The Strategic Plan 2003-2007
Now we have developed a plan for the next 5 years, though the vision remains: "to use Willow Park Ecology Centre to educate and inform students and the general public in Halton Hills about ecological and environmental matters and to continue to provide a place for passive recreation for residents and visitors alike."
This vision will be realized through the following objectives:
- Increase awareness of nature's fragility and the role humans play in its protection
- Illustrate the interrelationships (interactions and interdependence) between man and nature,
- Encourage people to interact positively with nature; e.g. help people learn to act in a responsible and caring way about their environment
- Help people understand how to achieve a balance between human activity and the natural environment
Park Master Plan 1999
In 1999, a Master Plan was prepared to guide the initial construction of the Ecology Centre.
The Master Plan set the following goals:
- Create a community facility, designed, maintained and used by a wide cross-section of the residents of the Town.
- Create a setting to enhance outdoor education for schools in the community.
- Create a node for the interpretation of the ecology of the Hungry Hallow Management Area.
