Delap Cemetery

Delap Cemetery (or De Lap Cemetery) is a Civil War cemetery located on De Lap Lane (off Ellison Road) in Campbell County, Tennessee. It contains the graves of approximately 150 Confederate soldiers who died while camped near the base of Pine Mountain in the Jacksboro, Tennessee, area. The cemetery also family members from the nearby community of De Lap. The soldiers included members of North Carolina's 58th Regiment of the Confederate Army. The regiment had been formed at Camp Martin in Mitchell County, North Carolina. They had traveled from Cumberland Gap to Jacksboro, and were assigned to guard Big Creek Gap. There were approximately 1,000 soldiers camped at Jacksboro. In addition to North Carolina, there were soldiers from Tennessee and Alabama. The cemetery was kept up until the 1960s, but had fallen into disrepair. While the plot of land was known to be a cemetery due to the sunken graves, knowledge that it was a military burial ground had been lost. Since Campbell County was strongly pro-Union in sentiment, there was no knowledge of a C.S.A. burial ground. However, a North Carolina descendant of one of the soldiers visited Campbell County in December 2002 and produced documents verifying the deaths of 50 soldiers at the base of Pine Mountain. After her visit, the local community began work to clear the cemetery. Fifty military tombstones have been set up at the cemetery. Tennessee’s Sons of Confederate Veterans’ Longstreeet–Zollicoffer Camp # 87 raised the funds for the tombstones. The cemetery was rededicated on June 11, 2005.

Discovery Center at Murfree Spring

The Discovery Center is a children's museum, nature center and wetlands boardwalk near downtown Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Exhibits include themed exploration areas for town life, science, trains, cars, a fire engine and farmers market. There are live animals on display, an outdoor nature play area, and trails through the wetlands. History The Discovery Center began as the "Discovery House", a children's museum, in 1986. During its first year of operation it had 11,000 visitors. In 1995 after it outgrew its old location the Discovery House staff, Congressman Bart Gordon and Murfreesboro Mayor Joe Jackson, with the help of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, began to study the possibility of reusing the vacated site of the old Murfreesboro Water & Sewer Plant. After several years it was decided that, for environmental reasons, the old structures should be demolished and new buildings built. In 1996 the City of Murfreesboro leased 6.5 acres (2.6 ha) of city land to the Discovery House. The Board of Directors, with the help of local citizens, was able to procure a large amount of privately donated wetlands. They then began a grassroots funding campaign to raise the money needed for the 'Discovery Center". By 1999 $1.8 million had been raised and the construction of the 18,000 sq ft (1,700 m2) center began in 2001. Its grand opening was held August 3, 2002. As well as its museum the Discovery Center includes 20 acres (81,000 m2) of wetland. The Discovery Center and the City's Greenway trail system and parks have reversed decades of local environmental damage and preserved large areas of vanishing wetlands and natural areas which include rare native plants. The Discovery Center marsh contains the state's largest population of sessile water-speedwell. In 2014, the Center received over 130,000 visitors annually. References External links Official website
Dixon Gallery and Gardens

The Dixon Gallery and Gardens is an art museum within 17 acres of gardens, established in 1976, and located at 4339 Park Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee, United States. The museum focuses on French and American impressionism and features works by Monet, Degas, and Renoir, Pierre Bonnard, Mary Cassatt, Marc Chagall, Honoré Daumier, Henri Fantin-Latour, Paul Gauguin, Henri Matisse, Berthe Morisot, Edvard Munch, Auguste Rodin, and Alfred Sisley, as well as an extensive collection of works by French Impressionist artist Jean-Louis Forain. The museum also houses the Stout Collection of 18th-century German porcelain. With nearly 600 pieces of tableware and figures, it is one of the such collections in the United States. The Dixon also features a schedule of original and traveling exhibitions of fine art and horticulture. The museum sits within four principal outdoor sculpture gardens with Greco-Roman sculpture. Its site was acquired by the Dixons in 1939, and landscaped in the English Garden style with open vistas adjacent to smaller, intimate formal spaces. The major areas within the gardens are the Cutting Garden, Formal Garden, South Lawn, and Woodland Gardens. Permanent collection The original collection of paintings, on view in the Dixon residence, is devoted to French and American Impressionists, Post-Impressionists, and related schools. The core of the collection was acquired with the guidance of the late John Rewald, a leading authority on French Impressionism. The collection also includes 18th- and 19th-century British portraits and landscapes in keeping with Hugo Dixon's English heritage. In accordance with the Dixon's interest, the museum has over the years acquired works by the French Impressionists who showed at one of the eight group Impressionist exhibitions. Also a priority are the works by other artists of the period, both Impressionist and Realist, who have not yet received the recognition of Degas, Monet, or Pissarro. An example of this is the Dixon's recent acquisition of 56 works by the French artist Jean-Louis Forain, this making the Dixon a major international repository of the artist's work. In 1996, in conjunction with the museum's 20th anniversary, the Dixon acquired 23 paintings and sculptures in a gift purchase agreement with the Montgomery H.W. Ritchie family of Palo Duro, Texas. The Ritchie Collection greatly enhances the museum's holdings of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works. Education The Dixon Education Department promotes interest in the arts and horticulture through specific programming for children, adults, and outreach groups. Some of the Dixon's programs include the children's program Mini Masters, the adult lecture series Munch and Learn, and the school outreach program Art to Grow.

