Dear FOMC members,
Please join the Friends of McIntyre
Creek (FOMC) and the Yukon Conservation Society (YCS) in celebrating the
official opening of the Middle McIntyre Creek Trail and Signage Project.
Over the past 6 months, FOMC and YCS have collaborated with community members
and representatives of governments and local organizations to develop new
features to increase responsible trail use and awareness of the environmental
and recreational values of Middle McIntyre Creek. These features are:
- 5 interpretive signs that present information about the
local ecology
- 4 self-guided hike brochures (copies will be available
at the event and at the YCS Office)
- Regulatory signage on designated motorized multiuse
trails through the area
When: Friday, October 25,
2013, noon-1pm. Please stay longer and take a guided hike around the
area.
Where: meet at the McIntyre
Creek multiuse bridge by the blue pumphouse. Access is via the dirt road
¾ of the way up College Drive.
I hope you can join us to view
these new trail features and celebrate the hard work of so many
volunteers. If you aren’t able to attend, the interpretive signs and
brochures will shortly be available for viewing on the YCS and FOMC websites:
Sincerely,
Christina Macdonald
Project Coordinator
Yukon Conservation Society
