Input wanted for events

]District of Sicamous seeking input from the community to help shape upcoming events.

The District of Sicamous is inviting input from the community so as to help shape upcoming events.

A community event forum is planned for Wednesday, Feb. 17 in district council chambers.

The purpose of the meeting is to work out a calendar of events for the community that can be marketed and shared with local groups, businesses and visitors.

District recreation programmer Jamie Sherlock hopes the forum will attract the experience and knowledge of people in the community familiar with the events of other towns, as well as serve as a networking opportunity for people who might be looking to volunteer their time.

“Some of the key events that will be taking place this year are Canada Day and the addition of the Sicamous Hockey Heritage Weekend, and we hope some of those who have been involved with minor hockey in the past would like to be involved,” writes Sherlock in a news release.

Another focus of the forum will be the downtown activities related to the Summer Stomp.

“We would like to hear your feedback and how we can improve this event,” says Sherlock.

The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m., and anyone wishing to attend is asked to RSVP Sherlock at recreation@sicamous.ca or 250-836-2477.
