| My name is Bernadette Weaver and I am an honor student at Almaguin Highlands Secondary School. This is my first year in high school and I have had a great year. Science and math continue to be my favorite subjects. I enjoy many sports and play on my school basketball and volleyball teams. After years of figure skating I decided to switch to girl’s hockey this year. It was a great season and I am looking forward to summer hockey. During my free time, when not playing sports, I like to read and paint. This is my second trip to CWSF and I am honored to be representing my region again. |

The results show that consumers need to be aware of the products that they purchase and the effect that the products may have on septic systems and the environment. |
