Great park with grassy pull-through sites and easy access to the park . Location is perfect for the area half way between the Mt. Rushmore area and the Sturgis Deadwood area. Owners are super nice and helpful. Setting is in a meadow with pine hills all around. Park is quiet with good security lighting at night. Would defiantly stay here again when in the area. - gadawg

I cannot say enough about this park. The only reason it is not a 10 is that there is no pool and the internet access was very slow. It is basically a large, flat prairie, so you have level grass sites. Huge pull through sites. It is 30 amp service but never had to worry about using our air conditioner. You are up at the top of a hill so there is always a cool breeze. The owners were really, really helpful. Our truck needed some extensive repairs, so we ended up having to extend and extend our stay. They were willing to work with us and even offered to drive us in town to pick up our rental care. Even though we did not need the shuttle, we appreciated the offer. If we come back this way again, we will definitely return here. - travelinggramma63

This park is in a beautiful setting in a pine-forested valley. New owners are enthusiastic, helpful and friendly. Sites are mostly pull-through and rather narrow, but the owners were leaving every other space vacant when we were there. WiFi is slow. Verizon voice signal is strong, but data signal is marginal. - wordsmith

The staff was very friendly. They seemed glad to have RVers stay the night. There is plenty of room in the back of the level parking lot. There was no cut grass anywhere which would make it difficult for those with dogs. There is no charge, but the website required at least $1. Be sure to shop at Cabela's to show your appreciation. - Debnroux

We stayed here overnight in a 40' motorhome. The Cabela's store is right off of I-90 in Rapid City. They have a huge parking area for RVs and campers who want to stay overnight for FREE. It is no-hookup dry camping, however, they have on-site potable water spigot as well as a free RV dump at the back of the parking lot. The area is lighted very well at night. We felt very safe. You can run a generator if you have it in your camper, but, observe good noise limits with your fellow camping neighbors if there are any. We would definitely stay here again. - Tiffinatic

The RV sites are located at the corner of E. Centre St and Cambell St. The entrance is on E. Centre. There is no staff at the RV park. Pull in to any site, disconnect your toad, drive south on the interior dirt road with your toad, make a right turn and look soon for the office at 800 San Francisco Street. Go in, pay $30., get a tag telling the date you will be leaving. They will send a person to unlock your electric post. Same price, 30 or 50 amp. The person they send will know which sites are 30 and which are 50 amp. Important: call first to be sure a site is available. While only 5 sites were occupied when we stayed, if an event is scheduled, like a fair, then it is unlikely a site will be available. Office open M-F, 8 AM to 5 PM. GPS: since the RV park has no address, you can use 600 Cambell St., the address of a local business across the street. Once there, the park will be obvious. Use Exit 60 from I-90 and drive south looking for signs "Central States Fair Grounds. Very good overnight stop. No shade. Level. - michcamper38

We stayed overnight here to be close to a service location the next morning. It serves the purpose of an overnight stay; long pull-thrus, gravel sites, good power and water. Small trees, dead grass, a bit of road noise, and on the night we were there, lots of empty sites. Check-in is by phone and they'll send someone out to unlock the power box and collect the fee. Surprisingly, the rates do not change during the Sturgis Rally, although even then there were few people using the park. Convenient to the Freightliner dealer and Rapid City, otherwise there are much better places for just a few dollars more. - Meanderman
Aug 2010 - $30.00
Used this campground because it was only $30 compared to most I called around here which was $60 and up. Some of the sites were on concrete but I chose a gravel site as it was closer to the showers. Was a good place for seeing the sights of Mt. Rushmore etc. The price is the only thing this campground has going for it. - trailmaster

Friendly campground. The staff works hard to keep things working smooth. We stayed during the July 4th holiday and the campground got rather full. There are 202 sites but this campground really squeezes 'em in. My slideout was about 5 feet from my neighbor's slideout. After setting up, I had to park my truck on a diagonal to make it fit. The property shares space with a motel (same owners). We didn't use the pool, but it was very clean. The laundry rooms were clean, as were the rest rooms. The cable TV is $3 extra per day. As soon as I hooked up, I saw that most channels had "snowy" pictures. For the next 24 hours I worked with the staff to resolve it, but finally asked for a refund, which was happily given. Internet service was usual for a campground setting. Great in the early morning or late at night but hard to get at other times. On the entrance side of my trailer there was a muddy puddle in the grass, which seems to be a water line leak under the soil. After I reported this, the staff filled it with stone so that I would not step in the mud, but it was still a patch of wet stone for the entire visit. This, to me is very bothersome. Such things as that need to be repaired. I'm hoping that it was a fresh water line and not sewage. Since there are so many campgrounds in the area, we would not stay here again. - CapeGreen

