The National Park Foundation is accepting grant proposals for its 2013 Active Trails Grants Program. Cape Hatteras National Seashore is proposing a project called "Reconnection Through Education" that includes free hiking trips and overnight research expeditions focused on endangered species. The goal is to educate the local community about these species, ease tensions with the National Park Service, and shift revenue from off-road vehicle permits to the new trail activities. If funded, the grant would support capital needs for starting the educational programs and motivating the public to explore the parks through healthy, nature-based activities while strengthening community partnerships.

Readand answereachquestionbelow.
1. NPS Staff Lead(s) (max. 150 words)
Park has designatedleadstaff person(s)whohas/have experience workingcollaboratively
withpartnerorganizations,trail-relatedactivities andoutdoorrecreation.
I, Devon Rhodes,have beenchosento head this projectfrom beginin to end.
My experience isunmatched in the Eastern Coast National Park Service area whenit
comes to collaboratingwith local businessesandagenciesto advance the NPS’s
relationshipwiththe community.I have coordinated programs with various charter-
fishingboats to generate educational programs for youth in the area to learn about
the differentkindsofmarine wildlife thatlive offour coast. I am a seasonedveteran
of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore,knowing nearlyeverysquare inch of the sand
coveredarea. I have lead over-night,weekend,andweeklongcampingtrips all over
the island.These are coupledwith courses I have leadon beach drivingas well as day
hikesto explore the vegetationand wildlife.
2. Project Title (max. 100 words)
Projecttitle shouldbe concise andcapture the essence of the project.
Project: ReconnectionThrough Education
3. Project Abstract (max. 200 words)
One or two paragraphs that concisely summarizethe project.
The National Park Service on the OuterBanks of North Carolina isfacing tough
times.Through recent legislationregardingcertainendangeredspeciesonthe island
much of the park has beenclosedto driving.Due to tighteningbudgetswe have
implementedmandatorypermitsfor anyone to drive on the publiclands. The permits
cost $50 for 7 days and $120 for a yearlongpermit. Since this has beenhistorically
free,the local populationis in majority against it and relationswith the various towns
have taken a free-fall.
The project will hope to ease tensionsand recreate a positive persona for the
National Park Service and the employeesonthe island. We hope to implementnew
walking trail expeditionsand researchorientedcamping tours that focuson the
endangeredspecies.Ourgoal is to findways to educate the local and visiting
populationabout these creatures and their important part in our ecosystem.We want
to be able to shiftour revenue source from the Off Road Vehicle (ORV) permitsto
these newtrail activities.This grant wouldmeet the capital possible for starting these
programs.
4. Project Description(max.500 words)
Describe the project.Tell uswhatitis andwhy youfeel itisa goodfit forthe Active Trails
Grants Program.
The ReconnectionThrough Education project will include two newprograms
to be offered.The first will be hiking trips dedicatedto furtherunderstandingthe bird
and wildlife populationonthe islandincludingthe PipingPlover,SeabeachAmaranth,
and three differentspeciesofSeaTurtle. The Park Service will provide free shuttle to
the areas marked out for these endangeredspeciesandwill then leadthe groups
through the area educating on the animals, theirenvironment,and theirimportance.
This will be free to localsand cost $5 for non-residents.Thisisabsolutelycrucial to the
plan as these speciesare a topic of debate within the community. There must be a full

9. 9
understandingof the situation and all the variablesat play for an educatedargument
on both sides.
The secondstep of ReconnectionThrough Education will be research
expeditionsofferedtoall North Carolina State and Communitycolleges.Classesthat
wish to take an over night journeyto into the marked offareas will be allowedto do
so for $25 per head.Shuttle to the site,camping sitesand equipmentwill be provided
to the students.This will serve as a way to slowlyallocate our revenue streamfrom
ORV traffic and to these offeredexpeditions.
This project isa perfectfit for the Active Trails Grants Program. The offered
trail hikesand camps will motivate the community to get out and into our parks by
highlightinga specific,presentissue.Active partnershipswithlocal business
(identifiedlater) will opennon-aggressive dialogwiththe communityas well as
strengthenconnectionsby showingthe Park Service isnot without ears or sensitivity
to the local population.It will sustain the objectivesofthe grant past its expiration
date by loweringcosts of ORV vehicle permits,ifnot eliminating,whichwill again
strengthenbonds withthe community and increase use of the designatedrecreation
area. We will see long-termimpact of future generationssupportingthe park, if
childrenof today are knowledgeable ofthe facts and also hear from theirparents that
the National Park Service is not an aloof organization,ignorant of local customs,
traditions,and beliefs.
5. Project Outcomes(max. 500 words)
Explainhowyourprojectplanwill meetandexceedeachof the seven required Visitorand
Park Outcomes. Pleaseaddresseach one explicitly.
VisitorOutcomes
1. First-time visitorswill engageinhealthyactivitiesusingNational Parks.
First time visitors involvedinthe daytime walkingtrail tour will
become involvedinan educatingexperience thatnot only benefitsthe park
but also extendsknowledge ofendangeredspeciesandtheirstruggles.The
tour will be partially by foot, encouragingoutdoor action and exploration.
Those who visitthe park through a college classcamping trip will be engaged
in extensive walkingandexploringof the island as well as camping activities
includingcookingtheir own mealsand learninghow to live withoutthe extra
amenitiesofour lives.
2. Visitorswill returntothe National Parksforhealthyactivities.
Once visitorsare exposedto the beauty and life ofour park they will
be enticedto make a return trips for longerperiodsof time in the future.
Whentheyare informedthese projectsare in place to alleviate the pricesof
ORV permitsthey will again be drawn back to do their own exploring,anda
societythat searchesfor answers is a societythat prospers.
3. Visitorswill have anincreasedawarenessof national parktrails.
Those exposedtothe educational trails will have a much greater
knowledge ofthe park and its ecosystem.Aswell as increasingawarenessof
the vast openrecreational areas it will also enlightenthemon the reasons
why some places are off-limits.Thisprogram will serve to increase awareness
and understandingof what the park has to offer for all.

