Back to School!
Posted by Jeff Hathaway on September 7, 2009 at 3:12 PM
The Reptiles at Risk on the Road project is a year-round effort. Even though the children may not be looking forward to returning to the books and homework associated with school, perhaps an entourage of Ontario snakes and turtles will cheer them up! As summer ends there are many changes happening. Robin (summer coordinator extraorinaire) has returned to school herself, leaving the program in the (hopefully) capable hands of myself. My name is Megan, and I'm a turtle researcher! Or at least I was. I just completed my masters degree at Laurentian University studying the endangered Spotted Turtle. I hope to continue the fabulous work that has already been accomplished by the Reptiles at Risk on the Road Project. My targets are schools! We want to provide our free outreach programs to any grade 6 through 8 classes that will have us. So check your newsletters, because we may be visiting your school this fall! Are you interested in having us come to your school?? Give us a call (705-327-2353) and hopefully we can work something out.
