With the 3rd Fiscal Quarter under our proverbial belt, it is time to start polishing off our draft budgets and renew friendships with funders to remind them of how valuable KISC’s work is.
We try to emphasize throughout the year how hard the staff
and crew work; often enduring inclement weather, battling swarms of ground-nesting wasps, and navigating rugged terrain.
Weeds are resilient, animals are cryptic, and insects are, well, insects. Day and night (literally), the crew battles onward; measuring success in numbers of species treated and numbers of acres surveyed.
The crew adapts strategies and use their ingenuity to get the job done. They are alert and vigilant; always on the lookout for new infestations (like the ivy gourd on the left).
The work is hard, the rewards are priceless. Read Full FY2014 3rd Quarter Report.