Second stay here (2009, 2014). Older park but well maintained. Good location just out of the city. Many sites share their outside areas. A little tight to get into some sites but workers do assist to get you parked. Many attractions are close by: Bear Country, Reptile attraction and a chuckwagon dinner. Mount Rushmore is about 22 miles away. Friendly owners and workers. All very helpful. - teebee1
Jul 2014 - $42.00
This is our second stay. Tight turns. Not a fan of shared patio nor shared fire rings in very close proximity to the rig. Sites too close together. Great location and other amenities great. No view. Noisy early in the mornings. Maybe they need an area for those who don't care to be in close proximity to small children and campfires. Would not stay again. - mskayndan

This is a member park, but we were able to stay as guests at the very reasonable rate of $34/nt. Sites were spacious with a green belt behind, so you didn't feel too crowded. The park was perfectly situated to all of the amazing things to do in the area, yet off the main highway in a very peaceful and picturesque valley. There is a nice walking/biking path accessible from the park entrance. WiFi was a bit spotty from our site (#57), but walking up to the main lodge area and sitting in the rec area or outside, it worked very well. Satellite was not an issue and they let you wash your vehicles at your site. We opted for the mobile wash company, Pro Wash, who did a great job. This time of year was considered the off season, so the pool/hot tub area was closed which I understand, but was too bad because the temps were in the 80's and it would have been nice to use. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the park felt very secure. There is a "no pet" section, so those of us without pets can enjoy sitting outside without barking. We would highly recommend this park. Not sure what their policy is for guests in high season though. - tmiller505

Rarely give a ten but this park definitely deserves it. It is well maintained, grass is mowed and trimmed, sites are level and spacious. Staff is very professional and friendly. The laundry was clean and all machines in working order. Had lunch in the restaurant. Prices were fair, food was good but two of the staff had multi-colored hair, in blue, yellow, green and red tints. Rather off putting especially for this facility. But that was the only thing that was the least bit negative. We will definitely return here again. Rate reflects our RPI rate. - User2209

Beautiful well maintained and landscaped resort. The activities available are carried and abundant. It is quite with superb security. We felt very safe and secure in leaving our rig to shop and explore. The office staff went our of their was to welcome us and provide suggestions for the activities off the resort that we were interested in perusing. The rate reflects our RPI membership rate. It is definitely worth a much higher rate if you do not have a special membership rate. We are looking forward to returning next time we are in Rapid City. - Team 2Bs

The RV sites for big rigs were extremely close with no grass. The roadwork taking place made getting to the park dangerous. The park was very well kept up, clean, great grassy areas by the cabins. The cabins also had covered parking areas by most of them. The staff were excellent, very friendly & helpful. - Lisanator

This park is a convenient base from which to visit Rapid City and sights in the area, including Mount Rushmore and Wind Cave National Parks. The campground is part of a larger facility that includes a number of cabins. The staff is friendly and helpful. The lake is easy to walk down to and there is a large, open, grassy area that is perfect for exercising a dog. The sites are level and decent-sized but kind of close together. We found the park to be noisy. - Thriller

We stayed two nights at this campground and found the experience to be highly satisfactory, despite the fact that it was cold, windy and rainy in Rapid City for most of our stay. The park itself is small and a wee bit on the "rustic" side, but generally well-maintained, and the manager was a very congenial and accommodating guy. Given that we were travelling with a large pit bull, we were glad to find a nice little park across the street from the campground where we could walk her. In fact, due to the weather, we had the park to ourselves most of the time, which afforded us the opportunity to walk our dog off-leash once or twice. Also, the park backs up to a wooded hillside that is inhabited by mule deer. As I was returning from the park's trash dump on our first day, I suddenly found myself virtually face-to-face with either a large fawn or a small doe, which was a pleasant surprise for a dumb ole country boy from Ft Lauderdale. My only "con" is that the pull-thru sites are on the small side for a big-rig pulling a toad. If my coach was longer than 40 feet, I probably would have had to unhook and park my Jeep off the site. Bottom line: we'd stay here again if we were in the area. - TW Flash

