Chamber Girls @ the Breast Cansor Golf Scrabble

July 25, 2009 | Tips from Travellers > Smithers, Festivals & Events

 There we are! I much enjoyed this day; a scrabble at the Smithers Golf and Country Club made the end of a day that much more enjoyable.  Teams were scheduled to six holes, and we all got to hit the ball from the closest to the target.  A dinner and a silent auction was to follow.

Smithers RCMP Musical Ride 2009

July 25, 2009 | Tips from Travellers > Smithers, Festivals & Events

 On July 15, 2009 the RCMP came to Smithers to show some talent at our very own Fair Grounds.  The two shows at 2 and 7 filled the stands.  This was a awsome treat for residents, and the very special people from out of town.  This was the first time the show has been held in Smithers for almost 20 years.  The proceeds went toward funding local community policing initiatives.

CN Smithers

July 25, 2009 | Tips from Travellers > Smithers, Sightseeing Tours

 I know that the guys of CN are working hard,so why not take the train from Prince George to Prince Rupert is a fine idea of relaxing and taking up the scenery in BC.  Choosing Totom class is where you get to relax in the panoramic dome, and enjoy a hot meal.  The Comfort class provides an economy of total comfort.  Traveling by train in the winter is also a very fine idea because you don't have to pay by class (hint, hint).

Central Park Building

July 25, 2009 | Tips from Travellers > Smithers, Art Galleries & Artists

 The Central Park Building in Smithers includes an Art Gallery, Museum, and a Dance Studio.  I think the the building is intresting from the back, and not too many people get to see or notice it.  Enjoy!

12 noon sirine

July 25, 2009 | Tips from Travellers > Smithers, Art Galleries & Artists

The Bulkley Valley Museum Presents: A Smithers Culture Crawl. The crawl takes visitors on a remarkable and fascinating stroll.  Our Culture Crawl explores the Swiss and Dutch migration to Smithers, history of Music in the Bulkley Valley, the history of the Fire Department, breathtaking gardens, and unique Aladdin and Eaton kit homes.  Every day at 12 noon a sirine sounds from our fire hall, so one Friday I had to ask if I could take some pictures from the tower.  Enjoy!

 Bonjour,

Smithers is so exciting during the summer months.  I like to go hiking and canoeing in remote locations then participate in Smithers community events after an early morning.
