Seen Any Nesting Herons? Tell Us About It.
Nature Chilliwack is actively involved in local, provincial and national conservation issues. We write letters in response, attend public open houses, submit briefs to environmental assessment hearings, respond to legals in the local papers and generally keep abreast with current concerns. Loss of ALR lands and wetlands especially concern us. Our club sponsors a Southern Orca through the Vancouver Aquarium’s program. We collaborate with the Water Wealth Project, the Fraser Valley Watersheds Coalition, Earthwise Agassiz and the Fraser Valley Invasive Species Council.

Conservation Reports by Annabelle Rempel
Annabelle Rempel retired in 2018 after 30 years as the Conservation Chair of the Chilliwack Field Naturalists Club. Sadly she passed away in May 2021
She wrote about current conservation issues bimonthly. Our Club truly appreciated her expertise and dedication.
Annabelle hand-wrote her reports.
Since her passing, Nature Chilliwack members discuss Conservation Concerns at monthly meeting following up with letters to proponents and input into any feedback surveys locally, provincially and federally.