10. 10
4. Visitorswill be more aware of the connectionbetween outdooractivitiesand
humanhealth.
The physical aspects of these tours will encourage visitors to use their
mindsand theirbodiesto explore,move,and live a healthylifestyle.
Awarenessof the physical healthaspects will be pointedout by connecting
the life ofthe animalsbeingstudiedthe life supportedof all around them.
Park Outcomes
1. Trail/areause and/orvisitorcountswill increase.
Withan impendingnearboycott situation occurring with the local
populationand severe reputationdamage caused to the park, this program
will serve to increase number of usersgreatly. Beyond the local populationit
will increase number ofvisitors by providingthe educational tour to see
wildlife thatis native only to the islands.
2. Developmentof anew or enhancementof anexistingrelationshipbetweena
national parkand at leastone communitypartner.
Newpartnerships will be created with as many of the local businessas
possible.One proposedpartnershipwould be with Island Rentalswho rent
beach worthy vehiclesto anyone wishingto explore the expansive Park. They
will be specificallyimpactedbythe ORV permitsand will make for a great
publicrelationsrelationship;
3. Trail access, facilitiesandserviceswillbe improvedorenhanced,thereby
enablingmore use and/ormore diverse use of the park/trails.
Trail access, concerningthe ORV permit rates, is the key issue that will
be improvedby thisgrant. It will allow more people touse our public
recreationlands to a further extent.
6. Project Timeline (max.200 words)
What are the majormilestones? Please estimate specificdates. Provideaspecifictime at
whichyouexpecttobe at the mid-pointof yourworkandwhenyouexpecttohave all your

- Island Rentals– Salvo, NC
- Oregon InletFishingCenter– Nags Head, NC
- OBPA (Outer Banks PreservationAssociation) – Buxton, NC
- College ofthe Albemarle – Manteo,NC
- Beaufort CommunityCollege – Washington,NC
- UNCWilmington– Wilmington,NC
- NC State University– Raleigh,NC
Each businesschosento become a partner holdssignificance inthe projectand it’s
objectives.IslandRentals,a small businessin the town of Salvo outfittingany visitor
with a beach ready vehicle.Theirbusinesswill be directlyaffectedby the new
restrictionson driving on the beach. Their partnershipwill show trust from the
community and that we will do our bestto make this project work in theirfavor.
Oregon InletFishingCentersitsdirectlyacross from a very popular beach entry and is
one of the most visitedplaceson the Outer Banks. Their partnershipwill be crucial in
spreadingthe word about our newprogram and gathering support. The OBPA will be
the most difficulttoattain. Formedalmost entirelyinspite of the NPS and their
regulationson beach driving,they are a local area non-profitthat fightsfor open
recreational use ofthe entire parkland. Attaining them,as a partner would not only be
incredible forthe parks tattered image but also would increase support and
recognitionby great margins. College ofthe Albemarle,BeaufortCommunityCollege,
UNCWilmington,andNC State Universitywill be partners during the school year as a
part of the research camping tours that extends into the park. Theirinvolvementwill
be crucial in makingthis project successful

10. Your Target Audience
Describe yourtargetaudience andwhyyoufeel theyare importantforthisproject.If you
have a sense of howmany youthandadults will be engagedwithyourproject,please
include.
The target audience of the educational hiking trail will be children10-17 but will be
capable of entertainingthose youngerand older. Our hope is to engage the local high

12. 12
school withavailable group tours for classes.Actual numbers will be variable and difficult
to judge prior to holdingthese tours. College studentsare the intendedtargetaudience
for the researchcamping trips run through the colleges.
11. Are there any “leveraging” opportunities?
How will thisprojectleverage funds,in-kinddonations, outreach,expertise,research,
partnerships,etc.?
Full fundingwill come from this Grant,an existingfundfor projects,and in-kind
donations.In-kinddonations may come from those businessesthat partner with us, but
donations from the publicand such will be very hard to come by because of icy relations.
The parks officersthat already work here will handle expertise and outreach can be
handledby the NPS and its partneringorganizations. This grant is absolutelycritical for
starting and implantingthe proposedproject.
12. Other
What else doyouwishto tell usaboutyour project,if anything?
Please give this projectyour full attention and consideration,as it will be not only
about relationshipsthat we have here with our communitybut also the entire NPS
organization and how it is viewed.
13. Will yourun the program if you do not get thisgrant? Please explain.
This project will not be possible withoutthis grant. If it isnot awarded to us thenwe may
be able to run it inthe future,but worseningrelationsmay renderthe projectuselessinthe
future.
