    WHITHER GOEST THOU.... EDITORIAL READERS, THLS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO YOU - THE STUDENTS OF THE GRA DE PRAlRIE JU 1IOR COLLEGE DURING THE 1968-' 69 SESSION. IT IS NOT O LY A COLLECTION OF MEMORIES, BUT GREATER STILL, A SYMBOL OF YOUR LAUNCH INTO THE WORLD. IT IS POI TLESS TO REVIEW THE YEAR I TERMS OF WORDS; SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, HERE IT IS - YOUR YEARBOOK. SINCERELY, BARB and AN E (EDITOR and CO-EDITOR) GRANDE PRAIRIE LIBRARY JUN IOR COLLEGE GRANDE PRAIRIE JUNIOR COLLEGE'S DEAN ANDERSON DEAN'S MESSAGE The stated objective of the College is to develop as a regional post-secondary institution with a variety of educational programs designed for students with differing aspirations, interests, and background preparation. The past aca­ demic year saw business education programs and an expanded set of courses in adult occupational training added to the offerings of the College, as an extension to the University and matriculation programs which had been estab­ lished. The result of these additions was reflected in a broader cross section of students, and a greater diversity of interests to provide for in student life. The range and the complexity of demands on students, and the difficulty in providing the necessary facilities and spaces, produced problems for the student body, and the student government. A continuing problem, while our programs are scattered in different sections of the city, will be to provide a common identity for all students as members of the same institution. I have been very pleased with the co-operation and good will which characterized the response of the students to the limitations which were imposed on us in the past year, which was a critical period in our development.

  • Beaverlodge Riparian Conservation
    Alberta Conservation Association 2013/14 Project Summary Report Project Name: Beaverlodge Riparian Conservation Land Management Program Manager: Darren Dorge Project Leader: Ed Kolodychuk Primary ACA staff on project: Melissa Buskas, Ed Kolodychuk, Lenore Stone and Jennifer Straub Partnerships ConocoPhillips County of Grande Prairie Cows and Fish Penn West West County Watershed Society Key Findings • Completed two riparian health inventories. • Completed six short-form riparian health assessments. • Completed bi-annual water sampling; results showed several parameters exceeded recommended water quality guidelines. • Local, landowner-driven West County Watershed Society continues to lead the identification of future project sites and activities. Introduction A survey completed in 2002 documented riparian habitat degradation along the Beaverlodge River and two of its tributaries, Beavertail and Steeprock creeks (Hallett 2003). Degraded riparian habitat is primarily attributed to livestock grazing, watering, feedlot operations, vehicle fording, land clearing and instream alterations. Since 2004, Alberta Conservation Association (ACA), in partnership with landowners, provincial and municipal governments, and other conservation groups, has delivered riparian restoration and conservation projects along these watercourses, including streambank fencing, alternative livestock watering systems and tree planting. In 2013/14, ACA continued to develop riparian protection and enhancement projects with landowners, monitor riparian health and water quality,
