Seija and Sue were honored to be a part of this unique group’s annual meeting. Seija conducted a presentation on Manitoulin Streams; educating on stream rehabilitation, and Sue gave a sample of “Stream Detective”, showing what we do in-stream with children in the summer. We were lucky to have John Snow attend (retired biology teacher) with his microscope giving an in depth look into  magnified life. We enjoyed a fabulous lunch provided by the ladies and Gardens Gate, and are pleased to have partnered with this excellent group.

A New Environmental Educational- BAT House Project

6/23/2015

1 Comment

 
On Monday June 23 Sue and Nathan did a bat house building project with the grade 2 class at Assiginack Public School in Manitowaning. As bat populations in many areas of the world are starting to decline, projects like these will help provide habitat for our little winged friends. The students had an educational on the importance of bats and watched a video on how to assemble this bat house provided through CWF Canadian Wildlife Federation.

Ongoing documenting will take place with the students to collect results from this project. Bat houses will be encouraged to be placed throughout the island, in hopes of increasing populations noticeably dwindling. Great job Assiginack!

Pony rides, the petting zoo and games gave quite an exciting day to these youngsters who ran non-stop at the ranch.

Thanks again to Willy at KMR for this amazing partnership, fun times and awesome BBQ!
