CAPRILES EN CARACAS UN LLENO TOTAL

(Caracas, 7 de abril -Noticias24).- Las calles de la capital de la república se encuentran colmadas de miles de personas que salieron a apoyar la candidatura de Henrique Capriles a la presidencia.

Mientras que desde laavenida O’Higgins se concentran las comunidades del oeste de Caracas. Allí cada vez más llegan vecinos de La Vega, El Paraiso, La Paz, El Junquito, Montalban, entre otros.

En Plaza Venezuela y en Chacaíto el panorama no es diferente. Miles de personas marchan hasta la avenida Bolívar que ya luce abarrotada.

Bautizada como “Caracas heroica” y última marcha en la capital antes de la votación, la manifestación opositora marca un punto de inflexión en la corta campaña electoral, de diez días de duración, en la que Capriles ha realizado un trepidante recorrido por todo el país, con actos diarios en hasta tres estados.

De la mano de su mujer y sus hijas, en la céntrica avenida Bolívar, William Pereira, un joven caraqueño que trabaja en el sector de la construcción, expresa a la AFP con emoción su apoyo a Capriles, que según él “consiguió unir a la oposición” después de muchos años sin figuras principales.

TALLAHASSEE – The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Florida Park Service is pleased to recognize winners of the 2013 Friends of Florida State Parks Volunteer Awards.

The Florida Park Service hosts annual volunteer appreciation picnics in each of the five state park regions to recognize the invaluable contribution of the members of the Florida State Parks volunteer corps, which includes more than 7,766 regular service volunteers. Regular service volunteers are those who regularly commit to working in state parks, from staffing a ranger station, driving a tour boat or supporting land management activities. Last year, volunteers contributed nearly 1.4 million hours to the state park system.

April is National Volunteer Month and celebrates and promotes the spirit of volunteerism throughout the country and raises awareness about how volunteering changes lives and strengthens communities. Volunteerism is personally and professionally rewarding, and offers benefits such as enhanced self-esteem and confidence, new friends and associates, new skills and abilities and enhanced employability.

“Florida’s state parks and trails are fortunate to have the most passionate and dedicated volunteers,” said DEP’s Florida Park Service Director Donald Forgione. “We thank our volunteers for their time and expertise in helping us manage, protect and interpret Florida’s natural and cultural resources.”

Celebrate Spring at a State Park Get outdoors and enjoy nature during the spring season. Donald V. Forgione, Director, Florida Park Service It’s springtime in Florida State Parks! Let’s take our cues from nature, get outdoors and enjoy this time of renewal and rejuvenation. The Florida Park Service recently launched a PocketRanger® mobile app for iPhones and Androids. This interactive, on-the-go guide allows visitors to plan their next adventure in state parks. It features photos, maps, park information, activity and location search tools and more. Spring is the perfect time to use the app to find and visit your new favorite state park. Spring also signals a time for us to begin spring cleaning. State parks do their “Spring Cleaning” in the form of prescribed burning. This resource management activity mimics natural fires that keep our environment healthy. Prescribed fires, carefully set by trained land managers, prevent wildfires and help our woodland plant and animal habitats by re-creating necessary and natural fire patterns. Visit state parks this spring to see thousands of native flowers and wildlife in their natural habitats. When visiting state parks this spring, keep your eyes open for baby critters such as turtles and chicks of all species. It’s nesting season in our coastal parks. Visitors can see more than 200 species of birds and their chicks at Honeymoon Island, Caladesi Island and Anclote Key Preserve state parks in Pinellas County. Enjoy spring weather and gorgeous coastal views at the new restaurant at Sebastian Inlet State Park in Melbourne Beach. Look out for wildlife from the decks of the Inlet Grill and Gifts. Visitors have a chance to view more than 180 species of birds during the course of a year at this park. Citizens and visitors can find many great escapes in Florida’s state parks. With more than 100 miles of sandy beaches, our 41 beach parks offer recreational activities for everyone to enjoy. For a different way to experience Florida’s beautiful beaches, try horseback riding on the beach at Amelia Island State Park in Jacksonville. Visit Florida's southernmost state park, Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park in Key West, for many recreation opportunities and to learn about U.S. military history. White sand beaches and rolling dunes covered with sea oats make Perdido Key State Park in Pensacola a favorite destination for swimmers and sunbathers. On April 22, join our 171 state parks and trails as we celebrate Earth Day. From beaches to forests, springs to swamps, the state park system’s nearly 800,000 acres of preserved Florida is something everyone should experience. Many state parks also welcome the spring season with festivals and events that are always fun for the whole family. Check out our app or FloridaStateParks.org for details. No matter what you like to do, Florida’s state parks have something for everyone. On behalf of the entire Florida Park Service, I invite all Floridians to go outside, have fun and learn about our precious environment this spring. Sincerely, Donald V. Forgione Director, Florida Park Service Florida Department of Environmental Protection
