Entertaining and informative adventure

employees have presented the programs while the branches supplied craft materials. Outside the library network, the curricu- lum-based, one-hour “Watershed Adven- ture” programs have been delivered to sev- eral hundred other young people this year. “It’s part of our ongoing initiatives to reach watershed residents starting with the youngest,” said Allison VanLoon, SNC Com- munications Assistant. “Like everything else, for it to have a long-term impact, the conservation message is best introduced early on.” So successful has the programming been

that SNC is seeking to partner inWatershed Adventure with other groups and munici- palities. For further information, contact Allison, 1-877-984-2948, ext. 249, or avan- loon@nation.on.ca. “If the interest in there, it’s free for the ask- ing,”VanLoon pointed out. “There’s a hands- on component and it appeals to children of all ages.” SNC offers 10 different adventure packag- es such as “It’s a Bug’s Life”, “Totally Turtles” and “Fishing Frenzy”. Each presentation de- livers an overview on how watersheds or drainage basins work and how pollution

can enter and interfere with the natural or- der. “It’s a Bug’s Life”zeroes in on insect spe- cies, their characteristics and what they can tell us about the health of watercourses. “Totally Turtles” singles out six species-at- risk turtles in Eastern Ontario, showing how to recognize them, understand their habits, and how to help conserve them. “Fishing Frenzy” plunges into the multitude of fish species in the South Nation system, includ- ing the invasive ones. “It might be the most informative hour your child will spend this summer,” Van- Loon concluded.
