We've Moved!!

Our office is now located in the newly restored Wilson Street Heritage House. This house was originally built in the 1920's and has been fully restored to its original glory. It has since been relocated to Tranquille Road.

At one time, it was the home to Stewart Wilson, the first Commissioner of the Council of North Kamloops (equivalent to the modern day mayor).

While our phone number remains the same, our mailing address will be new. It will change to 115 Tranquille Road, V2B 3E5.

We encourage everyone to stop by and view the house and see what we're all about. We will be showcasing some local artwork enterance as time progresses.

Art Walk

Our 2nd annual Art Walk is currently being organized in partnership with the Community Arts Council. Local artists are paired with a participating retailer to display their work in store fronts for approximately three to four weeks. This gives both the retailer and the artist exposure to the community.

8th Annual NSBIA Golf Tournament Results

The NSBIA Golf Tournament was once again a huge success. Held on May 18th at the Kamloops Golf and Country Club, we had over 60 people in attendance.

The winning team was from Harrison Industrial Electric and was presented the annual trophy.

Peter Meidema from Progressive Air won the charity 50/50 draw donating half the proceeds to the Royal Inland Hospital.

The NSBIA staff take full credit for the wonderful weather.
