Glen Echo Park is a park, arts and cultural center in Glen Echo Maryland. The park started out in 1891 as the cultural center of a suburban community planned by Edwin and Edward Baltzley, a National Chautauqua with a six-thousand-seat amphitheater that taught subjects ranging from Greek, and Hebrew to physical training regimens and university extension courses. The Chautauqua proved popular with hundreds visiting, and Clara Barton, was persuaded by the Baltzleys to move her home and the American Red Cross headquarters at Glen Echo, as well as preside over Women's Executive Committee for the Chautauqua itself. Unfortunately, the entire venture soon fell apart, due to poor investments by the Baltzleys elsewhere as well as rumors of malaria hitting the Glen Echo site.
A few years later, Glen Echo park reopened as an amusement park, popular with locals of the Washington DC area. However it began to decline in the 1950s with the advent of larger theme parks. Decline accelerated when the trolley line stopped running over from Washington DC. The amusement park finally closed in 1968. For most of its life, Glen Echo Park, like most facilities in the DC area restricted the park to whites. On June 30, 1960, several African-American students, primarily from Howard University, staged a sit-in to protest the segregation. Five students were arrested for trespassing. The case ended up in the Supreme Court, where in Griffin v. Maryland (1964), the Court ruled that state had unconstitutionally used its police power (in the form of a deputy officer employed by the amusement park) to help a private business enforce its racial discrimination policy. After a year of protest, Glen Echo Park management gave in and desegregated the park in 1965.
Since 1971 the park has been run by the National Park Service and managed by the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture, who hold a variety of social events and Resident arts programs.

Well done to both

Noticed some new art above the runners mural overlooking Echo Park Lake...though since I mostly look at the ground when walking around the lake (afraid my healing-foot will take a misstep), perhaps it's been there for awhile. Either way, it's new to me.
The back of that framed picture reads, "Dedicated to my parents..." Here's the back: www.flickr.com/photos/victoriabernal/10911763706/in/photo.... Love such earnest expressions made public.

This photograph depicts visitors on the veranda of Echo Mountain House looking at the other sites in the complex that became known as the "White City" or the "City on the Mount." Completed in 1894, this edifice burned to the ground in 1900. Additional fires, floods, and other natural disasters bedeviled the Mt. Lowe Line, bankrupting Professor Lowe iand causing the demise of his railway in 1938.
This is an arena and Convention Centre in Liverpool which cost £164 million to build.
"The Echo Arena opened in January 2008 with the launch event for Liverpool's European Capital of Culture and has since played host to a string of international events, including the MTV Europe Music Awards, BBC Sports Personality of the Year, Cirque du Soleil and Davis Cup tennis, plus concert performances from Elton John, Bob Dylan and Beyoncé.
The Echo Arena contains a raft of facilities for visitors, including 22 hospitality boxes, food and drink concessions, a 1600 space car park, bike racks and a drop-off point and is fully accessible for all of our guests. Backstage we have two star dressing rooms, six dressing rooms, a green room, a warm up area with lockers for visiting sports teams and private office space for promoters and producers during their time in Liverpool. Using the Echo Arena in tandem with the BT Convention Centre means there's plenty of space for corporate hospitality and VIP entertainment areas too.
The arena can also be used in conjunction with the BT Convention Centre for exhibition and event space. With a floor space of 3,400 m2 in the arena, the combined venue offers 7,000 m2 while the Echo Arena's mother and daughter grids allow the flexibility of moving the position of the stage and lighting."
Echo Lakes is two lakes, connected by a navigable channel. Taken from the trail into the Desolation Wilderness Area in the High Sierras,
looking down on the Upper Lake (foreground) and Lower Lake behind it. Valley below the lakes is the Lake Tahoe Basin
The Echo Bay community is across the Queen Charlotte Strait from Malcolm Island on the "Mainland". It is only accessible by boat or air. The residents are our neighbours and friends who must travel by boat or hike through trails to visit other residents. It is a beautiful setting and is very popular with visiting boaters in the summer.
One of the very popular activities takes place throughout the the summer months at the resort. Pierre's Pig Roast and various theme dinners bring large crowds out on Saturday nights. To take part in this convivial event reservations are a must. Contact the owners at Pierre's at Echo Bay: Pierre & Tove and Jerome & Lucy at info@pierresbay.com. More treats while visiting Echo Bay are visits to Billy's museum around the corner from the resort. Accessible by trail or boat, this is a must see. Bill Proctor has lived, fished, logged and scavenged this area his entire life. His collection of artifacts from bygone industries and First Nations habitation is amazing as is his storytelling. Try contacting Yvonne Maximchuk and her partner Albert for an inspiring tour of their idyllic studio/home/Art Retreat. www.searosestudio.net
Nearby, other tiny communities, made up of float houses offer more things to discover.
This is my entry for "Big typography style poster contest" on InkBlog. The idea is to design a big typography style poster using the following quote : "What we do in life, echoes in eternity".
Some of my notes from the Echo '09 Church Media Conference in Dallas July 29–31.
I always try to do a "debrief" after a conference to capture the main ideas I heard and anything I disagreed with (both of which are valuable for me in terms of learning.)
And yes, that should be either "Effectiveness > Excellence" or "Effective > Excellent", but alas, there is no ⌘Z with ink sketching.)

Situated on the south side of Wearmouth Bridge, the Echo 24 building was originally destined to become an iconic landmark for Wearside. Sadly, the property market took a nosedive just after completion and it is believed that many of the apartments are now occupied by students.
