SUMMARY:Conservation Saturday (Boreal Ecology Centre\, MB)
DESCRIPTION:WHO: We’re looking for willing volunteers who care about creation and nature conservation. Skills and knowledge are an asset\, but all knowledge levels are welcome! \nWHAT: Graham (Conservation Science Coordinator) will be leading the group in a forest biodiversity monitoring day. We have set up some permanent monitoring sites to record the plant biodiversity for the area and overtime continue to observe how species diversity is changing. We’ll be working in a 20m×20m area recording a tree stem map\, and narrowing in to several 5m×5m sites observing shrubs and 1m×1m sites observing ground vegetation. \nWHEN: July 3 evening – July 4\, 4:00 pm (overnight optional) \nExperience identifying Manitoba plants is an asset but not required to participate.\n \nThe work will be contributing to:\n1. Setting a baseline understanding of the biodiversity of the forest\n2. Determining the health of the forest (do we see lots of thriving species or less so)\n3. Understanding the succession is part of a healthy forest we want to see how the forest is\ngrowing and changing \nWHERE: The Boreal Ecology Centre\, 81025 Boggy River Rd.\, East Braintree\, MB \nWHAT TO BRING:\nEssentials: bag lunch (including snacks\, water bottle etc.)\, work boots and gloves\, good clothes for walking and being outdoors\, bug spray/bug net and sunscreen \nIf you have any questions\, \n×Contact Us\n \nCloseContact us Here

SUMMARY:A Rocha Day Camp @ First Presbyterian (Winnipeg\, MB)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exciting week of camp filled with nature based activities\, lots of fun games\, and outdoor exploration. Kids can look forward to a field trip\, special visitors\, fun crafts\, tasty snacks\, and discovering the wonder in our own backyards.  \nCamp runs from 9:00 am – 3:30 pm daily. \n\nKids ages 6-12 welcome.\nCome dressed to be outside for the day.\nBring your own lunch\, water bottle\, sunscreen\, and hat.\nYummy snacks provided!\n\nNew Venue! We will be at First Presbyterian church located at the corner of Canora St. and Picardy Place in Wolseley. \nFor more information on A Rocha’s beliefs\, Heath procedures\, Air Quality Procedures\, and Risky Play Practices see our FAQ page. \nHow to Register \nThis year we are introducing a sliding scale for our day camp fees. We believe in the value of our programs and we know you do too. We also want our programs to be accessible to as many people as possible. Thanks to the generous support of donors and grants we are able to offer our camps at a subsidized rate for everyone. While the true cost of a week of camp is just under $400 per camper\, we are offering three affordable options for you to choose from. \nIf the rates offered are still beyond what you can afford please send us an email and we can talk about further financial assistance. Contact mb.education@arocha.ca for more info. \nEnter promo code FAM10 to get a 10% discount if you are registering more than one camper in a family. \n\n\n\n\nCANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS:   \nFamilies withdrawing with more than two weeks notice will be refunded full registration cost minus the Eventbrite administrative fee. If it is within the week prior to the program\, $50 will be non-refundable\, and the rest depending on if the spot is filled. \nIs this camp right for my child?\nAs a Christian conservation organization we strive to create warm\, inclusive\, quality environmental education programs that care for creation and equip others to do likewise. Our goal is to inspire hope\, wonder and curiosity through hands-on\, place-based immersive science education. By providing students with the opportunity to expand their eco-literacy and familiarity with the natural world\, our desire is that as a reflection of this knowledge\, their appreciation\, care and love of that space deepen and develop alongside their learning and exploration. \nOur work reflects our belief that God loves all of creation and calls humanity to act as stewards of that creation – both the human and non-human bits \nDiving Deeper into our Christian theology: \nWe aim to provide inclusive programming for a wide range of cultural backgrounds within our community. With that in mind\, we welcome insights from all cultures to address environmental challenges- to learn and grow from one another\, while remaining rooted in our calling to care for creation out of a love from the Creator. \nClick here for more information.
