As you approach the village of Keremeos, you will see vineyards, farms, and orchards surrounded by beautiful mountains.

Their Community Outdoor Pool is open in the summer months and the Similkameen Recreation Centre has activities available year-round.


Location

Keremeos is a 40-minute drive from Penticton and 1 hour and 20 minutes from Kelowna.

Family Drop-In Programs

On school days, bring your kids ages 0-5 years to Cawston StrongStart. It is a free school-based early learning program where your child will have free time to play games, read books, create a craft, participate in storytime where they will sing songs, and exercise during gym time (where applicable).

Follow the Lower Similkameen Early Years Facebook Page as they provide free drop-in programs for children ages 0-6 and their caregivers throughout the school year.

Parks & Playgrounds

The largest park in Keremeos is Memorial Park, which includes an upgraded playground and splash pad, a large gazebo, picnic tables, public washrooms, and outdoor exercise equipment.
