KAMLOOPS — Kamloops residents who are knowledgeable and passionate about heritage in the community are being asked to bring their insight forward. 

The City of Kamloops says it’s searching for a resident to serve as a community representative for the Heritage Engagement Group on a two-year term, on a voluntary basis. 

The city says the Heritage Engagement Group meets quarterly to assist and support Kamloops’ Livability and Sustainability Select Committee. It consists of seven representatives from the public and two city liaisons. 

The Heritage Engagement Group provides input and recommendations on initiatives such as: 

  • community feedback and sharing knowledge about local heritage and historic buildings, places and events 
  • assisting with advancing the You Are Here Kamloops Cultural Strategic Plan 2024–2034 
  • promoting public awareness and engagement in all heritage-related matters  
  • building connections with regional partners, historians and local cultural and heritage leaders 

Residents can apply until Sept. 9, 2026. The Heritage Engagement Group will select its new member during its September meeting. The new member will be informed in October and will be expected to attend the fall engagement group meeting in November or December.
