Abbotsford Mission Nature Club Board

Interested in getting more involved? We are looking for a few more members to join the board. Do you have an interest in communications or social media or any other area. You are welcome to sit in on a board meeting to get a feel for what goes on behind the scenes. Meetings are held monthly, are informal and enjoyable.
No obligation!

Come and join us in the continual learning and appreciation of our natural world!

Club meetings are normally held the second Wednesday of each month (except July and August) at 7:30 pm at the Ravine Park Hatchery, 2395 Crescent Way, Abbotsford (by the Abbotsford Arts Centre).
