Thank you to everyone who came out to our first ever fundraiser dinner on Saturday, November 3rd!  It meant so much to us to have so many of you there to support our work, and to share our passion for the natural beauty of the Fraser Valley. We had so much fun, we’re already planning an even bigger event for next year!

We have already received calls and emails from our guests telling us how much fun they had, what interesting things they learned, and how much they’re looking forward to next year. Here’s what they had to say:

.

“I thought it was well organized, entertaining, informative, food was good, people were great and the venue was very cool. I always enjoy picking up knowledge and learning what I can do to help. We already took our nephew exploring to find mountain beavers and coastal giant salamanders. We were told that their habitat is in our back yard!”
“We enjoyed the evening very much. Well thought-out and the dinner was lovely!  See you again next year!”
 “We had a very nice time. Good food, good people, and shared interests, what could be better?! ” 
“Fantastic dinner/roundtable discussion! It is always heartening to meet others who are passionate about finding pro-active methods of preserving the environment, not just for current but for future generations to discover and enjoy.”