I was quite unsatisfied. The staff was unfriendly. The Wi-Fi was so bad (either not even possible to log on or very sluggish if you were lucky enough to got connected), it was one of those occasion when it'd been better to not have Wi-Fi at all. Given that the park advertises Wi-Fi as one of its amenities in big letters on their sign, this seems like a bad joke. When I mentioned the difficulties to the staff, they didn't seem to care and tried to tell me some nonsense about certain devices that wouldn't connect. The bathrooms/restrooms are ok and were clean, however when I was taking a shower, the water got cold at the end of my "washing cycle". Both of these issues, the not working Wi-Fi and insufficient supply of warm water, give you the impression that the management tries to maximize the profit by packing as much campers/RVers in the park as possible without making the necessary enhancements in the parks infrastructure to meet the demands of an increased amount of guests. This is a pity since the park itself is ok, has nice views and is considerably quiet. Could be a good park, but the way it is managed right now I wouldn't stay here again but look for some place else (which I actually did the two consecutive nights). - Chbronson

Nice campground, lots of tall pine trees. Makes it a little tight driving to the camp site but not bad. Campsite is gravel and has picnic table and fire ring. Site was almost level but had strange hook ups. Water and power on one side, sewer on the other side. Gave it a 8 would have been a 9 with cable. We were able to pull in many air TV stations. Wi-Fi was strong at our site (E-7). Did not check out pool, showers or laundry. Office staff was friendly and had a small but good selection of gifts and basic food supplies. Would stay here again. - topperdan

The most disappointing place of our 4,700 mile, 10 state trip. Definitely not for big rigs and we didn't even have one. Seemed over priced. Tight turns and poor, steep roads with ruts. It's a trade off of rocky, uneven treed sites for more level ones closer to road where trucks use exhaust brakes starting about 6 a.m. Park is heading down hill. Would not recommend. - Oregon91

The part of the campground we stayed in had lots of grassy area between sites. Staff was very helpful setting us up with a tour of the Badlands and Mount Rushmore. One of the staff was very helpful in our decision whether or not to stay for the chuckwagon portion of the tour (we did). They also had rental cars on site. Wi-fi was spotty but usable during off hours. - hoppers4

Big rig friendly. They let me wash the bugs off front of RV. Site was almost level. We had premium site with no patio. Our site was asphalt, a must since some sites were muddy. Very quiet yet right off Hwy 44. Staff gave us a great map to all the sites. - Linda m Malone

The grounds were immaculate. They have activities on the weekends. We had a pull-through site that was big enough for our rig, with room for our car. When we had a hard rain and found ourselves in a mud hole, told the office and within the hour had two loads of gravel on our site, which we thought was excellent. The campground has changed hands and the new owners are making many improvements which are very evident. The restrooms and showers are tiled and updated, very nice. We would definitely return when in the area. The price is for 50 amp with ROD. - clarksark

Rate reflects Coast to Coast Premier membership. We have been staying in a lot of Coast to Coast parks this summer and this by far the best. I thought we would be given a lesser spot, but that wasn't the case. We were given the biggest most spacious pull through we've ever had! The park is wonderfully maintained and everyone has been friendly. The only negative I can think of and it's minor, is the hot tub is too small and it's very heavy on the chlorine. We will for sure be back. - Fishen4trout

This is a very nice "Club Membership" park. We are members and enjoyed its closeness to the attractions and price. The showers are located in the pool facilities and a separate building. The "Club House" is used for the sales presentation and is not always available. The park is well maintained, as they are trying to sell memberships. Water pressure and electric is good even with a full park. Wi-Fi at our site was good. As nice as it is, it is not worth paying the non-member price. - A hitch and hop

Great basic park! Full RV hookups, mostly pull-throughs, tent sites, cabins. Small playground. We only needed a place to park as we toured the area, good central location. Very neat clean, grass and gravel sites. All kept mowed neatly. Managers are very nice and accommodating. - Sandpiper14

The park was well maintained and campsites were spacious. We were escorted to our site by park staff who made sure our hook-ups were working properly.

