured had the opportunity to become cooperators. And most of them, maybe 85% of them of the 50,000 did, they became the Italian service units. So, we had 150 soldiers at the depot. “And as I said, they worked alongside the civilians,” said Dave Sciamanna, Board member of the Historic Letterkenny Chapel. The POW's built the Letterkenny Chapel. According to Pollard, it was built out of sorrow. They didn't know what was happening to their families in the same way that they really wanted to in their hearts. And out of that, they took their well, their desire to do something there, their fear, I think, with feelings of homesickness and sorrow. And they put that into building the Letterkenny Chapel, “said Pollard. The Franklin County Visitors Bureau is showcasing the Letterkenny Italian POW story in the lobby of the 11/30 Visitors Center. The exhibit will be open from Sept 6 and will be available to the public until November 11. Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Franklin County Visitors Bureau will be hosting on Aug. 17 "Frederick Douglass in Chambersburg: More Than A Speech". The presentation will include lunch, a bus tour to showcase Douglass' visit, and the major meeting between Douglass and John Brown. Janet Pollard, Executive Director of the Franklin County Visitors Bureau, says the speech that was made August 17,1859 was really to conceal the true reason he was in Franklin County. "He was getting off of the Cumberland Valley Railroad, one of the trains of the Cumberland Valley Railroad in Chambersburg. And he was supposed to be there secretly, that so that he could meet with John Brown about Brown's planned raid of Harpers Ferry in the arsenal there. But as soon as he got off that that train, the public recognized him, and they queried him about why he was in Chambersburg. And so there had to be some fast thinking. And it was like, I'm here to give a speech. I'm here to give a speech. And at the Franklin Hall. So, that's really he is one of the most photographed men of his day in his lifetime. And just to think about that in 1859, that he would be that recognized is is really an amazing, an amazing place to be in his life considering how his life started. And so that's why we called it Frederick Douglass in Chambersburg more than a speech, because the speech was actually actually a way to conceal the fact that he had a definite purpose to be in Chambersburg." When Douglass made the speech Saturday, Aug. 17, 1859 at Franklin Hall to deliver a speech about the inhumanity of slavery and the emancipation. Just like Douglass, John Brown was an abolitionist. "They may they may have had different perspectives, perspectives on how that abolishing would take place. But they were partners in wanting to move America of 1859 beyond the place it was on with slavery. And, you know, that was John Brown. Many people look at what occurred at in Harpers Ferry as the precursor to the Civil War. It was kind of, a fuze that ignited the reality that we were not going to be able to legislate out of slavery, that we were going to have to more directly confront the issue. And so they both recognized it. I don't know that they necessarily thought the path would be the same." The event will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and including lunch. You can purchase tickets in person at Franklin County 11/30 Visitors Center, 15 S. Main St., Chambersburg. Contact Franklin County Visitors Bureau at 71-552-2977. CLICK HERE to purchase tickets.

The Athens, West Virginia school made history when it became the first public university in West Virginia to create a competitive program for e-sports, an organized form of video gaming that's often played in front of spectators. Since the program began in 2019, the school has fielded National Championship teams nearly every year. The Concord Maroon Team captured the 2024 title in the Eastern College Athletic Conference by taking down Brewton-Parker College. Concord University's E-Sports Team Director Austin Clay, who created the “e-sports management” major, says the major is very fluid and conforms to the interests of the students. “Right now, e-sports is a $2 billion industry and looking to become a $12 billion industry by 2030, so we want to make sure our students coming through Concord, competing in e-sports, can get a job within that industry, as it's a rapid-growing industry within the tax sector,” Clay said.

THE PURIFICATION ritual necessary for building the Third Temple in Jerusalem could be just over a year away. Israel National News reports that a pure red heifer has been brought to the site of ancient Shiloh. Two others, which were delivered to Israel from Texas last September, will join her at the Research and Visitors Center there soon. The heifers are 22 months old. According to rabbinic interpretations of the purification ritual outlined in Numbers 19:1–10, the red heifer sacrificed must be without defect, never yoked, and at least three months old. That means the heifers in Israel could be prepared for sacrifice as early as next winter. Also: The silliness of “egg theory” on “TikToxic”; globalist bankers want “finance shock” to kickstart Great Reset and Central Bank Digital Currency (i.e., financial tyranny); BRICS plans their own gold-backed currency; and the Secret Service claims it just doesn't know who dropped their bag of cocaine in a secure area of the White House (but Soldier of Fortune magazine says they do know but won't way—surprise, surprise). Our Build Barn Better project is making progress! Our 1,200 square pole barn has been cleared of all the junk and extra furniture. Work begins on the floor this week! After that, we'll insulate the building, install an HVAC system, and move our studios and book/DVD warehouse and shipping office out of our home. If you are so led, you can donate by clicking here.

Tribally-run museums offer two important benefits: they offer a Native voice for Native history within a system dominated by traditional European perspectives – and they bring the promise of economic development. Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce takes us on a field trip to celebrate Tribal Museums Day with Shannon O'Loughlin (Choctaw), attorney and the CEO of the Association on American Indian Affairs; Dehrich Chya (Sun'aq Tribe of Kodiak), language and living culture manager for the Alutiiq Museum; Billie Jean Guerrero (Pyramid Lake Paiute and Walker River Paiute), museum director for the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe Museum and Visitors Center; and Sunshine Thomas-Bear (member of Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska), tribal historic preservation officer, NAGPRA representative, and cultural preservation director for the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska and museum director for the Angel de Cora Museum.

In this podcast, we cover what you will find when you arrive in Yellowstone Country. What is open and closed and the most updated park conditions that I have seen so far this year. We cover what trails are open in the Canyon Area and which ones are closed including 2 of the best-the trail to the Brink of the Lower Falls and Red Rock Point and when they should be open. We also cover how the best Visitors Center in the park is getting a quick facelift and when it should be open. We cover how the bears are REALLY moving around and staying down low due to the deepest snow this late in the year I think I have ever seen in my life. We go over when you can dine at the fabulous Lake Hotel and more importantly-when you can't but how to find what may possibly be the best hot dog ever!!When then cover how the Old Faithful Inn is FINALLY open including the hippest bar in the US-The Bear Pit Bar. Finally we cover some big news about who wants to advertise on the Explore Podcasts and then how the Forest Fenn Treasure simply won't die.
