Pipestone Creek is a unique landscape. Forested land is sandwiched between Coal Lake and Pipestone Creek itself, offering stunning view of the creek. In this area, wildlife also flourish, and EALT has set up numerous bird boxes to help them out. It is home to many bird species, including Tree Swallows and House Wrens. It is time to clean out old nesting material from the bird boxes to make room for next years occupants, and we need your help!
We also have the opportunity to add some directional signs to help guide visitors across this stunning landscape. We would appreciate your helping hands to get these signs installed.
We will meet at Pipestone Creek at 9:30 am, and leave the site by 3 pm. Wear appropriate footwear and long pants, and bring a lunch, water, hat, sunscreen/bugspray, and a camera or binoculars if you'd like. If you have your own gloves to bring we recommend that you do so, but otherwise tools and gloves will be provided. Additional information will be sent to you several days in advance of the event.
While we resume our volunteer stewardship events, we are committed to implementing actions to comply with public health measures and workplace guidance to reduce risk of COVID-19 among staff, volunteers, and the general public. We will also be implementing updated EALT health and safety policies and procedures to support a safe work and volunteer environment. Please read our guidelines for volunteering during COVID-19 here. We thank you for your understanding and support as we roll out these safety measures.
Stewardship events are weather-dependent and subject to cancellation.
