Our purpose

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.

Membership is free!
