SUMMARY:2024 Summer Continental Mycoblitz – VMS Walk
DESCRIPTION:Summer Continental Mycoblitz 2024: VMS Walk\n\nIt’s coming up to that time of year again where we can get out there and collect fungi for science! Join us in participating in a walk to collect specimens for the North American Mycoblitz\, an amazing opportunity to obtain DNA barcode sequences from local specimens for just the cost of postage! Ludo and I will guide participants on how to upload photos to iNaturalist (https://www.inaturalist.org/)\, create voucher labels\, and prepare specimens to be mailed in for sequencing. We encourage participants to download the iNaturalist app ahead of time if you are interested in contributing photographs or specimens to the mycoblitz project. \nDetails about the Mycoblitz project can be found at this page: https://mycota.com/continental-mycoblitz/ (scroll below sponsor for details on the process). \nWe will meet at the Millstream Trail Head at 10:00am on Aug 10th (https://maps.app.goo.gl/vFyLhYDVjYmzuJnq7). Trail may be steep (moderate / intermediate rating) in locations! \nIf you are interested in participating or want more information (space is limited) email: edu@vanmyco.com

SUMMARY:Cancelled - Galiano Island Foray
DESCRIPTION:Due to BC Ferry schedule changes\, there will not be enough time for a meaningful foray this weekend. If ferry service is restored by the Victoria Day long weekend we reschedule. Otherwise\, perhaps we’ll make the trip over in the fall. Apologies! \n  \nThere will be a foray to Galiano Island (reached from the Tsawassen ferry terminal) to be led by Kent Brothers & other members on Saturday May 5\, weather permitting. This is a full day foray. \nYou don’t need to take a car onto the ferry — we’re walking on and walking off. We suggest you park in the lot just before the causeway — they shuttle you out to the ferry terminal and back. The ferry leaves Tsawwassen at 9:30 am (almost an hour later than in previous years)\, arriving at Galiano at 10:24 am. If you don’t see us on the ferry\, we will be waiting just up the hill from the ferry dock on Galiano Island under the big trees until everyone is off the ferry. The return ferry leaves Galiano at 4:50 pm (almost an hour earlier than in previous years) and arrives at Tsawwassen at 5:45 pm. There is only one ferry that will get you there on Saturday\, and one ferry that will be you back! Ferry fare to the island is $17.70 (age 12 & older) and the return fare is $7.80\, but a 2.9% fuel rebate is deducted from these prices. Payment in cash or credit card (Visa\, Mastercard\, or American Express) is accepted\, but debit cards are not accepted. \nThis is an easy hike to the bluffs overlooking Active Pass and back\, moving at a slowish rate to look at all the fungi and such. We’ll aim to have a late-ish lunch on the bluffs\, so bring water and food. Wear good walking shoes and clothing for unpredictable spring weather. If we are back near the ferry early enough before the ferry leaves\, we may hang out at a cafe to have some food and refreshment if any are open — we’ll check on the way out. \nWe’ll be in parks & protected areas for most of the walk (mostly the Bluffs Park)\, so we won’t be collecting for the table\, but rather looking for anything that’s interesting (and admiring the beautiful usually-present Amanita aprica) and explaining how to identify fungi. In previous years there were some online maps of Galiano Island\, but they’ve disappeared. A rough trail map is attached. \nYou don’t need to register unless you’re bringing a guest (non-member of VMS). If so\, please contact me at kent (at) brothers.ca to let me know how many — I just want to make sure we don’t get too many people coming out. \nWe don’t preclude bringing dogs on the foray\, but some dogs\, in their interest to see what we’re looking at\, enthusiastically step all over the mushrooms and/or disturb attempts to take photos. As you know your dog best\, if you think this would not be an issue and if your dog is friendly\, under control\, and good with large groups of folks\, feel comfortable to bring him/her along. Note that there are no water sources along our route\, so be sure to carry enough water for yourself and your dog. (Feel free to replace “dog” with “lawyer”\, “mother-in-law”\, “therapist”\, etc. as appropriate.) \nBecause the ferry schedules can change\, please consult them yourself the day before yourself to confirm departure times \nIf the weather forecast is for serious rain\, the trip may be cancelled as there is no shelter except near the ferry terminal (plus some very limited shelter at the bluffs). Check the web site https://vanmyco.org on the morning of Sat May 5 for a go/no-go notice.

SUMMARY:Bowen Island Foray
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our annual spring foray to Bowen Island! \nWe’ll be on the walk-on sailing from Horseshoe bay at 11:25am. Pack a lunch and weather appropriate clothing and footwear. A hand lens might be useful\, but won’t be necessary. \nThe foray route is tentatively planned to loop around Killarney lake. The group will assemble outside the library at Snug Cove.
