DESCRIPTION:Learn about Wetland’s water cleaning powers and use some of those strategies to become Eco-Sidekick in the battle for Earth’s Future! \nIf the forests are the lungs of the planet\, then the wetlands are the kidneys. They serve as super filters that allow for so many great things. Increased resistance to invasive species\, enhanced biodiversity\, mitigation of floods and drought\, carbon sinks\, and habitat for 1000’s of important animals\, reptiles\, amphibians\, birds\, insects\, crustaceans\, mollusks\, and other invertebrates.We will be doing water cleansing experiments based on what we can learn from wetlands and brainstorm some ways to use those techniques in the future. INTERESTING FACT: Estimates put 25 per cent of the world’s remaining marshes\, bogs\, swamps and other cattail-lined\, carbon-rich water bodies inside Canada’s borders. However\, they are being still being eliminated at an alarming rate. We need to get our big-brain environmental stewards of tomorrow on this immediately!If you could bring 1 or 2 small clear (like a small water bottle) plastic bottle (one for yourself and one to share) we will be building water filters. DO NOT go out a buy a plastic bottle (we do not want to encourage producers)\, just keep your eyes out on recycling day. It is even better if it has a top.

SUMMARY:Library After Dark with School House
DESCRIPTION:The Library After Dark fundraising concert series returns to the Perth & District Library with a concert featuring School House! \nThis summer event\, offered in partnership with Stewart Park Festival\, offers a chance for people who love music to see top notch artists in a unique\, alternative space and support the Perth & District Library.  \nSchool House is a folk band from Ottawa. After moving in together in 2021\, the three best friends discovered that their new home was a century-old school house — inspiring the name and giving them a dedicated space to create. They were awarded Group of the Year at the 2024 Ottawa Music Awards and their debut release was named Album of the Year by Ottawa Faces Magazine.\nTheir sound was born around a campfire\, taking turns sharing songs and joining in three-part harmony. They combine upbeat singalongs with emotive folk ballads to bring a wise\, yet youthful perspective to the Canadian folk music scene. Releasing their debut album in 2023 and an Acoustic EP in 2024; the band has amassed over 500k online streams.  \nDoors open at 8:30 pm and music starts at 9:00 pm. You can also enjoy a beverage from the cash bar during the show\, and spend intermission under the lights of the library garden! Thank you to Perth Brewery for the generous donation of beer! \nIn these final hours before the show\, tickets are now $15! Tickets are available for purchase here or at the door.

SUMMARY:Make our own Sock Puppet At-Risk Birds- Part 1
DESCRIPTION:We will first look at how human tools and bird beaks do similar jobs. Birds have adapted to their climates and habitats\, we see that reflected in their beaks\, and also their feet and plumage.With this knowledge\, each participant will choose a regional species of bird that are threatened. These birds will be the Horned Grebe\, the Barn Owl\, the Whippoorwill\, the Evening Grossbeak\, and the Northern Bob-white. Each child will receive a kit with the pieces to build their bird puppets. We will be working with hot glue guns\, so if you are not confident that your child can work with one safely\, you might want to join us for the workshop to assist them. Gloves will be provided. There is a maximum number of 10 participants for this workshop to make sure everyone’s project is successful.
