Kamloops residents are invited to a free, interactive open house at the Civic Operations Centre at 955 Concordia Way on Saturday, May 25, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.
In recognition of National Public Works and Civic Operations Week (May 19–25), we encourage you to come out and have fun while learning more about the City’s Civic Operations Department. This year’s theme, Advancing Quality of Life for All, demonstrates how public works professionals proudly contribute to and enhance the quality of life in our community. Come learn how your city functions!
