Would your acreage benefit from soil amendment?<br />

Mercer Celgar is looking for landowners with 2 or more acres within 55 km<br />

that would benefit from using their Celgrow soil amendment. Pastures and<br />

hay fields are good options.<br />

Mercer Celgar will cover the costs of a Qualified Professional performing<br />

soil sampling, obtaining government authorization and delivery costs of Celgrow<br />

soil amendment based on access with a large truck/pup combination.<br />

Acreage should be able to accommodate at least 6 truck/pup loads. The two<br />

major components of Celgrow are individual wood fibres lost from the pulping<br />

process and surplus bacteria from the wastewater biological treatment<br />

facility. Wood fibres enhance soil moisture retention and bacteria are a good<br />

source of soil nutrients. The landowner is responsible for spreading and incorporating<br />

Celgrow into their soil.<br />

If interested, please contact Len Hewat<br />

Summer in Canada would not be the same without access<br />

to freshwater lakes. Last year, Canada experienced a record<br />

number of heatwaves, wildfires and extreme droughts<br />

that affected lakes all over the country. Understanding the<br />

impacts of climate change on our lakes requires data collected<br />

over multiple years, but many of the 2 million lakes in<br />

Canada are not currently monitored. Living <strong>Lake</strong>s Canada is<br />

asking people to sign up to monitor their favourite lakes this<br />

summer as part of the 2nd Annual National <strong>Lake</strong> Blitz.<br />

Anyone with a camera, thermometer, and a lake they care<br />

about can participate in this water monitoring program. It is<br />

a simple way to contribute to lake stewardship in Canada. If<br />

you love lake life, this program is for you.<br />

Registration for the lake monitoring is now open until the<br />

end of <strong>May</strong>. To sign up, go to<br />

<strong>Lake</strong>Blitz.Living<strong>Lake</strong>sCanada.ca<br />

or email <strong>Lake</strong>Blitz@Living<strong>Lake</strong>sCanada.ca. Each volunteer<br />

will be mailed a free <strong>Lake</strong> Blitz Kit containing a thermometer,<br />

datasheets, a field guide, and instructions on how to monitor<br />

from data collection to data entry. Training will be provided<br />

to all registered volunteers either online or by phone.<br />

No time to monitor? Folks can still get involved. As part<br />

of the <strong>Lake</strong> Blitz, Living <strong>Lake</strong>s Canada will be hosting the<br />

<strong>Lake</strong> Biodiversity Photo Challenge which starts <strong>May</strong> 1. Submit<br />

photos of your favourite lake via the Living <strong>Lake</strong>s Canada<br />

website. Last year, Living <strong>Lake</strong>s Canada received almost<br />

200 images from across Canada. Show us the lakes you love<br />

in your province or territory. Don’t want to enter the photo<br />

challenge but still want to share pics of your favourite lakes?<br />

Use the hashtag #<strong>Lake</strong>BlitzPhoto when you post on social<br />

media.<br />

To learn more about the program and to register, visit<br />

<strong>Lake</strong>Blitz.Living<strong>Lake</strong>sCanada.ca or contact the <strong>Lake</strong> Blitz<br />

Coordinator at <strong>Lake</strong>Blitz@Living<strong>Lake</strong>sCanada.ca.<br />

The Kaslo Housing Society is calling for (yet another)<br />

Special Meeting<br />

Thursday, <strong>May</strong> 19, 7pm via Zoom<br />

We need to alter Article 6 (Borrowing) in our bylaws<br />

so that it is clear that the KHS board is permitted to<br />

sign the mortgage papers for the Penny Lane project.<br />

There will only be one item on the agenda for this<br />

meeting so it should be quick! We’ll need a 2/3<br />

majority to pass the special resolution.<br />

The Zoom link and more information<br />

about the proposed bylaw change can be<br />

found at www.kaslohousingsociety.org<br />

or on Facebook, or please email us at<br />

info@kaslohousingsociety.org<br />
