Help us keep storm drains from flooding! 🍂

While Town crews are actively out clearing the streets, we welcome your assistance. If you see some flooding in your catch basin, use a rake to clear leaves off the grate, and allow the water to drain.

If you can't unclog it and it's causing flooding, report it to Town Hall: 250.752.6921

Thanks for your help this stormy season! 🌧

Marking his final official duty in the role of Mayor at the Legion’s Poppy Flag Raising Ceremony on Friday, Teunis Westbroek received the first poppy of the year, as is customary for the current Mayor.

“This year is the Legion’s 100-year anniversary and through all the years, they have kept an enduring promise to honour our Veterans, those currently serving and to remember those who gave their lives,” says Mayor Westbroek. “The poppy program enables them to continue that important work and to pass on that legacy on to future generations. So please be generous and join a century of people looking after one another.” For a full program of Remembrance Day ceremonies, visit the Legion Branch 76 website at https://legion76.ca/remembranceday

Please join us tonight at the Town’s Inaugural Meeting, 7pm at the Civic Centre, for the swearing in of the new Mayor and Council, and for the opportunity to thank Teunis and the outgoing Council for their service to the Town.
