Discover Parks Ambassadors
Engaging with park visitors to promote nature appreciation, safe outdoor recreation, and responsible park use.
Throughout the summer months, Discover Parks Ambassadors run educational programming for park visitors, such as guided nature walks, family friendly games and activities, and interpretive presentations. These programs and activities are designed to connect you with the natural world and foster a deep appreciation for BC's protected places.
The Discover Parks Ambassadors program is a collaboration between BC Parks and the BC Parks Foundation.
Learn more about the Discover Parks Ambassadors at discoverparks.ca, and join us in experiencing the magic of British Columbia's parks.
