MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
As Chairman of the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority, I am pleased
to be able to present to you the fourth
edition of our Valleys and People
newsletter.
This newsletter highlights various
ongoing projects and programs of the
Authority and will help to give you a
basic understanding of the work of
your conservation authority in your
municipality.
Our organization is at the forefront
of resource management efforts within
a defined watershed area. We have
established day use recreational areas,
campgrounds and natural areas for
your use and enjoyment. I invite you to
use them, tell your friends about them
and enjoy the fine facilities available
right in our own area of the Province.
If you have a resource management
problem or concern, don't hesitate to
call the conservation authority. Our
staff are qualified, ready and able Io
assist you in dealing with your resource
management concerns. Remember
your conservation authority - it's
yours, use it.
Best Wishes for 1986.
Vince Judge,
Chairman

LOCAL FIRM
SUPPORTS CONSERVATION
Conservation education means lear
ning more about the wise use of our
natural resources. Sure, this means be
ing outside, but wouldn't it he nice if
there was a warm, comfortable
classroom on site?
The comfortable classroom was
already available at (he Wawanosh
Valley Conservation Area. It was the
warmth that the Maitland Valley Con
servation Authority couldn't afford to
fund.
The Maitland Conservation Founda
tion, a non-profit fund raising
organization, set to work to raise funds
(or the installation of heating in the
classroom.
John MacDonald, President of Ideal
Supply Company Lid., when approach
ed for the contribution commented
that he was happy to assist in the
development of the Wawanosh Valley
Conservation Education Centre. Mr.
MacDonald also indicated his pleasure
in supporting this type of local educa
tional project.
Today, thanks Io the generousity of
Mr. J. MacDonald our classroom is
lieated and from the staff and students
al Wawanosh, our "warmest" thanks.
