Who We Are

The Friends of the Rossland Range is a non-profit charitable organization which must be operated without financial gain for its members, and all earnings and donations must be used only for promoting the Society's purposes.  

On December 1, 2009, at the Society's AGM, Section 2 of the Constitution was revised by Special Resolution to align the Society's stated purposes more accurately with the  intention to be inclusive of all those concerned with the diverse values and uses in the Rossland Range. The Section 2 of the Constitution now reads as follows: 

2. The purposes of the Society are:

a) To increase public awareness of the importance of natural values, including recreational, scenic and environmental values, to the people and communities touched by the Rossland Range;

b) To increase public awareness of the cultural and historic values that make the Rossland Range and its communities unique;

c) To work with all stakeholders for responsible use of the Rossland Range, and particularly for use that is appropriate to its site, that respects conservation values and the needs and sensitivities of other users, and that provides appropriate integration or separation of uses;

d) To work with stakeholders and governments to preserve important natural, recreational, cultural, historic and economic values in the Rossland Range;

e) To act as a catalyst, and where feasible as a facilitator, for the creation of appropriate plans and other official instruments (e.g. bylaws, regulations, tenures) to give formal recognition of, and security for, natural, recreational, cultural, historic and economic values in the Rossland Range;

f) To enter into agreements, hold tenures, and undertake any other activities to further the Society's purposes as set out above.
