Lowepro is the top brand recognized around the world for quality camera protective cases. 2007 marks the 40th anniversary and we will be joining in on the celebration!

As part of our partnership, and for our staff to stay better organized in the field, Lowepro has helped us provide our Interpretive Guides with their Compudaypack. While leading a group from Winnipeg to Churchill or guiding a day on the Tundra Buggy, keeping a group organized is key to providing a seamless service and the Compudaypack helps our guides do just that.

In late October 2006, CEO of Lowepro, Uwe Mummenhoff will be staying with us at our remote Tundra Buggy Lodge. In the coming weeks, we will report back on his time with us! Stay tuned.

Our Frontiers North – Tundra Buggy® Adventure Interpretive Guides are a very important component in our product delivery. When hosting guests on the tundra, a key service we provide is interpretation of the wildlife that surrounds us. Our field staff are constantly scanning the horizon to locate and identify animals, from polar bears to lemmings. We feel our guides are the best in the industry. That being said, the tundra is a pretty big place.

In 2006 we approached Bushnell, the industry leader in high-performance optics, for a solution to assist our staff of Interpretive Guides to better spot wildlife for our guests. Bushnell’s solution was, for each of our Interpretive Guides, a pair of Legend™ binoculars.

These award winning binoculars are a perfect fit for guiding on the tundra. Without fogging-up, the Legends' are able to transfer from inside a warm Tundra Buggy to the frigid outdoors and back again. Perfect for the conditions we experience on the tundra.

While with us, our guests, wildlife enthusiasts who have traveled to the edge of the arctic, will have the opportunity to use and get a hands-on experience with Bushnell’s superior product.

The most important result of our partnership with Bushnell is that our Frontiers North’s Interpretive Guides are able to provide a better experience for our guests.

When talking about outerwear, the statement “Ask Anyone Who Knows” carries a lot of clout. The company who brought us this four-word marketing strategy can be seen on almost every high-Arctic and Antarctic expedition. If you’re looking for a parka that will keep you warm better than any other available, “ask anyone who knows” and they’ll likely tell you about Canada Goose.

Frontiers North’s Tundra Buggy® Adventure is the only company in the world able to take guests into Wapusk National Park to Cape Churchill. A truly authentic subarctic experience, at Cape Churchill our guests battle the elements on an adventure that includes wind, snow, ice and polar bears. More than any other program we operate, Cape Churchill is where we most appreciate trusted arctic outerwear.

For 2007, to honour the 50th anniversary of another family-owned Canadian business, we are renaming our Cape Churchill flagship itinerary Canada Goose & Polar Bears at Legendary Cape Churchill. For each guest participating in the 2007 Cape Churchill program we will be providing a Canada Goose Snow Mantra™ parka.

Our home at Cape Churchill is the Tundra Buggy Lodge, a cozy and warm refuge from long days on the tundra. The advantage of a Canada Goose parka for each of our guests at Cape Churchill is obvious. Although all of our Tundra Buggies are well heated, in an effort to avoid heat waves in front of a camera lens, for a good part of the day heaters are turned off and the windows on the Buggies remain open. In these situations, Canada Goose parkas are the best way for us to ensure the comfort of our guests.

Over the years, as our partnership strengthens with Canada Goose, we look forward to finding more ways to benefit our guests.

From a camera mounted on Tundra Buggy #1, roaming the tundra near Churchill, Manitoba, between October 16th to November 28th, 2006, we will be broadcasting live polar bear video to the National Geographic website reaching an estimated audience of 11 million viewers.

This initiative is a major opportunity to showcase Churchill as the ‘Polar Bear Capital of the World’ and Manitoba as the gateway to polar bears. On behalf of Manitoba’s tourism industry, we gratefully acknowledge the role National Geographic is playing in this initiative.

As well, we recognize the importance of the National Geographic - Polar Bear Cam broadcast to help accomplish Polar Bears International’s goal of “Conservation through research and education”. With this project we are able to generate polar bear awareness to an audience not accessible on our own.

We look forward to continue our relationship in the years to come as part of National Geographic’s WildCam franchise.

For their groundbreaking Adventure Learning® program and to help PBI better accomplish their goal of polar bear "Conservation through Research and Education" we contribute in-field physical infrastructure, logistical support and many, many hours of manpower.

Each October PBI hosts student leaders from all over the world in Churchill at PBI Leadership Camp. For the Camp we contribute many
resources, including for the students days on a mobile classroom (a Tundra Buggy) and nights on our remote Tundra Buggy Lodge. These students return to their homes “Ambassadors of the Arctic” helping generate in their communities awareness of PBI’s mission and values.

The PBI Videoconference Classroom connects polar bear researchers on Tundra Buggy One with students attending zoos and schools all over the world. We host the polar bear researchers and provide videoconference equipment and logistical support. In 2008, these researchers will make a total of 14 broadcasts to students in Alaska, Indiana, Manitoba, Oregon, Rhode Island, Sea World Australia, and the University of Central Florida.

PBI’s project thermoSTAT™ will be launched in October 2008 and comprises a number of programs as a call to action to lower the Earth’s atmospheric temperature. From Tundra Buggy One, a team of top polar bear researchers will provide live and near-real-time interviews to the news media. The team will discuss ice conditions and how changes in the sea ice affect polar bears, humans and the rest of the organisms on the planet.

PBI’s other Churchill-based initiatives include free in-Buggy Lectures and newsletter distribution for all of which we provide logistical support.

As well, in the form of a cash donation to PBI, each of our Frontiers North – Tundra Buggy Adventure ‘Specialist’ and ‘Enthusiast’ level guests are provided one-year memberships to Polar Bears International. Membership benefits for our guests include receipt of PBI’s quarterly newsletter.

PBI is a non-profit organization dedicated to the worldwide conservation of polar bears through education about polar bears. We proudly support PBI in their polar bear conservation efforts. In fact, we provide one-year PBI memberships for all of our 'Specialist' and 'Enthusiast' level guests who travel to Churchill with us on a polar bear program.

As well, we ally with PBI on our Polar Bear Cam initiative and their Adventure Learning program.
