In 2007, the Central Kootenay Invasive Plant Committee initiated the “Communities Pulling Together” program. This initiative encourages community groups to become local stewards by controlling invasive plants at a high priority site. In recognition of the group’s efforts, the Committee provides you with a $250 honorarium for your efforts, as well as gifts and refreshments. For more information, download
the attached information form.
Who can be involved? Any interested community group can become involved. Groups include Streamkeepers, youth clubs (e.g. girl guides, boy scouts, 4H), sports teams, trail’s clubs, rod and gun clubs, community service groups (e.g. Rotary Club), church groups, etc. It’s a wonderful way to promote stewardship, encourage a family activity, and raise money for your community group.
How does it work? Fill out the attached application form and send it in to the Central Kootenay Invasive Plant Committee. We will be in touch with you once we have found a site that matches your local interests.
