CONNECTING WITH COMMUNITY
Whether she’s hosting a town hall, attending a fall fair, or speaking at a local event, Donegal believes in showing up and listening. This page highlights upcoming events across Boundary-Similkameen — opportunities to connect, ask questions, and share what matters most to you.
This calendar shows events and days Donegal will be attending, but the office in Keremeos remains open Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM, by appointment.
Pop-Up Office Days are planned around the needs of people and communities — so if you don’t see a date scheduled for your area, please reach out. Our team will do our best to accommodate a meeting in your community.
If you have an upcoming event you’d like Donegal to attend that isn’t on the calendar, please reach out to the office — we welcome invitations and do our best to be there.
Please contact the office to book a time with Donegal or to speak with a member of our team.

Founders Day
I'll be at the Community Market!
I’ll have a booth at the community market this weekend, and I’d love to connect with you. Whether you have a concern to share, an idea for the future, or just want to say hello, please stop by. I’m here to listen and to represent the voices of Boundary-Similkameen.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
Founders Day is a beloved annual tradition in Greenwood, British Columbia—Canada’s smallest city. Held each summer, it celebrates the founding of Greenwood and honours the rich heritage of this resilient community.
Established in 1897 during the height of the Boundary region’s mining boom, Greenwood quickly became a bustling hub for copper and gold mining. At its peak, the city boasted smelters, hotels, and a thriving downtown core. Despite economic shifts and the eventual closure of the smelter in the 1910s, Greenwood remained a tight-knit and proud community.
Founders Day is a time for locals and visitors to come together and celebrate Greenwood’s pioneering spirit. The day typically includes a lively parade, family-friendly activities, local vendors, historical displays, live music, and community spirit. It also serves as a reminder of Greenwood’s unique past—including its role as a safe haven for Japanese Canadians interned during World War II.
Whether you’re a lifelong resident or a first-time visitor, Founders Day is a wonderful way to experience the warmth and history of this remarkable little city.

Osoyoos - Canada Day
What a day in Osoyoos! 75 years of the Cherry Fiesta and Canada Day together is the perfect reminder of what makes our region so special — community spirit, local pride, and a warm welcome that feels like home to everyone.
A huge thank you to the volunteers, organizers, parade participants, performers, vendors, and everyone who worked to make this milestone celebration one to remember.
Events like this don’t just bring us together for a day — they keep our community connected all year long.
Here’s to Osoyoos, the warmest welcome in Canada — and here’s to 75 more years of Cherry Fiesta fun!
Happy Canada Day!
