The BC Games Society will celebrate 50 years of competition in 2028 by returning to the roots of the Games, as original host communities Kamloops and Penticton have been announced as the hosts of the 2028 BC Winter and BC Summer Games.
The announcement was made today at a pair of events in Kamloops and Penticton. The communities were invited to apply to host through a sole bid process in recognition of their pivotal roles in shaping the history of the Games.
The BC Winter and BC Summer Games are British Columbia’s biennial celebration of sport and community, bringing together B.C.’s top emerging high-performance athletes, trained coaches, and certified officials for four days of competition. The inaugural BC Summer Games were held in Penticton in 1978 with the first BC Winter Games taking place the following year in Kamloops.
The BC Winter Games will take place in February 2028 and held primarily on Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc territory, situated within the unceded ancestral lands of the Secwépemc Nation. The Games will be the fourth Games in Kamloops after the community hosted the 1979 BC Winter Games, 2006 BC Summer Games, and 2018 BC Winter Games. The bid for the 2028 Games was supported by the City of Kamloops Kamloops-Thompson School District No. 73 with Sun Peaks Resort committing as the host venue for snow events. Known internationally as Canada’s Tournament Capital, Kamloops has a strong reputation as a centre for sporting events. The community hosts well over 100 cultural and sporting events each year and offers world-class facilities, a strong athletic culture, expertly trained officials, and an enthusiastic volunteer base.
Since hosting the inaugural BC Summer Games in 1978, Penticton has played home to the 1990 BC Winter Games, 1995 BC Summer Games, and 2016 BC Winter Games. Hosted on the traditional and unceded territory of the Syilx People in the Okanagan Nation, the BC Summer Games will be held in July- 2028 and are supported by the City of Penticton and School District No. 67. With a strong and engaged base of over 5,000 active volunteers, Penticton is a destination for year-round events in sport and beyond. The community is home to major annual sporting events and festivals and is recognized as one of Canada’s top wine regions and tourist destinations.
The BC Games Society is the organization responsible for setting the ongoing policy and direction of the BC Winter and BC Summer Games and supporting Team BC at the Canada Games. Originally established in 1977 by the Provincial Government under the Societies Act, the Society has become a key part of athlete and sport development in the province.
The B.C. government contributes more than $2 million annually to the BC Games Society to support the BC Summer and Winter Games and Team BC. The Province recently provided an additional $2 million in 23/24 to the BC Games Society to support operations and keep the cost of the Games affordable for Host Communities and participants. This is part of $50 million invested annually by the Province into the B.C. sport sector.

Quick Facts:
To date, more than 40 communities have hosted BC Winter and/or BC Summer Games.
These Games will mark the 35th BC Summer Games and 34th BC Winter Games.
The estimated economic benefit for host communities is $2 million for the summer games and $1.6 million for the winter games.

National Volunteer Week, happening April 14-20, is a time to celebrate the integral contributions that volunteers make to the well-being of our communities. The 2024 theme ‘Every Moment Matters’ highlights exactly that sentiment, from the moment a volunteer commits their time, to all they do – every moment they give to an organization makes a difference.
“From July 17 to 21, 2024, Maple Ridge will host 2,782 athletes, 566 coaches and 375 officials from across BC. The motto for the Maple Ridge 2024 BC Summer Games is ‘Celebrating Competition & Community’ reflecting the over 2,500 volunteers that we’re recruiting to deliver an exceptional Games experience for our guests this Summer,” said Laura Butler, President of the Games.
She continues, “Maple Ridge’s volunteers bring their skills, expertise, and passion to every aspect of life in our community. From sports to the arts, faith organizations, service clubs and charity organizations, there’s no one in our community that’s not enriched by the investment in time that local volunteers make in Maple Ridge.

