SEARCHING FOR SALAMANDERS
CVC’s Adam Wilford recently took a group of high school volunteers on a tour of a salamander monitoring site at Riverwood Conservancy in Mississauga. The students were part of the Conservation Youth Corps’ (CYC) ‘Frontline’ program. Frontline students are veteran CYC volunteers who have become ambassadors to their schools and take part in environmental workshops and experiences like this one.

"CYC helped build my knowledge of nature. I'm more aware of the space around me. The program showed me different ways to help my community. I got the chance to develop my leadership, communication and work habits."
Volunteer from Gordon Graydon S.S. (Mississauga)
"CYC helped me realize that I can make a difference and help our planet. I used to think that the small things didn't matter. Now I realize that there are others doing little things too and that all the little things combined make a difference."
Volunteer from Turner Fenton S.S. (Brampton)
"CYC hasn't changed my perspective on the environment as much as it has confirmed and enriched my perspective. I now have a deeper understanding of the balance of the environment and the need to maintain it."
Volunteer from Erindale S.S. (Mississauga)
