Lots to do & see in the Shuswap

Canada Day 

July 1st of each year

The  South Shuswap Canada Day Committee has a fantastic Canada Day planned for  2011. This is one of the biggest, if not THE biggest celebration in  BC's interior. We have music & events lined up, our parade is always a hit with a large contingent  of hot rods and collector cars, our fireworks are a big attraction - it's  just the best party in the area, and not to be missed. It just keeps  getting bigger and better.

 

Every month throughout the year, we hold a planning committee meeting, to enable us to plan the absolute best for our community. 

For information, please call either (250) 675-4553 or (250) 675-4005.
