Today
we went to the dump. It was a bit depressing to see where all our trash goes
but it also makes you aware of the fact that there is a problem and it needs to
be addressed. The dump was just one of the many fun things we have done. On Monday
we went kayaking. On Tuesday we went to stow lake and pulled out the none
native plants. On Wednesday we went to the water treatment plant to see where
all the water we waste goes. It was so SMELLY that I thought I
was going to faint. It was still fun though. On Thursday we split up into two
groups half of us went to glide and half of us went to SPAWN. I went to SPAWN.
SPAWN stands for Salmon Protection and Water shed Network. We helped save an
endangered species of Salmon. When it rains the rain picks up dirt and then
goes into the river/creek. The dirt settles and then it suffocates the eggs. We
dug holes on the hill so the rain would get caught in them. Then we planted
plants in the holes so they would soak up the water. I learned that the salmon only
live about three years. Altogether leaf has been really fun and I hope I
can come back next year.
Thanks LEAF,
