Introduction
The Alberta/NWT project is taking off! The Living by Water Project products being
developed for BC are gradually being developed for Alberta. Alberta versions of the
Childrens Quiz and Activity Sheet, the Waterfront Living and Healthy Shorelines
Brochures, and the Homesite Assessment , Shoreline Ambassador, and Workshop-In-A-Box
Manuals are now available. The Alberta Shoreline Celebration and Restoration Month info
kits are also still available. Watch for the publication of the Alberta/BC Shoreline
Celebration and Restoration Event Planning Manual and the On the Living Edge: Your
Handbook for Waterfront Living in 2001.
Past Events
Precipice Theatre - Summer Tour - "Splash
and Ripple"
Congratulations to Precipice Theatre of Banff, Alberta for a successful BC and
Alberta run. Over the summer months, the musical comedy "Splash and Ripple - Along
the Ribbon" was performed in 28 different communities. This play was commissioned
by The Living by Water Project and was developed by the renowned eco-theatre society,
Precipice Theatre.
Environmental education has never been so fun! Click here to see some photos
of the Precipice gang in action at the Whyte Museum in Banff.
We will be working to develop the Theatre-In-A-Box Legacy Kit. This kit will be
a portable, adaptable "Splash and Ripple" play for young people. Watch
this space for new developments!
Sylvan Lake Stewardship Association Workshops
As part of a set of workshops for summer village councillors and waterfront residents,
the Sylvan Lake Stewardship Association invited Clive Callaway, co founder of The Living
by Water Project and three other guests to speak at this August 12-14 event.
Thanks to organizer Janet Remillards efforts more than 100 people attended the
workshops and six Homesite Assessments were done. Whats more, Janet and a team of
dedicated workers and volunteers, obtained 375 shoreline conservation pledges from local
waterfront residents! Much thanks to Janet, her volunteers and the Sylvan Lake Stewardship
Association for exemplifying what shoreline ambassadorship is all about.
