Tomorrow I am looking forward to a phone call from Sheila Ziman, Chair of the Haliburton County Land Trust. We are going to talk about a way that I may be able to contribute, in a volunteer capacity, to the Land Trust. The HC Land Trust is a non-profit, non-governmental registered charity and it's mission is to protect the natural heritage of Haliburton County for future generations. They have been working on some exciting projects in the past, including the acquisition of an island on Kennisis Lake and just recently, a large re-forested acreage outside of the community of Gelert. Their "species at risk" monitoring programme truly has caught my eye. To find out more info on this group you can check out their website at http://www.haliburtonlandtrust.ca/. I am not sure how I can help with my limited abilities, but am game for any suggestions Sheila may have tomorrow! I also think it would complement my involvement with Friends of the Rail Trail quite nicely.
