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.
There are several e-mail addresses which have changed or are no longer valid. If you wish to receive e-mail messages please contact us at bdmcc@charter.net and we will be happy to correct the information. Thanks for your support.
