Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Every year on September 30th, we honour the children who never returned home, as well as the Survivors of residential schools, their families, and the communities affected by these institutions.

This is a day to reflect on the history of Canada and the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island, and to recognize the lasting impacts of residential schools on Indigenous communities across the country.

We encourage our visitors to continue learning, listening, and finding meaningful ways to support reconciliation.

Have you ever stepped outside at night and felt awe-struck by the stars? Perhaps you stayed and as your eyes adjusted, it felt like the stars kept multiplying.

Outdoor lighting at night can overwhelm the sky with light and erase the shimmer of the stars, especially near urban areas!

Did you know, it can also disrupt your circadian rhythm impacting your sleep patterns, mood, hormone release and body temperature regulation.

There is mounting scientific evidence to suggest that artificial light at night can have devastating effects on ecosystems.

At Bass Lake, we replaced several of our outdoor lights with DarkSky approved lighting.

We hope that this change will…

🦇 Return some previously light polluted foraging areas to our Bats
🪲 Help protect our nocturnal pollinators, and
🌠 Provide more rest and stargazing opportunities for our visitors
