Description

Description (Service) The Georgian Bay Land Trust is a not-for-profit registered charity whose mission is to preserve the unique archipelago and the adjacent water bodies that lie along the eastern shore of Georgian Bay and the North Channel that are of ecological, geological and historical importance, and to promote the appreciation of this special area. 
 
This area generally covers, but is not specifically limited to, the shore between Port Severn to the south and the North Channel. 
 
The GBLT is a volunteer-oriented organization, with over 300 people working throughout the year to act as stewards for the protected properties, conduct educational seminars and information sessions, distribute materials about the work of the GBLT and generally work to achieve the Trust's goals. 
 
Volunteers come from all communities who have a stake in the preservation of the archipelago's well being: permanent residents, cottagers and seasonal residents, power boaters, sailors, kayakers, canoeists, native communities, fishers, campers, hikers. The one thing they all have in common is a love for this unique area and a desire to have it protected for the enjoyment of future generations.
