SUMMARY:COMOX VALLEY
DESCRIPTION:Kus-Kus-Sum Site Restoration Project\n\nCaila Holbrook from Project Watershed will introduce us to the salt marsh and nearby habitats of the Courtenay Estuary\, and the Kus-Kus-Sum project\, which aims to restore the old field sawmill site to a natural state. Caila is used to hosting school groups and has some activities prepared for the kids that will help them understand the value of natural as opposed to hardened environments for wildlife.\n\nPlease RSVP if you plan to attend – either by email or on the Facebook page so we have a general sense of numbers.\n\nPlease Bring\nAs we will be going down into the mud flats\, please bring appropriate shoes (you may like to bring footwear for the mudflats and then a change for when we are doing the activities up at the Kus Kus Sum site). Please also bring sunscreen\, hats\, etc. and otherwise be prepared for the weather. I will be providing a donation to the Kus-Kus-Sum project to thank Caila for her program. While there is no requirement to do so\, if you’d like to consider an additional small donation\, I’m sure that would be welcomed as Kus Kus Sum is an active fundraising project. Check it out at: https://projectwatershed.ca/estuary-stewardship/fields-sawmill-kuskussum/\n\nDirections\nKus-Kus-Sum Site (old Fields Sawmill site near the 17th St. Bridge). Caila will open the gates to the old Field Saw Mill Site on Comox Road\, just south (towards Comox) of the 17th st. Bridge. Go through the gates and park on the property. It is not recommended to turn left into the gates if you are coming from Comox. Instead\, you’ll want to access the gates from the right hand side of the road given the heavy traffic typically in that area.

SUMMARY:VANCOUVER
DESCRIPTION:Second Annual Singing!\n \nSinging Explorer Day is back! In celebration of summer solstice and World Music Day\, Vancouver Club member Elana and her son Tobias\, and Club co-leader Leslie will be leading us in song. All songs will be taught by call and response so no prior singing experience is needed. Also\, please bring your own song choices that can be shared with the group. \nLocation: Oak Meadows Park is at the northeast corner of Oak St. and 37th Ave. We will meet by the insect hotel at the entrance to the park on 37th Ave. This park is a great place to look for pollinators as well\, especially if it’s sunny. \nDress for the weather\, and perhaps bring something to sit on in case the grass is wet.
