GEOCOMMUNITY USEFUL SITE OF THE DAY
[useful.gif] Swiftsure Yacht Race - Rugged, exacting,
colourful and international in competition. Or a boring
"Driftsure", sometimes accompanied by fog and drizzle. Every
year, the Swiftsure International Yacht Race is a major
community event - the premiere long distance sailing race in
the B.C. and US Pacific Northwest area and a festival on
shore. It is a race in which cruising yachts capable of
adventure in exposed waters are encouraged to compete and
crews to test their skills. This is always one of my favorite
events of the year and if you can get to Vancouver Island,
Canada this is THE week-end to do it!

SUGGESTED READING
[1931057001.jpg] Seeing Through Maps: The Power of Images to
Shape Our World View - Maps become a means of seeing the
world from many perspectives in this appealing guide, which
is aimed at training readers to look at images with a
critical eye. The authors (a social scientist and a
pastor/community organizer) challenge readers to stretch
their intellectual boundaries while they wrap their minds
around demonstrations of the many ways of making maps and the
truth that no way is "the right one." A final chapter
provides a guide to using map projections in human resource
development and adult education. (Description from Amazon)
