We wanted to express our gratitude to the efforts of our volunteers, including our Board of Directors. They put in over 2300 hours of volunteer time in 2022 – from hands-on stewardship and outreach, to strategic planning, meetings and administration, showing their passion for nature and dedication to the BLPA and Burnaby Lake Regional Park. THANK YOU!
Join the Burnaby Lake Park Association and folk from the TD Tree Days organization in the Metro Vancouver EcoBlitz as we continue work to rehabilitate the forest edge near the Cariboo Dam in an area we are calling the Lenson Field. The first EcoBlitz was held in 2014 and was a one day event across the Metro Vancouver Regional Parks System to give an opportunity for the community to lend a helping hand to nature and show a little extra love to our Regional Park.
Again this year, we are grateful to TD Tree Days for awarding the grant used to fund the purchase of the native species being planted. To find out more about TD Tree Days, click here.
On October 20, we are enlarging the area we planted 2018. Those of you who have been out to Weedbusters at the site this summer have made this planting possible by preparing the site. Join us as we plant native species and clean up any wayward weeds if needed. Remember to dress for the weather, wear sturdy and water proof shoes or boots, rain pants, jackets and a hat if needed. We’ll provide the gloves, tools and snacks! Ages 8+
Keep an eye on our social media closer to the event so you can be kept up to date with any changes due to weather or for any additional information.
If you have any questions, please contact Ann at info@burnabylakepark.ca.
