Join us for an informative session on different ways to create a legacy with a donation to The Couchiching Conservancy’s Heartwood Fund.
We will be joined by Chris Hazel, Vice President of The Community Foundation of Orillia & Area. They manage funds for 26 local charities, including the Conservancy. Chris will talk about endowment funds, managing risk for charities’ funds , the Foundation’s long-term investment philosophy. The key information will be how it applies to this very difficult and abruptly changing investment environment and how it relates to our Heartwood Fund.
Space is limited – RSVP to Tanya @ couchconservancy.ca (remove the spaces in email address)

The Carden Challenge is our most popular fundraiser. Teams of up to 5 people (or more depending on your category) spend 24 hours on The Carden Alvar counting as many species as possible. Last year’s participants logged 215 species!
Species IDing takes place from Friday May 23rd at 6pm to Saturday May 24th at 6pm. Participants either camp or stay near The Alvar Friday night. There’s a large organized dinner Saturday night. Please see the below page for more details.
Beginners welcome – the best way to learn birds is with other birders!
