Strategies of Implementing Sporting-Recreational Activities in Tourism at the Level of the Argeș District

Abstract

Starting from the assumption that the organization of the sporting-recreational activities represents a complex instructive - educational activity which must contribute to an enhancement of knowledge, to the formation of practical abilities, to the development of observation, of thinking and initiative, as well as to the stimulation of the pupils’ interest in independent activities with a recreational
purpose, we recommend that the objectives of the activities should be established very carefully in order to correspond to the possibilities and interest of school children. The research carried out by us confirmed the above assumption, in the sense that the development of a touristic area cannot be done without a diversity of
sporting-recreational activities which play the role of improving the general culture and the acquisition of information, of opening to socialization, to love and respect for nature. Thus, the cultural, natural and touristic potential of the Arges district can be better known and valorized, using intensely the forms of practicing tourism,
accessible to the different categories of individuals. Tourism is important not only in modeling and shaping human personality but also in the economic area, as it is one of the main sources which bring considerable revenues.
