CV Naturalists are sponsoring a BC Nature Summer Camp in Strathcona Provincial Park from Friday July 15 to Tuesday July 19. Participants will be accommodated at Strathcona Park Lodge at Upper Campbell Lake bordering the heart of the park. All meals are provided at the Lodge. Planning is underway for a full program of walking, hiking, birding, botany, swimming, and education about the park and the area, as well as special presentations & activities.
2011 is the 100th anniversary of Strathcona Park so it is fitting that we have a camp focussed on the oldest park in the BC Parks system. Registration will be limited to 24 participants and opens on April 1. Cost for the full program will be $600 shared occupancy. Watch for the next issue of BC Nature magazine for registration information.
The organizers are looking for a couple of naturalists who are willing to volunteer some time on Saturday (July 16) or Sunday (July 17) to assist with birding and botany on the daily hikes. Contact Pam Munroe through our contact page if you are interested.
