BLACK CREEK PIONEER VILLAGE
-Educational Programmes
A staff report was presented ac'lvising that the reduction of $58,000 in the
Municipal Levy portion of the 1981 Budget Estimates is the supplementary funding
for the guided Educational Tours and the Pioneer Life Programme at the Black Creek
Pioneer Village To meet existing 1981 conuni tments to June 26, the following
action has been taken
1 March 30 to April 16, 1981
Black Creek Pioneer Village was open 5 days per week, Monday to Friday,
with no guided Educational Tours provided
Groups were encouraged to come and were booked into the Village, as
many of the buildings were staffed wiLh artisans and interpreters
The theme of this period was "Cooking with Maple Syrup"
2. April 21 to June 12, 1981
Regular guided Educational Tours are available, enabling the Author i ty
to meet its commitments
3. June 15 to June 26, 1981
An enriched tour visitation programme will be offered and funded within
the revenues received
The budget re-allocation from the Exl11ibit Programme and the 2,5th Anniversary
Programme. in thf amount of. $23,000 " combined with fee revenue, will permit the
guided Educationill 'rours, the Pioneer' Life Programme, and related supervisory costs
to continue to JJne 30, 19~.).
t j
The fall!. prograrnme does not have supplementary funding available at this time, thus
pr even t " ng a conuni tment to the regular guided Educational Tours, the Christmas
programrr.e, the Pioneer Li fe PrograllUne, and their associated supervisory costs
The staff believes that every effort should be made to provide services to sustain
or increase visitations to Black Creek Pioneer Village by schools and other groups
The alternatives to sustain or increase the Educational programmes in the fall, in
order of priority, are
(1) re-allocation of sufficient Authority funds to accommodate the group
visitation programme to the extent of the demand:
(2 ) developnent of guic'led ec'lucational tours and an enriched tour visit-
ation programme either with existing revenue or through increased
fees
A commitment was made to the Executive Committee, at Meeting #2/81, he 1<1 March 4,
1981, to study and develop a proposal for both the fall of 1981 and on-going
educational prograrnmes at Black Creek Pioneer Village, and to make recommendations
prior to the end of MiJY, 1981
The staff is currently finalizing a draft report which envisages a comprehensive
educational programme financed on the same basis as the other Authority
Conservation Education Programmes, whereby revenues from the educational services
sustain the direct operating and maintenance costs of the programme itself, with
the Authority providing the area and facility free of charge

Department, the possibility of incorporating a period of study for these students
at the Boyd Conservation Field Centre, in the biolog ical sciences, and he has

Due to the fact that all funding provided in the preliminary budget had to be
re-a110cated to sustain the Educational Programs for April, May and June of 1981,
there are no funas available for any more 25th anniversary programs It is
recommended that ther-:! be a tie-in with the 25th anniversary in many of our
regular programs, such as
- do a series of articles - re 25 years of the Authority;
- put "25th" on posters and tie the anniversary in with press
releases, where possihle;
- 1981 Directory - to be printed on silver caver marked "25th
Annual Directory";
- 25th Annual Pioneer Festival at Black Creek Pioneer Village:
- a 25-year report (silver cover) for February, 1982:
- Foundation should note the Authority's 25th anniversary in
correspondence;

Garden Party, Wat0rshed Tour and Barbecue, Official Openings, etc :

SCHEDULE "c"
TO The ~hairman of the Information (, Education Advisory Board,
Meet~ng 12/81 - Thursday, September 17, 1981
FROM Mrs. Lois James, Save the Rouge Valley Association
In looking over the news release issued June 4, 1981,
on the Conservation and Environmental Summer course at the
Albion Hills Conservation Field Centre, an idea came to mind
which you may want to consider
- a course for landowners, given in their own
neighborhood, to have them become partners in
the work of conservation and environmental
protection on the various watersheds
I talked to David Wood, course Director at York University,
and he was very supportive of the idea and encouraged me to talk
to you
We would be pleased to talk to someone about this idea and to
offer our Conservation Groups Community List on the Rouge Valley
if it would be useful
You may count on the help of the "Save the Rouge Valley Association"
in any way for such a pilot project
Lois James
Corresponding Secretary
Save the Rouge Valley Association
