Ice will be ready at the Castlegar & District Community Complex starting this Monday, August 17!

Thanks to recent upgrades, including the new low-E ceiling, attic insulation and exterior doors, the arena is now more insulated and energy efficient, allowing us to make ice much faster than in previous seasons.

Big thanks to arena staff who have been working hard this week to get the ice ready in record time.

Looking to get on the ice? Contact [email protected] to inquire about available ice times.

💙 National Drowning Prevention Week is July 19–25.

Every year, approximately 500 Canadians lose their lives to drowning. Drowning is the third leading cause of unintentional death among Canadians under 60, the leading cause of accidental death for children ages 1–4, and the second leading cause of preventable death for children under 10.

This week is an opportunity to learn lifesaving skills and help keep yourself, your family, and your community safe around water.

Join us for a free afternoon of water safety education. Our Swim to Survive® instructors will be available to share, water safety tips and the latest research, how to choose and properly fit a life jacket, in-water Swim to Survive® skill development sessions.

Visit us this Saturday, July 25 from 12:00 to 3:00pm at:
📍 Crescent Valley Beach Regional Park
📍 Taghum Beach Regional Park

Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or someone who enjoys spending time on or near the water, we encourage you to stop by and learn skills that could save a life.

👣 The last clues are here!

🌳Koots: May is already coming to a close and it will be time to head off to a new spot for the summer season. If you have not found me yet, take a better look along the fence of the soccer field. Where you see a path leading to the playground is where you will also see me! It has been a wonderful spring and I hope to see even more of you in the Fall! Good luck hunting!

❄️ Snowball: It has been a great year to start lake season early. Bigelow Bay is looking great and the weather has been extraordinary. As you are enjoying the lake, head over to the boat house and look in the trees, and there I will be, just admiring the view. Another week of living the beach life for me before I pack up and move on for the summer, Good luck on your hunt and see you again in the Fall!

🌲👣 Have you found Koots and Snowball yet? We are halfway through May and there is still time to find them in one of our regional parks.

🔍 The third clues are:

🌳Koots: The World Cup is just around the corner, so I thought I would start taking in the action by the soccer field. I have to admit I took the best seat in the house, fully shaded amongst the trees and a perfect spot to watch a corner kick! If you are out playing some soccer this month, stop by and say HI!

❄️ Snowball: A few brave souls have managed to adventure to Bigelow and search high and low to find me, which they did! You better hurry though, at the end of this month I am going to jump into water vessel located in the boat house right next to me! The Spring here has been off to an amazing start, so don’t delay and come out to find me!
