The CRCA provides
programs in conjunction with the learning expectations of the
Ontario Ministry of Education. The outdoors is a highly stimulating
environment. Students become involved through direct first hand
experiences and thereby attain a deeper understanding of the subject.
Located 3 km north of Brockville and two kilometres
east off Highway 29, Mac Johnson Wildlife Area includes 532 hectares
of wetland, field, and forest. The reservoir located on this property
maintains water levels for the Buells Creek System, which flows
through the Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley and the City of Brockville.
The reservoir is also a Class-1 provincially significant wetland
with a high diversity of plant and animal life.
