Blackville School, ASD-N students who are participating on the ASDN North Shore Legacy 80th Anniversary of Juno placed salmon flies on gravesites to remember the fallen soldiers. The pattern tied was the Veteran Fly, which was created by Jenna Tucker. Each colour, chosen by Jenna, has a symbolic meaning to veterans: purple represents sorrow for the fallen soldiers; red and white for the Canadian flag; green for a soldiers uniform; gold for the medals awarded to a soldier; red for the petals of a poppy and black for the centre of a poppy. Many thanks to Sydney Matchett from Trout Fly Shop for tying these flies.

And we are off... next stop Cains River! The Outdoor Education 110 students are in for an amazing canoeing/camping/fishing experience on the Cains. Many thanks to the Deparrment of Natural Resources for providing us with an angling permit where many of these students will fly fish for the first time ... hoping to hook into a majestic sea run Brook trout. No better classroom over the next two days.