WiFi was weak, but we had our own MiFi. We would stay at this park again. - sc river ratz

The park is a nice park, does not have all the clubhouses and junk like the big corporate parks do, which is why we love it. The spaces are level gravel with grass between. The owners are so nice and told us many great things to see and do in the area. We will definitely stay here again. - elizabeth123

LA Opera Presents A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE with Renée Fleming, 5/18-24
When Renée Fleming returns to LA Opera this spring to headline the Company's first performances of A Streetcar Named Desire, General Director Plácido Domingo promises that it will be an experience to savor.
"I have been eager to bring Renée to Los Angeles as Blanche DuBois for more than a decade," said Mr. Domingo. "I was at the magnificent London concert performance of Streetcar conducted by Andre Previn in 2003, and her performance as Blanche was one that I will never forget. I am thrilled that L.A. audiences will now have the opportunity to see this incredible artist in a role tailored to her extraordinary talents."
The soprano starred in the 1998 world premiere of the opera by composer André Previn and librettist Philip Littell. She will reprise the role of Blanche DuBois in three semi-staged concert performances at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion this spring.
One of the most celebrated musical ambassadors of our time, Ms. Fleming made headlines last week when it was announced that she would sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Super Bowl XLVIII this Sunday, February 2. She will be the first opera singer ever to perform the national anthem at the NFL championship game, which had 164 million viewers last year, the largest television audience in U.S. history.
More About Ms. Fleming
Renée Fleming has captivated audiences around the globe with her sumptuous voice, consummate artistry, and compelling stage presence. Known as "the people's diva" and a four-time Grammy Award winner, including the 2013 Grammy for Best Classical Vocal Solo, she continues to grace the world's greatest opera stages and concert halls, now extending her reach to include other musical forms and media. She holds the position of Creative Consultant with Lyric Opera of Chicago. At a White House ceremony on July 10, 2013, President Barack Obama awarded her the 2012 National Medal of Arts, America's highest honor for an individual artist.
Ms. Fleming made her LA Opera mainstage debut in 2006 as Violetta in La Traviata. The production was filmed and released on DVD. LA Opera has also presented Ms. Fleming in recital three times, as well as in a 2013 joint recital with mezzo-soprano Susan Graham in collaboration with the LA Philharmonic.
Renée Fleming and A Streetcar Named Desire
"The role of Blanche DuBois is always a thrilling challenge," said Ms. Fleming. "She is an iconic character of the American stage, and-as realized for the opera by my cherished friend, the brilliant composer and Hollywood legend André Previn-I think she's compelling in new ways, for new audiences."
Ms. Fleming first appeared as the iconic faded Southern belle at the opera's world premiere in San Francisco in 1998. The operatic adaptation of the 1947 Tennessee Williams play was commissioned by the San Francisco Opera, where it was filmed for telecast on PBS' "Great Performances" and released on DVD.
Cast and Creative Team
In addition to Ms. Fleming, the principal cast will include:
- Bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as Stanley Kowalski
- Soprano Stacey Tappan as Stella
- Tenor Anthony Dean Griffey as Mitch
Mr. Griffey created the role of Harold "Mitch" Mitchell in the world premiere of A Streetcar Named Desire in San Francisco in 1998.

Inflation and Price Adjustment: An Analysis of Microdata
use large datasets on prices by products and stores from recent inflationary periods in Israel to compare simple menu cost models with simple uncertain and sequential trade (UST) models. The main empirical findings are (a) price erosion due to inflation explains only a tiny fraction of the variation in nonzero nominal price changes, (b) stores whose last nominal price change was relatively low are likely to choose a nominal price change that is relatively high, (c) stores that reduce their nominal price charge a lower price relative to stores that increase their nominal price, and (d) relative price variability is not related to inflation.

