Board / Committees
Updated:4/16/2016
The Wildlife Committee was established to educate, advise, and inspire the Burke Centre community to uphold its motto: 'Nature and Community in Harmony.'
In addition to community mediation on wildlife issues, the committee has monitored streams for water quality, stenciled storm drains, built bluebird nesting boxes, created a butterfly garden at Lake Barton (certified as a 'Backyard Wildlife Habitat' by the National Wildlife Federation), maintained a bulletin board at Lake Barton, and initiated the 'Scales and Tails' exhibit at the annual festival.
