Friends of Cheakamus Event Update

With the health and safety of our students, visitors, staff and volunteers top of mind, we regret our spring Friends of Cheakamus events are postponed. We are regularly updating our COVID-19 Response page with new information, so please check back regularly for up to date information on new dates for Friends of Cheakamus and Cheakamus Foundation events.

​Everyone had a spring in their step on March 1st!

Friends of Cheakamus members enjoyed a tranquil forest walk through the Enchanted Forest during the monthly First Sunday event - with a fun detour to visit the eight new baby goats at the farm! Click here to learn more.