Douglass High School (Memphis, Tennessee)

Douglass High School is a public high school (grades 9-12) in Memphis, United States, Tennessee, operated in the Memphis-Shelby County Schools. Located in the African American Douglass neighborhood in North Memphis, it is named for Frederick Douglass, a 19th-century abolitionist. History The original Douglass High School was built in 1938. It burned to the ground and was replaced by a new building in 1946. The school opened in 1946 in the Shelby County Schools district and operated in the original Frederick Douglass High School building until 1981 when it closed. Closure occurred after cross-town busing for desegregation caused enrollment to plummet as African American students were bused out of the neighborhood, but few white students reciprocated by attending Douglass. Subsequently, the school district used the building for storage, and it fell into a state of disrepair. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998, but was torn down in 2006 to be replaced by a new building. The current building was started in 2006 and the new Douglass High School opened to students in fall 2008. The new Douglass School opened for the 2008-09 school year, with expected enrollment of at least 800 students. The mascot is the Red Devil and colors are maroon, red and white. Alumni Douglass High School has an active alumni association with more than 500 members in seven chapters across the United States. The association raises funds for scholarships and other purposes, and its member alumni lobbied public officials to reopen the school. A parade was held to commemorate the demolition of the building.

Dollywood è un parco divertimenti fondato dalla cantante country Dolly Parton nel 1986, di proprietà congiunta di Parton e della Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation. Si trova a Pigeon Forge, in Tennessee. A Dollywood fanno capo diverse altre attività sia commerciali che benefiche. Con oltre 3000 impiegati, Dollywood è il più rilevante datore di lavoro dell'area. Il parco ha oltre 2 milioni di visitatori ogni anno, anche grazie alla presenza nella stessa zona del celebre parco nazionale delle Smoky Mountains, che è il parco nazionale più visitato degli Stati Uniti. Il parco comprende attrazioni tradizionali da parco divertimenti ma anche negozi di artigianato locale, e viene utilizzato come sede per eventi musicali (in alcuni casi anche concerti della Parton) e di altro genere. Fra le attività secondarie che fanno capo a Dollywood ci sono il Dollywood's Splash Country (un parco acquatico anch'esso situato a Pigeon Forge) e la catena di teatri-ristorante Dixie Stampede, presente a Pigeon Forge, a Myrtle Beach (Carolina del Sud) e a Branson (Missouri). Parte dei proventi delle strutture di Dollywood è destinato ad attività benefiche attraverso la Dollywood Foundation, una fondazione che si occupa principalmente dell'alfabetizzazione dei bambini. La Dollywood Foundation gestisce un programma chiamato Imagination Library, che prevede l'invio gratuito di un libro al mese a tutti i bambini di età inferiore ai 6 anni residenti nelle tre aree in cui sono presenti le attività di Dollywood (Pigeon Forge, Myrtle Beach e Branson).

Dollywood

Dollywood is een themapark gewijd aan Dolly Parton. Het is in handen van entertainer Dolly Parton en Herschend Family Entertainment. Het is gelegen in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee in de Verenigde Staten. Dollywood heeft 3.000 mensen in dienst, waarmee het de grootste werkgever is in de omgeving. Naast de standaard pretpark-thrillrides biedt Dollywood traditionele ambachten en muziek uit het Smoky Mountains gebied. Dollywood is ook eigenaar van het aangrenzende Dollywood's Splash Country (zwemparadijs met glijbanen) en de keten van Dixie Stampede Dinner theaters. Het park verzorgt een aantal concerten en muzikale evenementen per jaar met optredens van Dolly Parton en haar familie en andere nationale en lokale muzikale acts. Zo heeft onder anderen goede vriend Kenny Rogers optredens verzorgd in het park. Dollywood krijgt 2,5 miljoen gasten in een seizoen. Vanaf 2009 is er een stijging van 1,3 miljoen bezoekers in vergelijking met 1986 toen het park werd geopend. Met ingang van 2010 is het park elk jaar de grootste "betaalde" toeristische attractie in Tennessee. Parton schrijft een groot deel van het succes van het park toe aan zijn ligging dicht bij Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Aangezien (vanaf 2010) 88 procent van de toeristen in Tennessee Dollywood bezocht, is de economische impact van een grote toeristische attractie als Dollywood belangrijk voor de economie in de regio van de staat, aldus Susan Whitaker, toerismecommissaris van de staat. Het themapark is operationeel van maart tot en met december. Dollywood is ook de plek van de Southern Gospel Museum and Hall of Fame, gesponsord door de Southern Gospel Music Association, een onafhankelijke non-profitorganisatie. Parton zei in 2010 dat ze in de toekomst graag meer Dollywood-parken wil openen. "We zijn zeker druk bezig met uitbreiden van nieuwe dingen in het park." In de toekomst ziet ze een resort nog wel zitten. "We kunnen uiteindelijk Dollywoods openen in andere delen van de Verenigde Staten, waar we trouw kunnen blijven aan dat deel van de wereld waar het park zich bevindt." Achtbanen Ongelukken In 2014 werd het park aangeklaagd nadat een vrouw uit de Waltzing Swinger viel.

