Shuswap

Shuswap is known for its stunning location on Shuswap Lake, making it a summer hub for boating, swimming, and houseboat rentals, plus year-round outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and skiing in the surrounding mountains, and features North America’s longest freshwater wooden wharf, while also having a strong agricultural scene with farms and local produce.

Communities

Salmon Arm

Salmon Arm is located in the Southern interior of BC and has a population of approximately 20,000 people. It is a bustling city with many attractions especially during the summer. Salmon Arm is connected to all four arms of Shuswap Lake so provides excellent opportunity for houseboating, watersports, and beach days. Do not let Salmon Arm’s small size fool you. There is a waterslides park, many farmers markets such as DeMille’s and is home to the annual Roots and Blues festival. A charming community with big city feel!

One remarkable aspect of being apart of the WHRC family is feeling deeply connected and valued beyond employment. There is a sense of reassurance knowing someone has your back and advocates for you. Throughout my career at Western, I have made lifelong friendships that I truly treasure. WHRC has been a rock for me; the entire 34 years I have spent with them. Thank you
