Working together to

preserve our wetlands

for future generations

 

Welcome to the Butte des Morts Conservation Club website. The BDMCC is a dedicated group of individuals whose mission is to provide Conservation, Preservation, and Restoration (CPR) to the wetlands and wildlife habitat of Lake Butte des Morts, its' tributaries, and surrounding wetlands.  The BDMCC also partners with other conservation organizations and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources on projects on Lake Winnebago, the upriver lakes of Winneconne and Poygan, as well as the Fox and Wolf Rivers.  

In 1998, the Butte des Morts Conservation Club, with the assistance of public contributions, and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource grant programs, purchased 1183 acres of this habitat known as Terrell's Island (Map) and placed it in 'public trust' for perpetuity.  This wetland area has all the basic ingredients necessary to rebuild and restore a healthy and productive wildlife habitat and spawning grounds for a vast variety of marine life.  Terrell's Island is open to the public and offers a variety of educational and recreational opportunities.  It is the goal of the BDMCC to apply CPR to this habitat so that it will continue to provide these and many other opportunities for our generation and generations to come.

We hope that you will take the opportunity join us often - both here and at Terrell's Island.  
Thank you for visiting us - be sure to bookmark this site and come back often.

 

What's New This Month

 

March Meeting Minutes Posted

We apologize for the delay in posting the March minutes. Computers have not been treating Randy very well as of late. I think we can all sympathize with him. Isn't technology supposed to be making our lives easier? However, they are up now for your viewing enjoyment.

 

Terrell's Island Nesting Island Project

Pictures and a brief narrative of the project can now be found in the "Projects and Pictures" section of the website. We are in need of volunteers to help with planting and monitoring of the islands. Please contact us if you are able to help.
