COMMUNITY: First ever Rock Creek festival a hit

The first Kettle River Fest, held in Rock Creek on Saturday, Aug 4, was very successful with  250 or more people visiting during the day.

Many events were offered including a duck race and a fish auction. The fish auction saw all 30 hand painted plywood cut-all out fish, auctioned off. New vendors attended and we hope to attract more next year. 

"The heat was incredible, but everyone enjoyed themselves," said Pru Zerny, one of the organizers. "A big thank you to our sponsors: Community Futures Boundary, Regional District Kootenay Boundary and Grand Forks Credit Union. Without their generous donations, this event could not have been produced."

Thank you to all who attended, see you next year!
