NBCLT Information Sessions
The New Brunswick Community Land Trust (NBCLT) will be hosting a series of information sessions concerning conservation tools available to farmers and woodlot owners interested in keeping their land in sustainable, healthy production for future generations. These working lands conservation easements allow landowners to maintain ownership and production of their land while protecting all or part of their land from certain development and/or activities (ie: subdivision, clearcutting, ect...). These voluntary agreements are developed jointly by the land owner and NBCLT and are specific to each individual and their situation. The NBCLT is the only group in N.B. to offer this kind of working land conservation tool and we want to get the word out to farmers and woodlot owners who may be interested in learning more about the specifics of working land conservation easements.

Vote for Marshview Middle School
Parks Canada held a video contest this year for Grade 8 students (Canada's Coolest School Trip). The prize is a class trip to Banff National Park for 4 days, 3 nights.
Marshview Middle School in Sackville, NB submitted an excellent video about Fort Beausejour, NB.
Voting begins February 1, 2012, until February 21, 2012. The top 10 videos will be selected by public votes. Then will go to a jury.
All of the videos can be seen here: http://www.myparkspass.ca/video-gallery I suggest watching," L'Histoire de Belle", made by Marshview Middle School in French, English and Mi'kmaq. It is the only entry from School District 2.
Please encourage your friends, family, students, and contacts to vote often at www.myparkspass.ca. There needs to be a concerted effort to place a school, from a small population area, onto the national map.
