The City of Kamloops was awarded $500,000 toward the project by Western Economic Diversification Canada through the Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program. The grant allows us to complete the project one year earlier than planned.

We are aligning the track replacement with the annual maintenance shut down to minimize the impact to our

Lawn Bowling is a low-impact game that is accessible and great for any age.

We welcome ALL players!

Anxiety is a response to stress and changes on a central nervous system. It can impact our lives, family and community. If you or someone you know is struggling with anxiety, come drop-in and learn about what anxiety is and what you can do to ease suffering.

With two clubs in Kamloops we offer a variety of lessons and play times, Sunday to Friday!
