Wednesday, September 7, 2016 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Kids can get free park passes Volleyball starts season with wins With the start of the new school year, it’s time for all fourth-graders and their fam- ilies to claim their free Every Kid in a Park pass which allows free entry into all fed- eral parks, forests, and recre- ation areas for a full year. Fourth-graders can print out a paper voucher for free entry into all federal lands by visiting the Every Kid in a Park website at www.every kidinapark.gov. Students and their families can also redeem their paper voucher for a plastic pass at any Forest Service office. The voucher and passes are valid for the entire school year, September 1, 2016-August 31, 2017. This pass not only enti- tles a fourth-grader and his/ her family to free entrance to all National Parks for the year, but also to all day- use sites on the Deschutes National Forest includ- ing the Newberry National Volcanic Monument. In addi- tion, the pass can be used to redeem one free Christmas tree permit at Deschutes National Forest district offices in Bend, Sisters, and Crescent. Teachers or adults who engage fourth-graders Sisters volleyball team played in a dual match held at Madras on Tuesday, August 30, and walked away with wins against both Madras and Burns. The Outlaws defeated Burns 25-15, 25-18, 25-18 and then took down the White Buffs with scores of 25-13, 25-18, and 25-13. Although the Outlaws notched wins, Coach Rod Jones really wasn’t pleased with their effort and performance. through a youth-serving organization can print paper passes, and find activi- ties and lesson plans, at www.everykidinapark.gov/ get-your-pass/educator. Today, more than 80 percent of American fami- lies live in urban areas, and many lack easy access to safe outdoor spaces. At the same time, kids are spend- ing more hours than ever in front of screens instead of outside. The Every Kid in a Park initiative encourages valuable opportunities to explore, learn, and play in the spectacular places that belong to us all and aims to inspire future generations to serve as stewards of these places. Research shows that chil- dren ages 9-11 are at a unique developmental stage in their learning where they begin to understand how the world around them works in more concrete ways. By targeting fourth-graders, the program works to ensure every child in the U.S. has the opportu- nity to visit and enjoy their public lands by the time he or she is 11 years old.
