MEDIA RELEASE:  Junction Creek Stewardship Committee Trout Release and 15 year anniversary

Please come out and join the Junction Creek Stewardship Committee in
celebrating 15 years of environmental community engagement!

The JCSC is celebrating their 15 year anniversary,  Saturday, May 24th at
the Adanac Ski Hill from 11am to 2pm and would love if you can come out
and celebrate with us!

 The festivities will begin with the trout release at 11am, but the fun
does not end there... There will be live music, planting, a BBQ lunch and
free cake, bug identification, game, turtles and much more!

The Junction Creek Stewardship Committee (JCSC) was formed in 1999 with
the mission to “restore all life to the Junction Creek ecosystem: native
wildlife, insect and plant life, and to improve the quality of life for
humans as well.”

The JCSC has been reintroducing brook trout into the waterway in
partnership with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources since 2000.
The hatchery-raised trout are provided as a donation from the OMNR.
Members of the public are asked to keep an eye out for brook trout in the
stream, and to let the group know if they see one.

The survival and the distribution of these fish depend on the health of
Creek. Since the first release there have been trout spotted in many areas
of the Creek which were once uninhabitable.
Please see attached invitation poster and for more information or visit us

Stewardship Committee and its initiatives.

About the Sudbury Working Group

The Sudbury working-group of The Media Co-op was formed to create independent media in the North, to speak to our issues and outlooks on our communities as well as the world around us. Independent media provides an avenue for people who are wishing to gain critical perspective on the issues that matter most to us, and to give a voice to those people and stories that you won't find in the mainstream media.