Publisher's Description
This humorously illustrated book is a collection of wisdom that renowned adventurer Bear Grylls wants to share with his sons about the risks, tumbles, and victories of a well-lived life.
Mountain climber, world-record holder, and internationally known television personality Grylls knows a thing or two about adventure. The greatest adventure he's experienced, though, is raising his three boys. In To My Sons, Grylls shares the quotes, Scripture verses, and spiritual wisdom he has learned through the literal ups and downs of an exciting life. Featuring cartoons from well-known sketch artist Charlie Mackesy, this book is a poignant primer for boys and men of all ages.
Author Bio
Bear Grylls is an internationally known adventurer, author, and motivational speaker who once had the world record as the youngest person to climb Mount Everest. He is also the host of Man vs. Wild, with a global audience of 1.2 billion, and the Chief Scout to 500,000 scouts in the United Kingdom. He lives with his wife, Shara, and three sons (Jesse, Marmaduke, and Huckleberry) on a barge on the Thames in London.
Product Reviews
Bearfan5 Stars Out Of 5Great little inspirational book!July 14, 2012BearfanQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This was a lovely little book. Indeed it's not big and doesn't contain lots of text. But that wasn't intented to be so. He shares life advice in the form of quotes and funny cartoons by artist Charlie Mackesy, his best buddy.
The advices are very inspirational and many of them are faith-based. Relevant scripture verses like Matt 28:20. Other christian quotes, many of which are focused on Jesus:
- "Jesus came to seek and to save us, let Him do his job!"
- "It is a sign of great strength to need Jesus in your life."
- "Moments of doubt are part of life. Accept them and remember that Jesus Himself said: My power is made perfect in weakness!"
Non-christians might not like the number of faith-based quotes that Bear put in, but the book contains relevant non-spiritual advice as well, so it's good for all.
What I liked was the fact that you get a very good idea of the person of Bear Grylls and what he values in life. To sum it up in a nutshell: Live your dreams, be kind to others, trust your life to Jesus Christ and value the Bible.
ClaireWinchester, VA2 Stars Out Of 5Wished there was more to it.July 6, 2012ClaireWinchester, VAQuality: 4Value: 2Meets Expectations: 2This was a cute book I purchased for my husband for Father's Day. He is a fan of Bear Grylls, but we were both disappointed that there was not more substance to the content of the book. It consists of an illustration on one page and an accompanied short sentence or two of advice (or an occaisional scripture verse) related to the cartoon and topic (127 pages). We were hoping for more of a story or narrative for him to enjoy.
JamieBellingham, WAAge: 45-54Gender: male1 Stars Out Of 5Save your money and pass on this book.February 19, 2012JamieBellingham, WAAge: 45-54Gender: maleQuality: 1Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1I bought this book because I like Bear and was excited to hear some good survival tips from a father to his sons. Unfortunately it is book filled with uninspiring sayings and overused thoughts. Not worth the $$$ or time. Bear is still the man but not much of an author.

Too bad I can't change the "Heading" button colors to other than blue, but I think it still looks good.
Posted 06 May 2010 - 03:00 PM
This site is awesome. You do nice work.
BTW, the first line of text on the home page (which will most likely
be the 'most read line') you probably meant to say "in a crowd'OF' women"
instead of 'OR' women.
Small thing but such a nice professional looking site it kinda jumped out at me.
Good luck with your site.
Randy :)

I've tweaked the header a little bit to try to add a little more blue so that the right column headers don't stand out so much.
Posted 06 May 2010 - 06:42 PM
and I don't want to make myself more busy than I already am, but feel free to post modification requests in the Flexx support forum. Free support (within limits) is included with your theme purchase.
You're not the first one wanting to change the widget headers, but I agree, it still looks good!
For example, changing this in your stylesheet style.css:
.sidebar h4 { clear: both; background-color: #e1771e; <=== changed color: #FFF; font-size: 11px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 8px 0px 8px 15px; line-height: 13px;}will probably make it
look worse , but it'll show you what can be
done easily.

1. Re: JavaFX & Java3daidreamer Jul 21, 2012 6:17 PM (in response to 278860)>
Has anyone got an example of building a Java3d scene graph and having it displayed in a JavaFX pane/panel
The only one I am aware of relied on an older version of JavaFX: www.interactivemesh.org/testspace/j3dmeetsjfx.html
It would be possible to use the new JavaFX Canvas Node to transfer rendering data from Java3D to JavaFX. I'm afraid I don't have any examples. Keep in mind however that Java3D is a little outdated and in another year and a half or so, JavaFX will eventually supersede Java3D with its own 3D capabilities.

