With spring and the increasing activity of bears in Maple Ridge, the new Maple Ridge Black Bear Society is putting out a call for volunteers.
The group is asking for people to be involved in:
- Dispersing educational materials in target areas
- Coordinating and assisting at community events
- Fundraising and donations work to pay for signs, flyers, electric fences, educational material and Critter Care.
- Grant writers, content creators and graphic artists
The group asks people who are interested to contact executive director Leah Cooke at mapleridgebears@gmail.com.
