Scope and content
Subseries consists of records of the Junior Audubon Club, which was a club for children interested in nature and wildlife preservation. The material includes a record book consisting of the lists of schools and teachers involved in the Club, meeting minutes and bird club statistical records. In 1986, this club partnered with the Royal Botanical Gardens to form the Hamilton Junior Naturalists’ Club to instill in children a life-long appreciation and respect for the environment and the natural world. This subserie also includes photographs from the Junior Club program Worm Watch that took place at the Royal Botanical Gardens Nature Centre in 2000.
