It's that time of year again when SCG&F members volunteer to assist the MNRF with egg collection on the Credit River. I will be departing from the clubhouse at 7:30am on Thursday October 6th and will have room for 5 passengers in my van. If preferred, you can drive yourself or car pool with others. You can also make arrangements directly with Jake to attend another scheduled day. If you are interested please email me by Thursday September 29th to allow sufficient time for the MNRF to manage staff scheduling.

Here is the MNRF outline
The folks at Normandale Fish Culture station are gearing up for another wild egg collection on the Credit River again this year… And we are looking for hard working Volunteers!!
The plan is as follows:
Week of September 26th we will be moving our trailer, portable toilets, gabion baskets and other equipment to the Ardent Mill site at Streetsville.
Collection Dates:
Week One
Day 1 –Tues October 4th – set up & collection day (LOMU + Hatchery staff)
Day 2- Wed October 5th– Egg Collection (Fleming College on site)
Day 3- Thurs Oct 6th– Egg Collection
Week two:
Day 4 Oct 11th – Egg Collection
Day 5 Oct 12th – Egg Collection
Weather dates will be added as needed
This year’s collection should take 4-5 days to complete
Fleming college will not be able to help this year due conflicting schedules with field camp.
The following are a few points regarding this year’s collection....
- The location of the egg collection on the Credit River in Streetsville at the Ardent Mills Mill site located at 27 Reid Dr Mississauga ON L5M 2B1
- MNR will be on site at 8:30am
- volunteers to be there at 9am (if this time will be a problem please let me know)
- All persons MUST be a minimum of 18 years of age to be on the Mondelez/Kraft property
- we must sign-in with security at the entry gate guard house to Kraft/Mondelez Food Mill (temporary parking to sign in is behind the guard house)
- Photo ID ( e.g. driver’s license) may be requested by security at the main gate
IMPORTANT:
This Mill site is a "peanut free" location - no peanuts or peanut products are allowed.
· Please read the attached Declaration form (this form was provided to me by the Ardent Mills site Manager) “Peanut Free and Tree Nut Free Declaration & Agreement to Comply” Form. This form will need to be signed by everyone prior to entry. I will provide a copy for you to sign & email to Jake.
· I would like to have signed & dated copies of the Declaration form returned to me prior to your day at the River – either Scan and return to my email (jake.ruegg@ontario.ca) or fax to 519-426-3144
- After sign-in please go directly to the egg collection site (park behind the pylons at the river)
- safety instruction by MNR to start by 9:15am
- the egg collection lasts until approx. 1:30pm
NOTE: If you have your own waders and polarized sunglasses please bring them with you, we do have extras but having your own will assist us in meeting the needs of others.
