Living the Environment Conference 7


Our Katimavik volunteer is fantastic!

Meditation Workshop


This workshop took place on October 26th at first Unitarian Church Hamilton on Dundurn St. South.
We learned the basics of meditation with instructor Kelly Hilton.

About the Instructor:
Kelly Hilton’s experience in meditation began through yoga training in the Hindu community. Realizing
the many benefits of meditation, Kelly expanded her knowledge by attending numerous workshops and
retreats on topics including meditation philosophy, meditation as life-style, raw foodism, and pranayama
(breath control). Over the last 16 years, Kelly has maintained an intensive Ashtanga yoga practice.

Hamilton Naturalist Club

Sept-24th- Jen Baker came out from the Hamilton Naturalist Club and shared a talk with the youth group on how our youth group could work with the Naturalist club. She talked about habitat restoration, removing invasive species, documenting healthy trees and on the club's properties as possible volunteer and learning opportunities.
She talked about the North end project (restoring Nature in Hamilton's north end) that we could as a group help expand on- into a more naturalized area that would benefit the urban environment.

She also mentioned Falcon Watch and other programs they have. We are invited to go out on a hike to the sanctuaries and they can organize a bus ride.