Oklahoma football: Ranking the five most anticipated home games of the Bob Stoops era
Under coach Les Miles, Oklahoma State had stunned the Sooners in two straight seasons. Miles poured some gasoline on the rivalry fire after the Cowboys' win the week before Bedlam, when he said of the Sooners, "They're the best team in college football ... we're told." A couple days later, Miles uttered one of his more infamous quotes during his time in Stillwater: "Next Saturday two teams are going to play. One is maybe the best team in college football and the other one is a darn good football team. We're going to play to figure out which one is which." With GameDay in Norman, the No. 1 Sooners routed No. 14 Oklahoma State 52-9 to start a Bedlam win streak that lasted until last season.
The storied Alabama Crimson Tide made their first-ever trip to Norman in 2002. The Crimson Tide faithful came in droves, creating an exciting atmosphere for the battle of traditional powerhouses. The Tide was in its second year under Dennis Franchione, and certainly wasn't on par with the elite, Bear Bryant- or Nick Saban-coached 'Bama squads. But it turned into a heck of a game, with the Tide holding a 27-23 lead in the fourth quarter before running back Renaldo Works' last-minute heroics pushed the Sooners over the top. Oklahoma returned the favor, making its first-ever trip to Tuscaloosa, Ala., the next year in what became another close, memorable contest.

But, Vance Worley gave up a run on three hits while recording two outs. So, with the possible tying run in the on-deck circle, Melancon was summoned from the bullpen, and was able to get Victor Martinez to ground-out, securing the 8-4 Pirates win.

Ryan (1-2) gave up a solo home run to Francisco Cervelli in the fourth inning to kick off the scoring. He started the fifth inning by wallking the first two batters to face him. He was then lifted for a reliever, but one of the runs came around to score, charging Ryan with his second run of the game.
Ryan last pitched two-thirds on an inning in relief on June 24. He was supposed to start last Saturday, but the game was postponed due to rain, and he did not make another appearance until Thursday's start.

Perez will have to serve a 50-game suspension for his second drug abuse offense before he can play a game in the minors.

Mila Kunis on Being Single: 'I Don't Get Asked Out'
By Drew Mackie
She proved that "Black Swan" wasn't a fluke. Ever since, this former "That '70s Show" cutie has remained in the spotlight, both for her acting feats (such as starring opposite Justin Timberlake in "Friends With Benefits") and for her status as one of Hollywood's hottest bachelorettes. Speaking to Harper's Bazaar, Mila Kunis opens up about being single, her body post-"Black Swan" and more.
RELATED: See more from the Mila Kunis cover story
On staying single following her 2010 breakup with Macaulay Culkin:
"I don't get asked out. This past year, I haven't been home, so who's going to ask me? … I mean, I honestly think being single's great. Being in a relationship's great. It's all about the timing. I loved it."

