Upcoming Events & Presentations
Keep checking back for more upcoming MABRRI events!
MABR BioBlitz
Join in on the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Region’s (MABR’s) annual BioBlitz! This event will span across three days from April 8th through 10th, 2022. The event is free and open to everyone at all ages and levels of knowledge.
We will be issuing a 1st place prize at the end of each of the three days for those who submit the highest number of observations. Observations must be logged under the iNaturalist project, 2022 MABR BioBlitz, to be eligible to win a prize.
The BioBlitz will take place within the boundaries of the MABR, which ranges from Nanoose Bay to Qualicum Bay. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the MABR has restructured this event to allow for social distancing and a broader view of the biodiversity in our region. Observations will be accepted from any location within the MABR’s boundaries from April 8th through 10th.
It is expected that participants will follow provincial regulations and maintain social distancing while taking part in this event.
