Soak up some culture at the attractive
log-constructed Gwen Ringwood outdoor
amphitheatre in Boitanio Park. The summer
concert series of Performances in the Park
are held every Thursday evening July 9th
through August 27th, 2009. Local and
visiting performance artists play a wide
variety of musical genres from rock and
pop, to country, bluegrass, gospel and
traditional... all for your entertainment at
no charge.
Surround yourself with nature by taking a pleasant walk
or ride down the well maintained and very popular
River Valley Trail, or by playing a relaxing round of golf
at one of the local courses. Stock up with
camping supplies, fuel up your boat
and grab a fi shing license before heading
out on your next adventure!
From Williams Lake you can travel in any
direction. To the south you'll travel to
150 Mile House on your way to or from
100 Mile House or Vancouver. A trip to
the east will bring you to the historic
communities of Likely and Horsefl y,
and if you are venturing west, you'll
fi nd yourself in Riske Creek on your
way to Bella Coola. Finally, if you are
heading north to Barkerville, Prince
George, or Alaska, be sure to stop at
Soda Creek or McLeese Lake.
