Bayfield area community unveils local
watershed plan at fortieth Bannockburn Fall Hike
Annual hill hike attracted
120 people despite rain;
Main Bayfield Watershed
Plan aims to increase forest and
streainside cover and wetlands
to help reduce E. coli, total
phosphorus, and total
suspended solids in local
streams, rivers, and lakes
ABCA
Some rain fell but that didn't deter 120 peo-
ple who took part in the 40th Bannockburn Fail
!like on Sunday, October (3. The event began
with a short ceremony by a community advi-
sory committee, from Hayfield and area, to
unveil the new plan for the Main Hayfield
Watershed.
The Main Bayfield Watershed includes the
main stein of the Hayfield River, from Clinton
to the mouth of the river in Bayfield, as well as
Trick's Creek. Community residents worked on
an advisory committee for two years to create
the management plan. '1 he community plan,
released on Sunday, sets a goal to improve local
water quality and quantity, and to increase for-
est cover, wetlands and stneamside cover. 'Ihe
advisory committee wants to reduce
Escherichia coli (Is. coli) bacteria, total phos-
phorus, and total suspended solids in local
streams, the river, and the lake. Recommenda-
tions in the plan include establishing buffers
and rain gardens, creating wetlands or berms,
maintaining crop residue, following nutrient
management plans, and planting windbreaks
and trees on marginal land.
"'there are simple things we can do to help
Mother Nature improve water quality in our
watershed," said Ainslie Wilcock, a member of
the Main Hayfield advisory committee. "We
can plant trees such as willows and poplars in
wet areas. 'Ihey are extremely efficient at clean-
ing up the water due to their extensive root sys-
tems and need for water. We can plant native
flowers that require less watering. We can
install and use rain barrels. We can leave green
buffer strips along creeks and watercourses:'
She said other ways to improve the water-
shed include retiring marginal farm land and
aiming to have "30 per cent of farm land cov-
ered in crops 100 per cent of the time."
"We can make our water cleaner by slowing
the water clown before it reaches streams and
rivers and to give the plants and sun time to
clean the water and keep the soil on the land,"
she said.
t lealthy Watershed Technician I lope Brock,
of Ausable Hayfield Conservation, thanked the
Fred A. and Barbara M. Erb Family Foundation
for its $100,000 contribution that trade it pos-
sible to work with landowners and residents to
conduct community-based planning at the
local watershed scale, and other work to
improve water duality between 2011 and 2013.
'the Erb Family Foundation is a U.S. foundation
dedicated to nurturing environmentally
healthy and culturally vibrant communities in
metroioolitan Detroit and supporting initiatives
to restore the Great Lakes Basin. 'the Erb family
has a long association with Hayfield.

'the 40th fall hike attracted 120 hikers despite
the weather. Hikers enjoyed free refreshments
at the hike - including cider, apples, and milk.
'Ihe refreshments were donated by 1 luron Fish
and Game Club, McClymont Century Orchard
of Varna, Wellesley Apple Products, and t lurm
County Dairy Producers.
"It was great to sC(' members of the commu-
nity join us in celebrating the 40th anniversary
of the Bannockburn I like," said Denise lszczuk,
Conservation Ecducation'li'chnician with Aus-
abie Hayfield Conservation. "Many people
have made this event a family tradition;'
"I've come to this event every year for forty
years;' one woman said at the event.
"that's the kind of dedication that will ensure
this event and this conservation area will be
around for others to enjoy in the years to come;"
lszccuk said.
Hikers enjoyed the refreshments and nature
walk and they also teamed about how they can
protect soil, water, and living things. Staff mem-
bers from Ausahle Hayfield Conservation were
stationed throughout the trill to share updates
about forests and wetlands, water quality and
quantity, stewardship and grants, research and
monitoring, Watershed Report Cards, and
geouaching.
The hike has drawn thousands of visits over
the years and some hikers recorded some
thoughts and memories in a log book. For
