Acknowledgements

Special thanks to the Highlands Stewardship Foundation who raised, from their own membership, the first seed grant to get this program rolling, and to the Veins of Life Watershed Society who partnered with the bullfrog eradication program for the 2005 season.

I am very grateful for help and financial support from the municipalities and their environmental staff. Also, many thanks to those who have made private donations and who have offered to volunteer their time and expertise. Additionally, several community groups have provided written endorsements of the bullfrog eradication program and have helped in myriad ways to assist in the fund-raising process.

  • In 2007, CRD Water and CRD Parks have once again contributed $15,000 each to the bullfrog program - and the Municipality of Langford has recently announced a grant of $5,000. In addition, Committee Chairs for CRD Water and CRD Parks have written letters in support of the program to The Honourable Barry Penner, Minister of Environment, requesting co-operative funding from the province.
