Ontario Envirothon
Our Youth are the Future!
Ontario Envirothon is a program for high school students aimed at increasing their understanding of key environmental concepts in the fields of forestry, soils, wildlife and aquatics. In addition, each year there is a special presentation topic. In 2025 the theme will be Roots and Resiliency: Fostering Forest Stewardship .
Information and Registration is coordinated through Forests Canada.
Stewardship Grey Bruce wants to encourage and enthuse our local youth about the environment!
We will help local Envirothon teams by:
-
helping with funds to support your team registration with Forests Canada;
-
providing you with tools to succeed;
-
and organizing the hands-on Regional GREY BRUCE Competition.
When is the Regional Competition?
The one-day Grey Bruce Regional Competition will be held at MacGregor Point Provincial Park on April 23, 2025. Registration assistance may be available through Stewardship Grey Bruce. Contact stewardshipgreybruce@gmail.com for further information.

Youth Outdoors EXPO
The Youth Outdoors EXPO believes that youth, aged 10 - 17, have a keen interest in outdoor activities but need opportunities to be introduced to them in a "hands on" manner. While attending the Youth Outdoors EXPO at the Sydenham Sportsmen's Association clubhouse, youth participate in several outdoor activities and learn the values of and appreciation for our natural heritage. Some of the activities they may be involved in include hunting, fishing, environmental science and nature appreciation. The day is free for youths and includes a BBQ lunch. Spaces are limited and pre-registration for this free event is required. For more information or to register, stewardshipgreybruce@gmail.com Include Youth EXPO in the title of the email.
