SUMMARY:March 22\, 2023 World Water Day Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:To the Raingardens in Delta \nRain-water run-off enters Mill Lake and local creeks through catch basins and culverts. This water may contain\, for example\, brake and tire dust\, road salt\, excess fertilizers and pesticides\, cigarette butts\, plastic and paper litter. A rain garden absorbs this runoff instead. Interested in seeing some rain gardens examples. Join us on March 22nd. \nWe will need at 10:30am at Cravings coffee shop at the corner of 112 Street and 84 Ave in North Delta. There is plenty of mini-mall parking and of course coffee\, tea\, washrooms\, at Cravings. We will leave at 11:00am for a walking loop-tour of several “Social Heart” rain gardens in the area from 112 to 115 Street and 84 to 83 Ave. This takes about 1.5 hours\, depending on level of interest and speed of walking. If desired\, we can drive a few blocks to North Delta’s largest school rain garden\, McCloskey-Hydro\, on 80 Ave at 114 Street.  It is also feasible to walk there as part of the loop-tour\, depending on what the group. \nRegister with Quirien Mulder ten Kate at qmuldertenkate@gmail.com. \n  \n

SUMMARY:October 2022 Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Monthly AMNC Meeting\n\nThere is a change in the program for October 12 as Rick Skerry is unable to give his presentation due to a family emergency. We look forward to his presentation at a later date. \n Speaker: Dr. David Clements\, Ph.D. Professor of Biology; Assistant Dean\, Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences (Research) at Trinity Western University \n Topic: “Australia’s mesmerizing mammals\, implausible plants and absurd birds” \nDavid Clements will share stories\, pictures\, and videos of his encounters with some of the world’s most unusual animals and plants from two recent sojourns to Australia\, crisscrossing the continent. Many of these Australian creatures and plants symbolize the marvels of the world’s biodiversity\, and yet are threatened by the calamity of climate change. We see this in the recent fires that ravaged many Eucalyptus woodlands in 2019 and 2020\, and even more recently in record-breaking floods have impacted Australian ecosystems in 2022. \nMasking not mandatory. Please stay home if ill or having flu/COVID symptoms.
