16 Terrace Review — Wednesday, June 4, 1986 Ducks Unlimited show | interest in Terrace area TERRACE — Ducks Unlimited may create a wetland nature park in the Terrace area in the near future. by Philip Musselman Ducks Unlimited is a non-profit organization that helps natural wild- life assume a safe ex- istence in our society. This organization was founded in the U.S. in 1937, but also during .that year, a Canadian division was founded. This is because wildlife heads north in the spring and south in the fall. In order to keep the wildlife - safe, both regions of North America had to be monitored. Ducks Unlimited is privately funded, there are no government funds offered. Therefore to keep going, the organiza- tion must raise money through dinner banquets and advertising. Earlier this year representatives for Ducks Unlimited ap- proached Terrace people in order to set up a local committee. The Terrace group has been formed, with five members, one of which is Lance Sund- quist, who is a Conserva- tion Officer for the Ministry of Environ- ment. ‘‘We are volun- teers,’’? said Sundquist, “our jobs have nothing to do with the commit- tee.’ The Terrace com- mittee plans a Ducks Unlimited banquet on June 13. ‘Friday the Thir- teenth is our theme,”’ Sundquist continued, “the banquet starts at 7 p.m. at the Terrace Hotel, but if you want to stick with the theme show up at 7:13 p.m.”’ Tickets for the ban- quet include a one year membership with Ducks Unlimited. The member- ship includes a year’s subscription to ‘‘Conser- vator’’, a magazine which Ducks Unlimited publishes four times per year plus Ducks Unlim- ited Magazine, which is published bi-monthly and reports on the status of the organization’s projects, . . At the banquet there will be some films, speakers, and other in- teresting topics for discussion. Also at the banquet, there will be an auctioning off of art- work, wooden decoys, and company services (eg. Okanagan Heli- copters is providing 30 minute rides for lucky buyers). Many local businesses - and artists have con- tributed to the auction. Those companies that wish to participate, but had no services to offer, sponsored wildlife prints from artists. According to Sundquist there will be nine or 10 of these prints at the banquet. The money that is raised from the event will go to Ducks Unlimited, minus an amount for expenses. Ducks Unlimited is in- volved with creating wetlands for wildlife. In Terrace, several places have been considered, in- cluding Howe Creek at the end of Eby Street. Also the Terrace com- mittee. wishes to ask Ducks Unlimited rep- resentatives about the re- establishment of wood ducks in the Terrace area. For such projects the committee will seek volunteer assistance in the building of nesting platforms on ponds to keep the eggs out of the reach of preditors, or aRraRTE other such minor changes to property. The property used to create these ‘‘nature parks’ is not purchased by Ducks Unlimited, but by the Nature. Trust Fund. The changes to the property are paid for by Ducks Unlimited. Parks are not created only for the ducks or hunters but for students, outdoor en- thusiasts, and the com- munity. The same goes for the banquet. The Terrace commit- tee for Ducks Unlimited is the first of its kind this far west and, according to Sundquist, Unlimited has some $39 million to spend on Canadian Wildlife pro- jects and directs about 80 percent of its funding towards its projects.
