FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Jan. 28, 2013 CONTACT: DEP Press Office, 850.245.2112, DEPNews@dep.state.fl.us FLORIDA PARK SERVICE RECOGNIZES PRESCRIBED FIRE AWARENESS WEEK ~Controlled burning is an important tool for natural resource management~ State Park staff conducts a prescribed burn at Rock Springs Run State Reserve in Sorrento. TALLAHASSEE –The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Florida Park Service is observing Prescribed Fire Awareness Week from Jan. 27 to Feb. 2. Prescribed fires mimic naturally occurring fires and can help prevent devastating wildfires. Park staff, guided by detailed plans called prescriptions, conduct prescribed burns as a regular and important part of their land management activities in state parks and trails. Prescribed fire is a safe way to apply a natural process, ensure ecosystem health and reduce wildfire risk. Many state parks and trails will be conducting prescribed burns in the coming months. “Prescribed fire is a safe way to reduce hazardous fuels on Florida’s forest lands and prevent devastating wildfires,” said Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Commissioner Adam Putnam. “With help from our partners, including the Florida Park Service, Florida is the nation’s leader in prescribed fires, burning more than 2.3 million acres of agricultural and natural lands annually.” Florida habitats evolved under the influence of fire over thousands of years. Before there were roads, canals or big cities, lightning-set fires swept across Florida’s landscape. Native Americans also set fires to improve the land for hunting and gathering food. “As a state-certified burn manager, I know that good fires prevent bad ones,” said DEP’s Florida Park Service Director Donald Forgione.“We are proud to partner with the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services’ Florida Forest Service as well as other public and private organizations in conducting prescribed fires that protect and rejuvenate our natural resources while also protecting our communities from wildfire.” Fire plays a critical role in sustaining many of the earth’s ecosystems. Many of Florida’s ecosystems are fire-adapted systems that require frequent prescribed fire to maintain these natural areas in good health. Prescribed fire also protects state park neighbors from the threat of uncontrolled wildfires by reducing potential fuel for wildfires. Prescribed burning mimics natural fire cycles to restore natural communities, reduces undergrowth that accumulates over time and decreases the potential for wildfire. Burned lands experience an increase in native wildflowers, birds and other wildlife. Prescribed fires are only conducted by highly trained and professional staff and only when weather conditions are suitable. To learn more about the role of prescribed fire, visit www.goodfires.org.

Hermandad Venezolana en Weston con agenda lista para este 2013

Analuisa Cedeño – cedenoanaluisa@gmail.com

Como es costumbre el día de ayer en la ciudad de Weston se reunieron los miembros de la Hermandad Venezolana, con el propósito de afinar los detalles de la agenda que se tiene preparada para este 2013.

El trabajo que viene realizando la Hermandad es un esfuerzo mancomunado de todos sus miembros, a fin de consolidar un espacio de encuentro, donde los venezolanos hagan  activas sus ideas  dentro de nuestra comunidad.

Desde mediados del año pasado “hemos estado trabajando para dar una ayuda a todos los que la necesitan. Tal es el caso de la participación y asistencia que brindamos en New Orleans,  durante el desarrollo de las elecciones (2012). Esta fue una experiencia muy bonita, porque gracias a la organización y donaciones que recibimos, pudimos brindar una mano a todos los que hicieron el esfuerzo de viajar hasta allá. Así lo señaló Sandra Sánchez, miembro activa dentro de la Hermanad.

Igualmente Sánchez destacó que desde esa fecha “seguimos luchando en organizar y formalizar nuestras actividades. El 6 de enero de este año, arrancamos las actividades con una misa de Reyes en la iglesia St. Katharine Drexel. Tenemos un proyecto que ya está casi listo para rendirle un homenaje al alcalde de Doral Luigi Boria. El primer Alcalde venezolano en el estado de Florida, cosa que nos llena de orgullo”.

Pero sin duda Sandra deja claro que la Hermandad esta arrancando este año con buenas expectativas. Parte de las metas es la integración de la comunidad, “queremos seguir sumando esfuerzos”. Asimismo, se tiene previsto la celebración de las fiestas patrias, “es una forma de rendir homenaje a nuestras tradiciones venezolanas. La nueva generación que hoy crece dentro de los Estados Unidos debe conocerla, saber de dónde venimos. Fomentar nuestra cultura es nuestro objetivo”. Afirmó

La Hermandad Venezolana informó que en los actuales momentos está creando su página Web donde se podrá conocer los detalles acerca de la misión y visión, como obtener una membresía familiar e ir otorgando beneficios a todos sus integrantes. De igual forma está en proyecto la conformación de la comisión de Cultura, deporte, salud, eventos, entre otros.

Sandra Sánchez aprovecho la oportunidad para invitar a toda la comunidad venezolana a seguir incorporándose dentro de las actividades durante este nuevo año e hizo un llamado a quienes quieran participar de donaciones, entre ellas un espacio donde se pueda erigir una nueva sede.
