I am happy to tell you about another way to help children experience nature.
Thanks to Jim Wisnia for writing about this:
The Eric Marshall Memorial Bursary Fund will make bursaries available for children to attend nature and science day camps at the Cowichan Estuary Nature Centre as noted in Amy Clinton-Baker’s article in the May-June edition of the Valley Naturalist. Eric was enthusiastic about volunteering to share his knowledge and support at these day camps as well as class visits to the Nature Centre. By continuing to contribute to the Eric Marshall Memorial Bursary Fund we can ensure that finance is not a barrier to children and youths wishing to participate in these nature education programs in the future.
Donations can be made online through Canada Helps <https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/888526407RR0001-cowichan-valley-naturalists-society/>, sending an etransfer to cvns@naturecowichan.net or by mailing a cheque to CVNS, 55 Station St., Duncan, BC, V9L 1M2. Â Please include a comment that the donation is for the Eric Marshall Bursary Fund.
