STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking. The end results are students who take thoughtful risks, engage in experiential learning, persist in problem-solving, embrace collaboration, and work through the creative process.

These are the innovators, educators, leaders, and learners of the 21st century!

STEAMFest M-NCPPC’s Department of Parks and Recreation is taking a leading role to bring out the inner STEAM power in Prince George’s County youth by providing engaging and fun programming that builds confidence and a better understanding in the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering,

Arts, and Math.

Across the globe, the United States is behind the curve when it comes to the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math and recent graduates are not entering STEAM-based careers. In order for us to compete at a global level, the U.S. needs to become a leader in STEAM related disciplines. Our goal is to provide the tools to understand how STEAM applies in all facets of life.

CONSERVATION CORNER

ZERO IT OUT! FOR 90 YEARS, M-NCPPC, DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HAS MADE CONSERVATION A TOP PRIORITY. Over the past decade, we have made great progress in reducing our ‘carbon footprint’ and overall impact on climate change. Just a few highlights include installing lighting systems with LED or other energy-efficient fixtures, expanding our fleet of electric and hybrid vehicles, and designing LEED-certified buildings.

Watch “Celebrating 90 Years of Conservation” on YouTube

BUT OUR GOAL IS ALWAYS ZERO. In a first of its kind, the Department of Parks and Recreation will ‘zero out’ its carbon footprint this year at each of our facilities, as well as our automotive fleet – addressing one of the most important issues of our time: climate change. As part of this major campaign, we will also provide innovative tools and information so that our local communities and patrons can join us in this groundbreaking effort. To achieve this goal, we have developed a comprehensive strategy with three implementation pillars. RENEWABLE ENERGY: 100 percent of the Department’s electricity use will come from renewable energy sources including a 7-acre solar farm built on underused land near our maintenance and development facility. These solar panels will generate nearly 1.8 megawatts of electricity and save $60,000 every year over the next 20 years. REFORESTATION: Working with our partners, we will plant nearly 8,000 trees that will capture more than 8,500 tons of carbon over their lifetimes. Deforestation produces 15% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions making forest restoration a critical part of any comprehensive plan. CARBON FARMING: A first on the east coast, the Department will pioneer a new pilot program that will demonstrate how changes in agriculture practices can have a major impact on climate change. Like forests, soil can act as a carbon sink capturing as much as 20% of carbon emissions annually.

4 • M-NCPPC, FALL 2017 GUIDE TO PARKS AND RECREATION

A FIRST STEP IS TO REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT, which will not only help address climate change but will also help you save money. Below are a few easy steps you can do today.

SWITCH IT OFF Turn off the lights when natural light is sufficient and when you leave the room. It’s that simple! CLIMATE CONTROL Keep your temperature system on a moderate setting while you’re in the room.

MINIMIZE PLUG LOAD AND PHANTOM POWER Plug your electronics into a power strip or unplug them when they are not in use. TAKE THE STAIRS Use the stairs as often as possible. Elevators consume electricity, you do not.

AFTER REDUCING YOUR FOOTPRINT, WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL JOIN US IN OUR ‘ZERO IT OUT’ CAMPAIGN AND OFFSET YOUR IMPACT. Coming soon, our website will feature an easy-to-use carbon calculator that will estimate how many tons of carbon you emit each year from your car, your house, and air travel. After just a few clicks, you will learn how many tons of carbon you are responsible for and have the opportunity to “Zero It Out’ by making a small donation. With this support, we will work with our partners to plant the exact number of trees that will offset or ‘Zero Out’ your carbon footprint.

Be Sure to visit pgparks.com for information and updates on when our carbon calculator will go live!

An important part of the Zero It Out! Campaign includes outreach and education to our local communities and patrons – inviting you to join us in this impactful initiative.

LOADED LAUNDRY Only do full loads of laundry and use the bright colors cycle whenever possible. SHORTER SHOWERS Try to take shorter showers. The less hot water you use, the less energy you need. SWITCH TO CFLS Compact fluorescent light bulbs use 75% less energy than incandescent and last 10 times longer.

Our planet needs Heroes of Zero now more than ever. Please join us and make a difference – leaving a land and water legacy for current and future generations.

Resident Registration and Fees The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission policy gives priority to Prince George’s County residents during program and class enrollment; it also increases registration fees by approximately 30 percent for non-residents, or those living outside Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties. This procedure ensures that the citizens who fund these programs through their tax dollars have the first option to enroll. After the priority registration period, registrations are accepted from residents of all jurisdictions. The fee schedule applies to all Commission programs and facilities in Prince George’s County, with a few exceptions such as performance tickets and historic site admission fees. *NOTE: Full payment is due at registration unless a class or program has a scheduled payment structure i.e. Kids’ Care, Trips & Excursions. Need help? E-mail the Park and Planning Help Desk at help4smartlink@pgparks.com.

All withdrawals must be processed by the facility offering the program. If the registrant chooses to request a refund of the credited amount, a 20% Refund Administration Fee will be imposed, reducing the amount to be refunded. No requests for refunds will be accepted after a course is completed. No cash refunds will be allowed. Refunds for credit card purchases will be issued as a credit to the credit card account unless a six month window has passed and the card number is no longer available due to credit card compliance standards (in which case a check will be issued to the account main contact). Refunds for credit card payments made after 6/1/17 may be processed via check due to a change in the registration software system taking place in Fall 2017. Check refunds may take 3–4 weeks to process. No refund or credit will be issued for classes missed by the participant. Some activities have different refund/withdrawal policies that supersede this standard policy, as identified in the course description or details.

Highlights key changes such as updated names and modern standards for the County’s zones, zone district consolidations, new commercial and mixed-use zones, and new use tables that will control what you can do on your property.

Addresses important parts of the County’s built environment, such as neighborhood compatibility standards that will protect existing communities; landscaping; open space; connectivity; parking; signage; and lighting standards.

It also addresses adequacy of County public facilities such as roadways, schools, and parks and recreation facilities, and strengthens collaboration with other agencies to ensure high-quality, pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly street designs in our communities.

This fall you will have an opportunity to preview and comment on the Comprehensive Review Draft. This document includes simplified procedures and incorporates input and revisions from residents, stakeholders, and elected and appointed officials on ways to make the laws easier to understand, more user-friendly, and supportive of the type of quality development that encourages economic growth for the County.
