BCWF: Map Our Marshes Workshop

May 10, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

The BC Wildlife Federation’s Wetlands Education Program presents Map our Marshes, a free public workshop. Wetlands can filter water, mitigate flooding, and provide critical habitat to hundreds of species. Unfortunately, wetlands are disappearing at an alarming rate and need our protection.

Come join us to learn about the different types of wetlands and how to map and protect them using GPS receivers, Google Earth, and BC’s Community Mapping Network. No previous experience is necessary.

Weather permitting, there may also be an ATV ride out to our field location. Stay tuned for more details.
