“아이들에게 도전할 기회를”…양주 승마 꿈나무 키우는 왕윤재 양주시승마협회장_我的网站

一 |     왕윤재 양주시승마협회장. 이종현기자 ‘한 걸음의 용기가 꿈을 만들고 한 번의 도전이 미래를 바꾼다고 믿습니다.’ 한성승마클럽의 대표이자 양주시승마협회를 이끌고 있는 왕윤재 회장은 청소년들의 꿈을 키워주는 재능기부에 열심이다. 한성승마클럽은 한국마사회가 인정한 경기도 유소년 승마 체험교육의 산실이다. 왕 회장은 클럽을 경기도권에서 가장 많은 학생 승마교실을 운영하고, 학생승마 평가 경기도 1위를 자랑하는 승마장으로 키워냈다. 그는 유소년 때부터 말과 친해지고 승마 국가대표의 꿈을 키워갈 수 있도록 올해 동두천양주교육지원청과 함께 승마 공유학교 운영을 시작했다. 학생들이 배운 것이 실제 경기 경험으로 이어질 수 있도록 훈련 프로그램을 연계하고 훈련마 지원, 시설 제공, 경기 적응훈련, 안전교육, 대회 준비까지 지원하고 있다. 왕 회장은 “승마 꿈나무들이 쉽게 접하기 어려운 승마를 경기공유학교를 통해 부담 없이 체험하고, 자신의 가능성을 발견할 수 있다는 점에서 매우 의미 있다”며 “아이들이 단순한 체험에서 끝나지 않고 스스로 목표를 세워 대회에 도전하는 모습을 보면서 교육의 힘을 다시 한번 느꼈다. 앞으로도 더 많은 아이가 다양한 경험을 통해 성장하고, 미래를 준비할 수 있는 교육환경을 조성할 것”이라고 말했다. 다만 과천경마공원 이전 유치를 추진하고 있는 양주지역의 승마장들이 하나둘씩 문을 닫는 현실에 대해서는 안타까운 심정을 드러냈다. 어렵게 유치했던 체험 프로그램이 예산 부족을 이유로 사라지는 현실도 아쉽다는 입장이다. 이와 관련, 왕 회장은 “말산업을 발전시키려면 저변 확대와 함께 어려서부터 말과 친숙해지는 문화가 필요하고, 진입장벽도 더 낮춰야 한다”며 “그러기 위해서는 양주시와 교육지원청 등이 더 많은 지원에 나서야 한다”고 목소리를 높였다. 이런 가운데 양주시승마협회는 매년 유소년 승마대회를 꾸준히 개최하며 내실을 다지고 있다. 여기엔 승마 저변을 확대하는 동시에 미래를 이끌 유소년 선수 육성에도 힘을 쏟아야 한다는 왕 회장의 의지가 담겼다. 그는 “지역에는 승마를 배우고 싶어도 하지 못하는 유소년들이 많다. 승마가 어려운 것이 아니라 접근하기가 어렵기 때문”이라며 “승마가 우리 주변에서 쉽게 접하고 즐길 수 있는 문화산업으로 거듭나도록 더 열심히 뛰겠다”고 각오를 다졌다.。

二 |     Joran van der Sloot, the main suspect in the 2005 disappearance of Natalee Holloway, pleaded guilty Wednesday to federal extortion charges related to the Alabama teenager's disappearance and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.As a part of the plea deal, van der Sloot agreed to provide information about the 18-year-old's disappearance in Aruba to Holloway's mother, Beth Holloway.Van der Sloot said he killed Natalee Holloway on a beach, bludgeoned her face with a cinderblock and then disposed of her body in the ocean, according to a partial transcript of a proffer meeting he had with prosecutors on Oct. 3.Van der Sloot said Natalee Holloway had wanted to go back to her hotel that night, but he arranged for the two to get dropped off "a little bit further away from her hotel so we could walk back … and I might still get a chance to be with her," van der Sloot said in the meeting with prosecutors.As the two walked alone on the beach, van der Sloot said he "laid her down" and they began kissing, and then Holloway told him to stop.But he said he kept pursing her, and Natalee Holloway "knees me in the crotch," van der Sloot said, according to the transcript."When she knees me in the crotch I get up on the beach and I kick her extremely hard in the face," he continued.He said the teen was then "laying down unconscious, possibly even dead," according to the transcript.Van der Sloot told prosecutors he then found a cinderblock on the beach and "smashed" her head with it.He said he walked into the ocean up to his knees and pushed Natalee Holloway's body into the water.In court Wednesday, as van der Sloot pleaded guilty to federal extortion charges, Beth Holloway said, "Joran, for 18 years you denied killing my daughter," and now "you have finally admitted that you, in fact, have murdered her.""You are a killer. I want you to remember that every time that jail door slams," she said."Even if you have finally confessed ... you can't be tried here for her murder. But I do employ the court to give you the maximum sentence possible," Beth Holloway said.Turning to van der Sloot, she added, "By the way, you look like hell, Joran. I don't know how you are going to make it."She left the podium in tears.Van der Sloot, 36, apologized in court to the Holloway family and his own family, and said he hopes "the statement that I provided will provide some kind of closure.""I am not the same kind of person today as I was then, I have given my heart to Jesus Christ," he said.Natalee Holloway's dad, Dave Holloway, said in a statement, "Today's proceeding confirmed that this defendant murdered Natalee and then tortured and extorted those who loved her most.""He is evil personified," Dave Holloway said.The judge Wednesday accepted the plea agreement and said van der Sloot brutally murdered two young women who refused his sexual advances, but that his confession in the Natalee Holloway case cannot be used against him.The judge sentenced van der Sloot to 20 years in prison to run concurrently with the Peruvian sentence. He will also have to pay restitution to Beth Holloway.Van der Sloot initially pleaded not guilty to the extortion and wire fraud charges in June after he was extradited to the U.S. from Peru, where he had been serving a 28-year sentence for the 2010 murder of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.In 2010, van der Sloot was indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly trying to extort Holloway's family.Federal prosecutors alleged that in March 2010 van der Sloot contacted Beth Holloway through her lawyer, John Q. Kelly, and claimed he would reveal the location of the teen's body in exchange for $250,000, with $25,000 paid upfront. During a recorded sting operation, Kelly met with van der Sloot at an Aruba hotel, giving him $10,000 in cash as Beth Holloway wired $15,000 to van der Sloot's bank account, according to prosecutors.Then, van der Sloot allegedly changed his story about the night he was with Natalee Holloway, prosecutors said. Van der Sloot claimed he had picked Natalee Holloway up, but she demanded to be put down, so he threw her to the ground. Van der Sloot said her head hit a rock and he claimed she died instantly from the impact, according to prosecutors.Van der Sloot then took Kelly to a house and claimed that his father, who had since died, buried Natalee Holloway in the building's foundation, prosecutors said.Kelly later emailed van der Sloot, saying the information he had provided was "worthless," according to prosecutors. Within days, van der Sloot left Aruba for Peru.After court ended Wednesday, Beth Holloway told reporters, "I got the answer I’ve been searching for for the last 18 years. ... For me, reaching the end of the nightmare is better than closure."ABC News' Miles Cohen contributed to this report.。
