High school
students learn
about conservation
By Jack Riddell
Mpp Huron
Twenty-eight Ontario high school students have
been given an opportunity to participate in a sev-
en -week workshop about conservation, sponsored
by the Ministry of Natural Resources.
The Program, started in 1966, gives young peo-
ple first-hand exposure to natural resources, their
management, and conservation issues.
The participants, who come from all regions of
the province, are selected by a panel of ministry
-staff-on_ther-basis of their age and their answers to
. a questionnaire on environmental issues.
Workshops are located in.four different areas.
Conservation Authorities in North Bay evaluate
wetlands, while others develop new hiking trails in
Sault Ste. Marie. The Maitland Valley Conserva-.
tion Authority will benefit from students helping
map the physical and biological features of a
neighbouring creek while students at the Upper
Thames River Conservation Authority will study
water erosion.
The students work under the supervision of min-
istry and conservation authority staff. they receive
a living allowance, meals and accommodation.
