ThINC Newsletter: The Ripple - January 2024

Who can become a "Nature Steward" and what's new with our Western Screech Owl Program? 

In the first issue of the new year, we outline the different categories of the Nature Stewards Program and actions anyone can take on their property to be a better steward of the land. 

Also, ThINC's bat (and bird) man, Rob Welsh, brings us up to date on the Western Screech Owl program with positive news!

Robbie Burns Night is Sold Out

Thank you to everyone who purchased a ticket. It looks to be a great night. 

There will be a cash bar featuring 4 different scotch whiskeys, beer and wine. So we remind people to be mindful of their alcohol consumption. It does not take much alcohol consumption to affect your judgement, so if you are going to drink please ensure you have arranged to have a designated driver.

Thanks