Dyer Observatory

The Dyer Observatory, also known as the Arthur J. Dyer Observatory, is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by Vanderbilt University. Built in 1953, it is located in Nashville, Tennessee, and is the only university facility not located on the main campus in Nashville. The observatory is named after Arthur J. Dyer, who paid for the observatory's 24-foot (7.3 m)-wide dome, and houses a 24-inch (610 mm) reflecting telescope named for astronomer Carl Seyfert. Today, the observatory primarily serves as a teaching tool; its mission is to interest the public in the fields of astronomy, science and engineering. The observatory was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 6, 2009. History Vanderbilt's first observatory was housed on the campus itself. It was equipped with a 6-inch (150 mm) refracting telescope and was the site of E. E. Barnard's earliest astronomical work. Barnard would eventually discover 16 comets and the fifth moon of Jupiter, receive the only honorary degree Vanderbilt has ever awarded, and have the on-campus observatory named in his honor. However, that on-campus observatory would eventually prove insufficient for the university's needs. When Seyfert joined the university's faculty in 1946, he lobbied for increasing the astronomy department's modest course offerings and for a new observatory. He solicited donations from over 80 Nashville businesses to outfit the new observatory and convinced Dyer, owner of Nashville Bridge Company, to donate the funds for and to install the observatory's dome. When the observatory opened in December 1953, Seyfert was named its director, and, after his death, the 24-inch (610 mm) telescope was named in his honor. The dome was originally painted aluminium, but this caused problems with observations before midnight while the telescope dome cooled. It was subsequently painted white in 1963, which significantly reduced the temperature of the dome and improved observations.

Observatorio Dyer

El Observatorio Dyer (nombre original en inglés: Dyer Observatory, o también Arthur J. Dyer Observatory), es un observatorio astronómico propiedad de la Universidad Vanderbilt, que también se encarga de operarlo. Construido en 1953, está localizado en Brentwood, Tennessee, y es la única instalación universitaria no localizada en el campus principal de Nashville. El observatorio lleva el nombre de Arthur J. Dyer, quien costeó la construcción de la cúpula de 7,3 m de diámetro que alberga el telescopio reflector de 24-pulgadas (610 mm) que lleva el nombre del astrónomo Carl Seyfert. El observatorio se utiliza en la actualidad principalmente como herramienta de enseñanza. Su misión es interesar a los niños en los campos de la ciencia y la ingeniería.​ Se inscribió en el Registro Nacional de Sitios Históricos de los Estados Unidos el 6 de marzo de 2009.​​ Historia El primer observatorio de la Universidad Vanderbilt estaba localizado en el campus de la institución. Estaba equipado con un telescopio refractor de 6-pulgadas (150 mm), con el que E. E. Barnard realizó sus primeros trabajos astronómicos. Barnard descubriría finalmente 16 cometas y la quinta luna de Júpiter, recibiendo el único grado honorario otorgado por Vanderbilt a lo largo de su historia, y siendo el observatorio nombrado en su honor.​ El observatorio del campus finalmente sería insuficiente para las necesidades de la universidad.​ Cuando Seyfert se incorporó a la facultad de la universidad en 1946, empezó a buscar influencias para ampliar la modesta oferta del departamento de astronomía y para disponer de un nuevo observatorio. Solicitó donaciones a más de ochenta negocios de Nashville para patrocinar el nuevo observatorio, y convenció a Dyer, propietario de la de Nashville Bridge Company, para que donase los fondos necesarios para instalar el domo del observatorio. Cuando el observatorio se inauguró en diciembre de 1953, Seyfert fue nombrado su director, y después de su muerte, el telescopio de 24-pulgadas (610 mm) recibió su nombre.​ Véase también Lista de observatorios Referencias Enlaces externos Vanderbilt Dyer Observatory homepage Vanderbilt Dyer Observatory Clear Sky Clock Forecasts of observing conditions.
