<FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>As I think I already told you, the headwater hikes project has been approved. They are planning to include one from our area even though we are outside of the official greenbelt. When they draw this up it will make a nice addition to our website.<BR>
<BR>
Do you have any ideas of hikes in our area that would show school children and the public areas that need headwater protection? What would you recommend as a prime candidate? <BR>

<FONT COLOR="#1F497D">Hi all,<BR>
<BR>
We now have a signed contract with the Friends of the Greenbelt Foundation to identify and develop ten Headwater Hikes across the Greenbelt. Thanks again for your expressions of interest in and support for the project.<BR>
<BR>
Work begins after Labour Day with some revisions to the website to reflect the project, an e-mail newsletter from the OHI to announce the project and other fall/winter OHI initiatives, and collaboration with others to similarly spread the word. <BR>
<BR>
Specific opportunities to further publicize the project will take place Sept 12 at a meeting of the Ontario Greenbelt Alliance; Sept 13 on the Credit River Alliance / Credit Valley Conservation meeting and train tour of the Credit; and when the OHI leads a tour at Purple Woods Conservation Area on Sept 28 with the STORM / Earthroots / Ontario Nature / Ecospark collaborative effort on the Greenbelt review. I imagine I will see some of you there.<BR>
<BR>
<B>I’d like to chat with each of you next week, and move forward to begin identifying and doing a preliminary assessment of candidate Hikes. I hope to walk each proposed Hike asap - alone or with you or one of your members as preferred / convenient.<BR>
</B> <BR>
As I’ve mentioned in conversation with most of you, I think we need about 15 candidate partners and candidate Hikes and believe that this core group of the eight of you should provide six to eight of the Hikes. If we end of with 11, 12, or 13 – that would be fine. No good candidate Hikes will be overlooked. We can either simply deliver 13 through the funded project, or deliver 3 outside of the project. <BR>
<BR>
I wish you a wonderful long weekend and look forward to chatting with you next week.<BR>
<BR>
