Cowichan Bay, B.C. – The Cowichan Land Trust’s Burger & Beer Night July 17^th at the Cowichan Bay Marine Pub was a great success, raising over $4600 for the Cowichan Estuary Nature Centre!!  Those who came out to support the fundraiser event enjoyed a great meal, good company, and wonderful entertainment by folk artist and singer songwriter Cara McCandless.  Guests also had the chance to bid on dozens of fantastic items in both a silent auction and exciting live auction!

Official Opening – April 21st, 1pm-5pm

The Nature Centre will officially open on April 21st – official ribbon cutting at 3pm.  We’ll open up at 1pm so you can have a look around and enjoy some music and nibbles, and, of course, the very best of mother nature! If you are interested in volunteering check out our new Cowichan Estuary Nature Centre program website.

We are currently working on two stewardship projects, the Friends of Cowichan Creeks project and the Quamichan Watershed project. We are also operating the Cowichan Estuary Nature Centre and continue to fundraise for the Sansum Narrows Regional Park aquisition project.