This week the employees of Esri got creative with their answers in their own special ways. By leaving the question up for interpretation by the employee, we see creativity flow from department to department. There were many different approaches to the answer.
Why Esri? … Why Not?
Festive "Tea" Honors Retiring Employee
A colorful table setting and festive hats were part of a "high tea" luncheon held in the Washington, DC office to honor Judy Rote, who will be retiring from Esri June 30th. It was also Judy's birthday, so it was a dual celebration!
"My time with Esri has been a blessing, from getting to know of Jack and Laura and to having wonderful managers/supervisors," Judy reflected. "It truly has been a pleasure to work for and with Esri. My retirement is bittersweet because of getting to know everyone and missing them. So, thank you Esri for 16 wonderful years!"
Thank you, Judy, for your years with Esri and your many contributions. We wish you much happiness in your retirement.
Are You Made for Tech Support?
At a recent brown bag lunch for interns, a young professional, Kara, from Technical Support came to speak about what Esri looks for in a potential employee.
After graduating with a degree in geography, Kara became an intern at the Rae Selling Berry Seed Bank. With encouragement from her aunt, a geography professor at the University of Redlands, she pursued a job at Esri in Technical Support.
Kara spoke to the interns about her department and shredded any misconceptions of working in Technical Support. She showed the interns how being part of her department can be a stepping stone to a long-term career with Esri.
When hiring for the department, many would be intrigued to know what the most important characteristics are that hiring staff look for. Here are the four characteristics they look for in order of must have to teachable.
- Interest: Without interest in the company, you cannot help an employee grow when they may not want to be there.
- Communication: Unlike interest, communication can be developed. A good speaker and a patient listener are needed to help customers resolve their problems.
- Problem Solving Skills: Easily teachable compared to the top two characteristics.
- Technical Ability: This can be taught to anyone who wants to be part of the team, but without the interest in the company you have an employee who does not really want to be there.
The Technical Support department wants employees who want to be at their job and will enjoy the environment they work in. If this interests you, check out current openings here.
More Than Just Co-Workers
Rapport in Esri offices often extends beyond regular working hours, and the Denver office is no exception. They shared a few pictures of recent activities the team participated in.
With summer just under way, there will undoubtedly be more pictures coming soon, so check back to see what the team has been up to.
You Can't Sink These Interns … Boats
Have you ever wondered what you'd do if you were stranded on an island and only had a few materials to help you leave?
Last week the interns got together to do this on an imaginary island. Eight teams of six interns made boats and rafts to help them get off the "island," but naturally there was a twist. A seasoned employee was assigned to each team and would tell members they could not do something within their team, such as speak or use their hands or eyes.
Regardless, the teams still all accomplished what they set out to make. Then it was time to put the boats to the test and take them to the turtle pond on campus. This concerned a few people since the boats were made out of paper, tape, and aluminum foil. Surprisingly, every boat successfully floated in the pond. Some were even visited by the koi fish from the pond. Overall, it was a great day of bonding and team building for the interns.
Why Esri?
Have you ever wondered why employees enjoy working at Esri? Well, why not ask! That is exactly what I did, and have featured a few employees from various Esri teams. The photos not only show their enjoyment of working at Esri, but it also shows creativity, honesty, and diversity in their answers.
Keep a look out for more Why Esri? posts in the near future and see what others think.
An Esri Intern's Unique Experience at FEMA
Maddy Ernesto, an intern in Esri's Washington, DC office, recently had the opportunity to visit the FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) office and interact with its staff.
"FEMA in one word was awesome! Being an intern, I never imagined I would have the opportunity to accompany some of my co-workers to a site visit, so you can imagine I was a bit nervous yet extremely excited," said Maddy. "I was able to work hand-in-hand with FEMA workers developing maps and templates that will be used for disaster management in the future. I had never created any template or map that would be used for real-life scenarios, so it was a real honor to help with this project. The knowledge of how to more effectively use ArcGIS Online, along with the experience of working directly with clients, will be skills I will use throughout my GIS career and hopefully with Esri."
Happy to hear the interns are getting to do some very cool things with the company and are gaining professional skills along the way. Good luck to you, Maddy, and keep doing great work in the Washington, DC office.

