Wild People ♥ Wild Hearts
Happy Valentines from Wildsight
Read more to hear our wild people talk about why they love the wild organization they work for.

Doesn’t YOUR heart melt away when you see two ravens doing a beautiful aerial dance? Or while watching a string of baby ducks swimming hard to keep up with their big mama duck. My heart sure does!
Sanne van der Ros, Go Wild Program Co-ordinator
I love that there are no pesticides in our municipal parks and soccer fields in Kimberley because my daughter and I love to play in the grass in our bare feet!
Kelly Mitchell, Communications Director, and daughter Kalico
I love that I couldn’t be working with better people, in a more beautiful place, in the most important work: conserving our corner of the Earth for the future!
Helen Sander, Kimberley/Cranbrook Program Manager
I love Wildsight because it inspires hope and optimism to assure a future for wild creatures and the remarkable place we call home.
Juri Peepre, Wildsight Vice-Chair
I love Wildsight because it is the voice for the animals, mountains, grasslands, rivers and wetlands that are otherwise silent. I love the grizzly bear because it reminds me that I am part of the ecosystem, not separate from
it.
Heather Leschied, Water Stewardship Program Manager
I love Wildsight because without conservation of our resources, we have little future, but with proper stewardship of what we have, we can leave the world a little better place than we found it. I think that should be the task of each of us, for ourselves, and for future generations.
Robert Leschied
I love Wildsight because I have the opportunity to work with a real grassroots organization comprised of passionate and progressive individuals who recognize the significance and value of keeping this corner of the province wild.
Rachel Darvil, Columbia Headwaters Program Manager

Will you be my Valentine?
Like rays of sunshine
you’d warm my heart
and let new growth start
You’d melt my icy shell away
akin to a warm spring day
I’d give to you the most basic of needs
Clean, healthy water, complete with weeds
I’d allow you to drink, play, relax and stay fit
If only you would just be mine
I’d know my health would always be fine
Will you be my Valentine?
Love, Lake Windermere
