  • Water Quality Monitoring of the Chedoke Creek Watershed Analytical Chemistry, Fall 2014, Redeemer University College
    Water Quality Monitoring of the Chedoke Creek Watershed Analytical Chemistry, Fall 2014, Redeemer University College What we did and why: The lab portion of our analytical chemistry course focused on monitoring the quality of water at different locations throughout the Chedoke Creek watershed which drains into Cootes Paradise (highlighted in blue in the map below). Over the past decades, significant efforts have gone into restoring Cootes Paradise to its original wetland, in hopes that plants, fish, birds, and other wildlife may thrive and flourish. However, Cootes Paradise suffers from a number of environmental stressors, including sewage contamination and excess nutrients coming from the wider watershed which can cause eutrophication, a condition in which there is undesirable algae growth and depletion of dissolved oxygen in the water. The Chedoke Creek and its tributaries run through a highly urbanized area of Hamilton and are known to be contaminated with sewage likely caused by cross-connections between sanitary and storm sewers in homes on Hamilton Mountain. By monitoring the water quality at specific locations within the watershed, we hope to raise awareness of this issue as well as to provide further information to quantify the problem and identify particular problem areas so that the City of Hamilton can continue to address this complex issue. How often and where: Throughout the semester, samples were collected on six occasions from five sites throughout the Chedoke Creek watershed, all along the Niagara Escarpment and easily accessible from the Chedoke Radial Trail (Bruce Trail). These sites included Scenic Falls, Princess Falls, Mountview Falls, Westcliffe & Cliffview Falls, and Chedoke Falls (see map below).

  • The History of the 26Th Hamilton Scout Group
    THE HISTORY OF THE 26th HAMILTON SCOUT GROUP PART I: The First Thirty Years (1924 - 1954) by Harry "Chief" Bryant PART II: The Second Thirty Years (1954 - 1984) edited by Ron Fulton and Trev Thomson This History of the 26th is one of the few project which Chief undertook in his lifetime but was unable to complete before his death. The Anniversary Committee, with the support of the Group Committee undertook, with the co-operation of many present and former members, to complete Chief's project. This has been done to honour Chief and to mark the 60th anniversary of the group. This History is provided, as part of the registration, to those attending the 60th Anniversay celebrations. It will be made available at minimal cost to others as supplies last. The committee wishes to express its sincere appreciation to Mrs Audrey Kershaw for retyping Part 1 of this history. HISTORY OF THE 26th HAMILTON SCOUT GROUP Over the years I have often heard Scouts say, "Why don't you write a book, Chief?" I have also been asked by the Group Committee to set down a history of the days of the 26th or, having been with them a few years, I guess a lot of my recollections will be lost when the time comes to say "good-bye and good Scouting" for the final time. This did not start out to be a history of myself, but I am afraid that I find it hard to separate my own time from the 26th, as through the years, outside of the hours spent at work (that seemed to be necessary to keep a roof over my head, and food on my table), my life was the 26th.
