Canada Water Week is being held this year from March 17-23.  Yukon government is putting on a number of events in celebration.  Check out these McIntyre Creek events:

1) FOMC is the recipient of the Excellence in Water Stewardship Award! This is wonderful recognition of the work FOMC has done to protect and enhance McIntyre Creek - keep up the good work everyone!  The Award consists of a $1,000 grant, a certificate signed by the Premier of Yukon and a distinctive glass award. The award ceremony is being held at the Beringia Centre on March 21st.

6:30 pm Water-themed art will be on display.

2) Wetlands in Winter.  March 22, 1-3pm. Location: McIntyre Marsh (3.4 km along Fish Lake Road)
Join the Wildlife Viewing Program for a short walk at this special spot.  It’s one of the few wetlands that does not freeze over during our long, cold winters!  Dress warmly and bring snowshoes, if possible.
