Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Ballantrae Golf Club, stating that it "is the first - and only - golf course in Canada to be designated an Audubon International Signature Sanctuary." Briefly discusses the creation of Audubon's Signature Co-operative Sanctuary program, stating that it "was created to provide a comprehensive approach to environmental planning and education for proposed developments, with a primary focus on sustainability." Discusses the construction of Ballantrae, stating that "Audubon was involved in the development of the 400-acre site right from the beginning." Lists components of the program, including the creation of wildlife corridors, efficient water use, and the role of the superintendent.
