Coming Up

Our monthly meetings are a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and hear from a variety of guest speakers on a wide range of topics related to nature. They're held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month, from September to June, from 7pm to 9pm. Everyone is welcome!

***PLEASE NOTE!***

Our meeting location has changed. We now meet in the hall adjacent to Our Lady of Mercy Church, 196 Bridge St. W., Bancroft. ​

We also schedule regular outings, (usually monthly), giving members the opportunity to explore nature together, gain experience, learn and share knowledge. Join us and discover the wonders of Nature!

Our season starts off with our September meeting, "Getting to Know Wolves", on the15th at 7pm.

Wolf Awareness is a non-profit organization established in 1987 dedicated to wolf conservation through research and education. Sadie Parr has been involved with the organization since 2014, conducting non-invasive research, promoting coexistence, and advocating for science-based wolf conservation. Sadie will discuss wolf biology and behaviour, and the important role wolves play in maintaining healthy, resilient ecosystems. She will explore how habitat loss, outdated policies, and persistent misconceptions continue to threaten wolves, who remain largely unprotected in Canada. At a time of global biodiversity loss and declining large-predator populations, Ontario has a unique opportunity to protect genetically diverse wild wolves as an integral part of functioning ecosystems.

Please see www.wolfawareness.org for additional information. We'd love to see you on the 15th!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This month's outing will take place on Wednesday, 23rd September*, when we head to McGeachie Conservation Area for a nature hike. There are many walking trails throughout the property, taking in a creek, beaver ponds, wildlife and acres of wetlands. The Fall colours should be near their peak, so bring your camera! We'll meet at the Bancroft Post Office at 9:30am and arrange car pooling. *Raindate September 25th.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
