This paper is aimed at dealing with the geese on the Gull River and Minden’s situation. Planting along the shoreline, oiling the eggs and increased hunting are the three most effective methods of dealing with Canada Geese but they are expensive. There is too much shoreline for planting to be immediately feasibly though it would solve erosion problems as well, hunting can only be done outside of city limits and is mediated by the government, oiling the eggs must be timed well and requires a lengthy permit process. Some of the less effective methods can be used in conjunction with each other to wield desired results. For instance having a trained dog as well as a low wire fence. Doing nothing will result in the continued growth and expansion of Canada Geese populations.]]> Host contact: Cox, Rick]]> Department: Environmental and Resource Science/Studies]]> Proposal includes five components: Response Men's roup Program, Women's Support Group, Youth Prevention Group,School-Based Anti-Violence Workshops (YMCA),Evaluation/Public Education.

Moving on to Haliburton County, issues specific to holding such a festival locally are outlined by people involved in water resources management. These range from environmental concerns to those of water quality. The concepts being covered by the Leslie M. Frost Natural Resources Centre curriculum are identified as having significance to the area. Gaps in current programming and a study of existing sources for curriculum development are outlined. Finally, recommendations are made for further research as a Children's Water Festival is considered for the Haliburton area.]]> Host contact: Martin, Barrie]]> Department: Environmental and Resource Science/Studies]]>