Work Hard, Learn Harder: Esri Fellows Program
School and education are important tools in anyone's life. If you have this outlook–especially if you are pursuing a career here–you will be happy to know Esri does too.
Every year Esri offers its employees the opportunity to apply to the Fellows Program, available to those who want to go back to school to finish their degree. Esri partners with the University of Redlands and Claremont Graduate University to help these employees realize their goals.
This year there were 11 scholarship recipients in areas varying from Human Resources to Professional Services, IST to Product Development. Aimee, an accounting supervisor who has been with Esri 12 years, states her enthusiasm, "I have been fortunate to have had different people in my department mentor and encourage me and to have been able to promote within the department. I want to continue to give back to Esri and the people who have shown faith in me, and completing my degree will help me with that."
Robert, a product engineer for 15 years who is working towards his master's in GIS, is also encouraged by the award. "It's very encouraging to work for a company which provides such a generous educational opportunity to its employees. Given the number of fellows this year, it's clear that Esri is willing to facilitate the career aspirations of so many."
"I believe in a balance of work experience and advance education," said Steve in our IT Division. "By receiving a Fellowship, I will be able to enhance my academic knowledge and research abilities. Together with my 25 years work experience at Esri, I hope to transform traditional IT solutions to a more agile and customer oriented mindset to meet Esri's business and technology requirements."
Leslie in Human Resources will use the scholarship to complete her bachelor's degree. "I am so thankful for this extraordinary opportunity. I feel fortunate to be part of a company that encourages its employees to better themselves through education."
All employees are encouraged to further their education and personal development. Esri offers $3,000 per person per year to help them with educational expenses. It also provides professional development courses and training for those who wish to improve their technical, sales, interpersonal, and management skills.
Congratulations to all the recipients!
Brown Bag Lunch with Professional Services
A great benefit to being an intern with Esri is the ability to connect with seasoned employees. Recently the interns had the opportunity to hear the stories of Chad Helm and Christie Pleiss in the Professional Services Division on how they found themselves at Esri. Both have been here for many years and started with a technical background that led them to become managers.
We learned how Professional Services works in a wide range of industries and how much importance they have within Esri. While they do a lot of business in US and international government, they also work with customers in the commercial, utility, health, public safety, and natural resources sectors.
The interns had many great questions at the brown bag, including one regarding who Esri's biggest competition is. Chad had the perfect answer. "There are a number of organizations in the GIS space that are doing innovative work. Esri is proud of the work it is doing to enable our customers to make a difference."
The interns have many brown bag speakers to look forward to this summer. Thank you to Chad and Christie for taking their time to teach the interns about the Professional Services Division.
The New Kid on the Block
Some people say I am the master of multitasking, and they may just be right. While I am interning at Esri as a full-time summer intern I will also be a full-time student to make sure I will graduate on time and within four years. But wait . . . that's not all. While it is difficult to keep up with both workloads, let me tell you why I need to take summer classes.
I like to be prepared for the future, and I certainly love to be organized to make sure everything runs smoothly. The funny thing is, in my personal life I plan nothing. I go with the flow and just enjoy life, but professionally I have everything written down with deadlines before the real deadlines. But back to why I'm taking summer classes. I am a double major and a triple minor. Long story short, I like to pursue my passion and have a nice backup in place. So when I graduate from Penn State in May 2016, and yes only four years, this will be my business card:
This summer one of the things I'll be doing is creating content for Facebook and the Esri Careers blog. I hope to show the journey of new interns from this summer and highlight some of the amazing employees Esri has throughout the company. I want to change the way blogs impact the readers. I want to know about the people who comprise the company and I intend to highlight them in my posts.
I can only imagine where my internship with Esri will take me in my future. I hope you stay connected to the blog to find out about my work and that of other Esri employees.
If you want to see where I have been and how I got here, check out this story map of my life.

Gallery: Shipping Containers and Cars Stacked High as Colorful Eco Scul...
Shipping containers are often repurposed as houses, apartments and studios, but Swedish artist Michael Johansson sees them as building blocks for his sculptures. In a new exhibit in Umeå, Sweden, Johansson stacks shipping containers, shipping pallets, trash cans, a volvo, a tractor and an old RV to create art that any hipster would be jealous of. The result is Self Contained, a three dimensional temporary wall that is a fascinating collage of textures, colors and repurposed objects.

Colorful, yes. Also rusty and ugly. Who wants to live next to a what looks like a giant cube of compacted garbage? Also gonna take a ton of wear from the elements – there's a good reason why steel is heavily treated before being used structurally. This thing will have rust flowing from it like a red river.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial plant of the ginger family, Zingiberaceae. It is native to tropical South Asia and needs temperatures between 20 °C and 30 °C (68 °F and 86 °F) and a considerable amount of annual rainfall to thrive. Plants are gathered annually for their rhizomes, and propagated from some of those rhizomes in the following season.
When not used fresh, the rhizomes are boiled for several hours and then dried in hot ovens, after which they are ground into a deep orange-yellow powder commonly used as a spice in curries and other South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine, for dyeing, and to impart color to mustard condiments. Its active ingredient is curcumin and it has a distinctly earthy, slightly bitter, slightly hot peppery flavor and a mustardy smell. Curcumin can be used to test the alkalinity or acidity of foods. It turns yellow in an acidic food, and it turns red in an alkaline food.
In medieval Europe, turmeric became known as Indian saffron, since it was widely used as an alternative to the far more expensive saffron spice.
