Every time every year, every way of life, there will always be new things to do.
I grew up in Kamloops.
Time artists and cultural workers, I have seen a lot of changes and growth over the years.

Kamloops has a lot to see and can do as well, so I can only start from scratch here.
So let\'s get started!
