You may have noticed all the ads for Eckerd Youth Alternatives on Outdoorzy lately. Eckerd is a new advertiser on the site, and is going to be advertising with us for a while. I wasn’t familiar with what Eckerd did until I started exploring their site last night. I’m very impressed with the way they provide opportunities not only for the children who attend their camps, but for the employees who work there.
Imagine having a job where you can backpack, camp, AND help teach kids how to enjoy all the outdoor activities you love so much. They have jobs all over the country, and from the looks of their job board they always have openings. There are part-time seasonal and full-time positions available.
Many people question the way they spend their days and wonder if there are more meaningful options out there. It looks like there are always jobs available at Eckerd.

Online magazines are increasingly popping up on the web. I have frequented a few in the past, but some reason, they decided to change and become print magazines. Hopefully, this one will stay around for awhile. This Is Fly is the next online magazine that has a lot of potential for lasting many years. This Is Fly has fresh, new, young, rock and roll atmosphere to the magazine.
When you access the main page, the This Is Fly looks like a real magazine. You can turn the page by clicking the bottom right corner of the page and moving it across the screen, clicking on the page numbers, or the “Next” button. While you are looking through the magazine, you can activate the embedded mp3 player that contains a wide selection of music from rap (Beastie Boys), rock (Korn), reggae (Bob Marley), etc and the music changes every month with each new issue.
Within the pages of the magazine, there are interviews, stories, articles, and information on national and international destinations. If gear is your thing, then check out the “Goodz”. If you want to see a new and exciting online magazine, check out This Is Fly. I wish there were more online magazines like this one.
