• Collaborate with Neighboring Lakes: Connect with representatives from neighbouring lakes to exchange ideas, strategies, and solutions for invasive species management, building a network of shared knowledge and support.

• Coordinate Research Efforts: Assist in gathering information about current and potential invasive species, contributing to reports or updates for the FLA and its members.

• Support Community Engagement: Help organize initiatives that involve the community, such as informational sessions, clean-ups, or surveys, to promote awareness and collective action.

Time Commitment:

This role typically requires a few hours per month, with flexibility based on the scope of projects and the volunteer’s availability.
