The Elders Council provides folks who have helped to create and build BC's world-class parks system with the opportunity to continue to support it when they retire from full-time park work or advocacy.
Elders Council members participate in action-based project work aimed at ensuring the long-term well-being of BC's world-class parks system.
The Elders Council is committed to increasing 'Outdoor Literacy' in children. Research shows that children with a connection to nature will be much more likely to protect nature. As well, spending time outdoors is part of a healthy lifestyle that we all enjoy.
