About the event
In addition to invasive Phragmites cutting, each day will include a Phrag removal tutorial, free snacks and drinks, a free raffle for GBF merch, and either a drone mapping flight on October 7 or a radio telemetry (i.e. wildlife tracking) demonstration on October 8. This event will be an opportunity to give back to the Bay, connect with like-minded people, learn about invasive species and species at risk, and ask questions about GBF's work in both Matchedash and Georgian Bay.
