September 1, 2000, minor modifications in January 2004 The Bison Economy The earliest economic activity in the Lethbridge area can be traced back at least 11,500 years, the earliest date of stone artifacts found in Southern Alberta. By 5000 BC hunting and gathering cultures were killing and butchering bison at cliff sites in the foothills such as the Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, some 70 kilometers to the west of the present-day Lethbridge. The absence of large concentrations of stone implements at any single location in Southern Alberta suggests a nomadic Aboriginal lifestyle. -

Watershed Stewardship in Alberta: a Directory of Stewardship Groups, Support Agencies, and Resources
WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA: A DIRECTORY OF STEWARDSHIP GROUPS, SUPPORT AGENCIES AND RESOURCES APRIL 2005 INTRODUCTION FOREWORD This directory of WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA has been designed to begin a process to meet the needs of individuals, stewardship groups, and support agencies (including all levels of government, non- governmental organizations, and industry). From recent workshops, surveys, and consultations, community- based stewards indicated a need to be better connected with other stewards doing similar work and with supporting agencies. They need better access to information, technical assistance, funding sources, and training in recruiting and keeping volunteers. Some groups said they felt isolated and did not have a clear sense that the work they were doing was important and appreciated by society. A number of steps have occurred recently that are beginning to address some of these concerns. The Alberta Stewardship Network, for example, has been established to better connect stewards to each other and to support agencies. Collaboration with other provincial and national networks (e.g. Canada’s Stewardship Communities Network) is occurring on an on-going basis. Internet-based information sites, such as the Stewardship Canada Portal (www.stewardshipcanada.ca), are being established to provide sources of information, linkages to key organizations, and newsletters featuring success stories and progress being made by grassroots stewards. These sites are being connected provincially and nationally to keep people informed with activities across Canada. The focus of this directory is on watershed stewardship groups working in Alberta. The term ‘watershed’ is inclusive of all stewardship activities occurring on the landscape, be they water, air, land, or biodiversity-based. -
