One of the key community events this summer is the first annual Bioblitz, which is an intensive blitz of biological surveys. This is a great opportunity for community members, neighborhood associations, school groups, naturalist clubs and other organizations to band together to collect information on the environmental and social features of the area over a two-day period.
Presently, we are anticipating this event to occur over the July 4/5th weekend. The weekend will be led by a variety of professional biologists with whom participants can join to study various environmental components such as birds, plants, insects and mammals. The intent is to run this event in subsequent years so that the information collected can be compiled and compared between years.
This event is being run by Yukon Conservation Society in the McIntyre Creek area.
