Thank you for volunteering on Saturday, September 29th, 2007 at the TELUS National Day of Service in Fish Creek Provincial Park. The Friends sincerely appreciate your support, and your personal contributions have undoubtedly improved the Park’s environmental stability. Everyone in the TELUS group did a wonderful job and we thank you for your hard work and dedication. Because of you, Fish Creek Provincial Park now has a more dynamic and sustainable environment. The Friends rely on volunteers to complete many essential tasks in the Park, which would not possess its natural appeal and biodiversity without volunteers like you to help. Invasive species like Canada thistle are becoming more prevalent and widespread in the Park and your effort in reducing their numbers is greatly appreciated. Thank you for pulling weeds, and please be proud for lending a hand. I hope you enjoyed yourself and the Friends would be pleased to have your help again. Congratulations and thank you for doing a wonderful job.
Bonnie Castle-Dixon, Executive Director, Friends of Fish Creek Provincial Park Society
