World Water Day is an annual United Nations observance day held on the 22nd of March that highlights the importance of fresh water. The day is used to advocate for the sustainable management of freshwater resources and has been observed since 1993.
This year the Cowichan Lake and River Stewardship Society (CLRSS) and the Cowichan Watershed Board (CWB) are supporting World Water Day with FREE tours of the Cowichan Lake Weir. Discover how this vital structure supports the environment, regulates water flow, and protects fish population – and why it’s in need of an udate.
Where: Saywell Park in the Town of Lake Cowichan
When: Saturday, March 22. Tours at 10am, 11am and 12:30pm
The tour guides can help answer questions on how the weir works, provide information on the new weir design as well as collect any additional questions or concerns. Unfortunately, I will still be away and cannot participate. I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity if you are availabe. Further information is available at both the CLRSS and CWB websites.
