Wildsight, an East Kootenay environmental organization, is asking for public feedback about their work and community involvement.

“We're a grassroots environmental organization that works with communities and it's important to us to know what people think,” said regional Wildsight chair Juri Peepre.

The organization would like to hear from the public about what it is doing well, and what they could be doing better. To that end, it has created a survey online so area residents can share their thoughts and ideas about the organization.

This year marks 25 years of the organization's conservation work in the East Kootenay. However, as Wildsight works for the environment, it does so by working with people and communities.

“The environment can't speak for itself,” said Peepre. “But people can and we want to hear what they have to say, what they think about our home place and what we can do better to help look after it.”

Wildsight has a short survey online for the public to fill out, with questions about what people think about the organization and opportunities for suggestions about what they can do better.

Wildsight works locally, regionally and globally to protect biodiversity and encourage sustainable communities in Canada's Columbia and southern Rocky Mountain region. In the fall and spring, the Creston Valley branch hosts a series of wildlife and nature presentations.
