BC Forest Service is amending the open fire prohibition taking affect on Friday, May 15th at 12:00 Noon. The amendment will allow for CLASS 1 Campfires, which must be contained and no bigger than 18”x18”x18”. Please be responsible and keep water nearby to extinguish the fire and do not leave it unattended.

The executive is assessing the state of the trails to see if they can be made ready for the Rendezvous weekend. An email with details will be sent out with information once an assessment has been made.
