Itinerary:
On February 28th from 7-8 pm join Friends of Kananaskis for their Speaker Series. The event will be held at University of Calgary, Science Theatres, ST 135. The suggested donation is $5 to attend. You do not need to register on the ACC calendar to attend, simply go to the event location. Conservation Officers within Kananaskis Country perform unique and varied job functions. Join officer Donna Schley for a look into her role and responsibilities. Conservation Officers are often perceived as the ‘back bone’ of the park. Whether they are called upon to assist Public Safety staff during search and mountain rescue missions, to perform bear aversion near park campgrounds and facilities, or to investigate a wildlife poaching or other offence – Conservation Officers are the guardians of Alberta Parks. Donna will take a look at the evolution of Kananaskis Country Conservation Officers and the skills and certifications necessary to achieve their goals.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!


*Cancellation Policy*: If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
