Due to a tragic event, around 25 hens and a rooster need to be rehoused. If interested please call 250-809-2319.

Can we get a drumroll please…?

Without further delay we are thrilled to announce that the 2021 Silent Auction hosted by the Anarchist Mountain Community Society raised over $15,000 which will be donated directly to the Anarchist Mountain Fire Department.  This money will be put to good use by the AMFD and give them the opportunity to upgrade equipment and training after a busy wildfire season. 

The success of this auction is the result of a huge community effort. Whether you supported by bidding in the auction, donating an item or sharing the event with your friends… we could not have done this without YOU! 👏👏👏👏

Yours truly…

The Anarchist Mountain Community Society Team

FIRESMART CLEANUP DAY AT JAMIE SOULE MEMORIAL PARK

After delays due to covid restrictions in May and hot, dry conditions in July, it’s finally the time for the annual FireSmart community cleanup.

Our 2021 FireSmart cleanup event is a joint project with the Jamie Soule Memorial Park committee to clear a trail that will lead visitors through the park. The goal is to “lightly” FireSmart the trees and vegetation adjacent to the pathway while keeping the park as natural as possible. There will be a brief introduction describing potential opportunities for our use of the park. We’re encouraging all residents, young and old, to brainstorm ideas for future community activities.

All volunteer hours count towards maintaining the Anarchist Mountain FireSmart Community Recognition. The FireSmarting will end by noon after which there will be a communal meal – details to follow. 

What to bring:

• The whole family! There will be fun, supervised activities for children.
• FireSmarting tools you are most proficient with such as rakes, shovels, limb loppers, pruning saws, shrub trimmers, dollies and wheelbarrows. Weed whackers will be used if conditions allow. The FireSmart team will provide instructions for the cleanup.
• Utility trailers for hauling vegetation debris.
• Lawn chairs.

The entrance to the Jamie Soule Memorial Park is located opposite the mailboxes on Sasquatch Trail. Turn right and park in the lot to the left of the driveway. The event introduction will take place at the end of the drive nea rthe Jamie Soule wooden sign.

Thank you to the Anarchist Mountain Community

From the Meet, Greet & Reflect (M.G.R.) Gathering Committee

Thank you to Wayne & Rose Chee for coming up with the idea and hosting this event at their home to thank the Anarchist Mountain Fire Department (AMFD) members for all their work and sweat during the Nk’Mip Creek WildFire.

Thank you to all who came out on Tuesday August 31^st at 3:00pm and joined in our Meet, Greet & Reflect Gathering.  It was a great crowd who weathered the cooler temperatures, the wind kicking up and the eventual shower of much-needed rain.

We had an informal gathering of meeting neighbours, socializing, community reflection, and delicious food.

Thank you to Chefe Daniel and his wife Debbie for the delicious buffet!      

(Chefe Daniel’s Smoke House Smoker – Food Truck & Catering Services chefedaniel1@gmail.com (250) 408-8418) (Portuguese Food Truck).

The Anarchist Mountain Community Society (AMCS) sponsored and paid for all the food and water.

This was a much-needed gathering of new and old residents in the community. There were so many people meeting for the first time and others catching up, so we just went with the informal flow of the crowd.

There will be more events coming up and we will be sharing information with everyone.  Keep your eyes open for the next events on Anarchist Mountain.

Your AMCS Directors