On Sunday, March 17, the Directors and Chairs from the Maple Ridge 2024 BC Summer Games Society will be out in the community to kick off the drive to recruit over 2500 volunteers to help deliver an exceptional sport and cultural event from July 17 to 21, 2024.
“In February, I led a delegation of Directors from our community to attend the Lhtako Quesnel 2024 BC Winter Games. From the moment that we were picked up by the volunteer drivers at the Prince George airport we saw the importance of incredible community ambassadors to ensure that every aspect of the athletic competition and logistics were delivered with excellence and community pride,” said Laura Butler, President of the Maple Ridge 2024 BC Summer Games Society.
“Here in Maple Ridge, we will be recruiting over 2500 volunteers across all our areas of the Games operation from registration, accommodation, sport support, food services, logistics, special events, and a host of other positions. What we saw in Quesnel was how the energy, expertise and enthusiasm of the volunteers helped ensure that the youth athletes and the coaches and officials had a first-rate competition. We’re recruiting ‘Team Maple Ridge’ to welcome over 3000 athletes, coaches and officials to our community from July 17 to 21 of this year.
“Look for the blue jackets with the BC Summer Games logo at local grocery stores and community centres from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm on Sunday, March 17 as we launch our ‘Team Maple Ridge’ drive to secure over 2500 volunteers to deliver the 2024 BC Summer Games,” said Maple Ridge 2024 BC Summer Games Director of Participant & Volunteer Services, Heidi Einhorn.
She continued, “We’ll be available to answer questions about volunteer roles and we’ll be handing out information with a QR code that takes you to the online volunteer registration at www.bcsummergames.ca where you can sign up to join Team Maple Ridge.”
‘Team Maple Ridge’ will consist of over 2500 volunteers across a variety of roles that will draw on the expertise and interests of our community members. The earlier that people sign up, the more that the local Directors and Chairs will be able to connect people with roles that suit their interests and availability.
During the time in Quesnel, the Maple Ridge delegation saw volunteers serving in such diverse roles as guest services/hosts/ambassadors, promoting the Games and taking photos at the events/reporting/social media, food preparation and services, accommodation coordination, medical services, fundraising and sponsorship recognition, event set-up/take down and support, venue security, sport support/equipment procurement/support, and transportation support (courtesy drivers, parking management, traffic control).
“As we visited venues and met with volunteers, we saw how people of different backgrounds and experience were working together to handle so many aspects of the Games. We met retired military veterans who were bringing their logistics expertise to work in the background, home cooks who were helping serve all the meals, youth volunteers who wanted to gain valuable experience for future jobs as well as service club members who decided to invest their time to ensure that the youth athletes had a positive experience,” noted Laura Butler. “It was inspiring, and I was struck by the pride that everyone we interacted with had in their community. I also noted that people were making new friends and new connections which made for a joyful event. I think that one of the big legacies of the Maple Ridge 2024 BC Summer Games will be this incredible family of volunteers in our community when the Games end.”
The Games Directors and Chairs look forward to seeing you on Sunday, March 17 and at community events and facilities around the City in the coming weeks as we recruit Team Maple Ridge! Be a 2024 BC Summer Games volunteer. Sign up today at www.bcsummergames.ca.

QUESNEL, B.C. – Prince George’s Cillian Hollybow was presented the W.R. Bennett Award for Athletic Excellence as the Lhtako Quesnel 2024 BC Winter Games on Sunday.
A karate athlete in Zone 8 North West, Hollybow was recognized for his outstanding achievements before and at the Games. The presentation was made by the Honourable Nathan Cullen, Minister of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship and MLA for Stikine.
“It’s been excellent to see this kind of growth and I’m excited about his potential for the future,” Jordan Foy, Hollybow’s coach at the Games, told Global BC.
The W.R. Bennett Award recognizes one athlete at each BC Winter and BC Summer Games who demonstrates athletic achievement and leadership. Nominations are submitted by Provincial Sport Organizations and the winner receives a $2,500 bursary. The award was named in honour of former premier Bill Bennett, who created the BC Games in 1978.
At the Lhtako Quesnel BC Winter Games, Hollybow took home a pair of silver medals.
“I’m very proud of this for myself and for everyone who helped me get it,” said Hollybow. “I want to get a gold medal in an international event like a Pan-Ams or a World Championships.”
Hollybow has showcased remarkable achievements in karate, highlighted by a gold medal at the U14 Male Kumite -50kg at the 2023 Karate Canada National Championships. This victory secured him a place on Team Canada at the 2023 Junior Pan American Karate Championships in Santiago, Chile where he placed 9th. His talent extends to the World Karate Federation Karate-1 Youth League in Merida, Mexico, where he finished 5th in the same category.
A Brown Belt at the Nechako Karate Club, he assists younger athletes in their training. In his free time, he is a school champion in chess and a talented cello player who is part of the Royal Conservatory of Music.
