Growing communities,

Attention Kingfisher-area residents & business owners!📍

Join us for a Community Engagement Session on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, from 4:30 to 6:30 PM at the Kingfisher Community Hall.

Since the community stepped up in 2007 to establish the borrowing service area and acquire this beloved school building & grounds, it has been a true community-funded asset.

Now, as we approach the official transition of the asset in 2027, it’s time to plan for what comes next.

Come have your say, connect with neighbors, enjoy some light refreshments, and help build the next chapter for the Kingfisher School & Property!

We request that you RSVP for this event, but walk-ins are welcome too.

Registration link: www.eventbrite.ca/e/1990204942558?aff=oddtdtcreator

If you have any questions or concerns about this event, please reach out to Karen Savill at karens@futuresbc.com.
