Christina Lake Stewardship Society
About us
The Christina Lake Stewardship Society is a non-profit charitable organization that was established in January of 2001 (Committee Est. 1994). Our goal is to preserve and protect the quality and health of the Christina Lake watershed. Over the years the Society has been involved in several projects that involve lake monitoring, fish enumerations and public education.
Our office and interpretative gallery is located inside the Christina Lake Welcome Centre where visitors can access educational resources pertaining to our watershed.
Our Programs And Projects
Kokanee enumerations
Weekly counts of river spawners take place in late summer and early fall of every year. This information is used to indicate the health of the kokanee population in our area.
Lake CleAN Up Day
An annual event that brings people together to pick up litter from around our community. This event has taken place for over 20 years. We are grateful for all our volunteers that help keep our lake clean!
Derelict Dock Removal
invasive species monitoring
Removing old and broken docks reduces garbage and prevents creosote-soaked wood and Styrofoam from ending up at the bottom of our lake. If you have dock that needs to be removed, get in touch with us!

Every year we set up at multiple locations to provide awareness and educate the public on how to stop the spread of invasive species. Bi-weekly water samples are taken throughout the summer to test for zebra and quagga mussels in our lake.

Our tank is located in our interpretative gallery from January until May where we can educate the public about the salmon lifecycle and the importance of their ecosystem.
