Lower Watershed Field Trips
Kus-kus-sum Fieldtrip Volunteers
We are taking a group of grade 7 students to the Kus-kus-sum site to learn about estuary ecology and function and assist with planting and plant maintenance. We are looking for volunteers to help facilitate this event by assisting students in completing different activities including planting, plant maintenance, plant identification, and water testing. Training provided!
Spring Education Program and Field Trips
Project Watershed’s “Students Keeping It Living in the Comox Valley” education and engagement program has been met with a huge amount of interest this year as over 50 classes were eager to participate. With funds from TD Friends of the Environment, Peninsula COOP, BC Gaming and Habitat Conservation Trust Fund (link each), we hope to be able to offer our program to 30 of these classes (over 600 students) this spring.
Field Trip Assistants
We are looking for volunteers to assist with environmental education field trips.
