The Elmvale Water Festival 2009The Elmvale Foundation is proud to announce that the featured speaker for the 2009 Elmvale Water Festival is Chris Wood. A veteran journalist, Chris Wood’s latest book, Dry Spring: The Coming Water Crisis of North America, shows how climate change is already casting a long shadow over our global and local water supply. Wood dismisses the concern of many activists, who believe the U.S. poses a threat to Canada ’s water. Instead, he argues the biggest threat to our water is how we manage it. Wood will inspire you to think differently about something you take for granted everyday.Other speakers include Laurie Schutt, Director of Wye Marsh, Derek Mueller, Canadian Ice Services, and Elmvale Foundation founder Dr. William Shotyk. In addition, Ian Connacher’s film Addicted to Plastic will be shown at this year’s festival. The date for the Festival has been set for Saturday August 22, 2009. The event will also include entertainment, food and fun for all family members. The call for volunteers and sponsors for this years event has gone out. Please book the date and plan to attend. We protect what we value, we value what we understand.
