Cardston Elementary School in conjunction with the Town of Cardston and Trout Unlimited Canada will be working on the Yellow Fish Road Program.
 
Students from the Grade 4 Science classes of Carol Johnson, Dienna Quinton, Michelle Quinton and Leslie Dittmann will be out marking the storm sewer intakes with Yellow Fish.
 
These Fish are there to remind people that all our storm drains feed directly into Lee Creek and eventually into the St. Mary’s River and hopefully deter them from putting any pollutants
 
in or around the storm drains that could harm the fish population.
 
Storm drain pollution can increase with each new home owner, car buyer or road built. The easily understandable message of the Yellow Fish Road program needs to be continuously reinforced
by volunteers to tens of thousands of Canadians each year. Congratulations to all of those who increased awareness in 82 cities/communities across the country this year.
 
We remind all motorists to be aware of this project and watch for the students who will be supervised by teachers and parents on October 5 and 6, 2010.
 
This is going to be a great learning opportunity for these young students.
