The Strathcona Wilderness Institute will celebrate its 30th anniversary on July 19 and is inviting the community to celebrate.
The SWI is a non-profit organization that has educated and raised awareness of nature in the Strathcona region, through projects and guided hikes, since 1995.
Its goal is to embrace the Strathcona Park Master Plan to protect the natural beauty of the park, while promoting programs and publications to all visitors.
In celebration of its 30th year as an organization, the SWI will unveil a brand-new 3D map of Strathcona Park displaying major trails, camping locations, mountain peaks and lakes.
There will be refreshments, treats and cakes for all participants.
Events run from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Paradise Meadows Wilderness Centre.
