Kamloops 2024: A Record-Setting Annual Summit

The BC Sports Hall of Fame’s Annual Summit in Kamloops 2024 was a milestone event, breaking several attendance records and marking the largest BC Sports Hall event ever held outside of Vancouver. Building on successful summits in New Westminster (2019), Surrey (2021), Kelowna (2022), and Greater Victoria (2023), Kamloops set a new standard for what’s possible when sports halls from across the province come together. Thanks to the leadership of Co-Chairs Carolynn Boomer and Duncan Olthuis, as well as the support of key partners like PacificSport Interior, the Kamloops Sports Council, and the City of Kamloops, the event attracted 173 attendees for the Defining Moments Luncheon and 161 for the Reunion at the Summit: The Council of Chairs Dinner. Both events are now the largest in BC Sports Hall of Fame history outside of Vancouver. Kamloops 2024 also celebrated the city’s designation as the first-ever Sport Heritage Community in British Columbia, cementing its reputation as Canada’s Tournament Capital. This recognition highlights Kamloops’ commitment to sport across all levels, from excellence and participation to sport tourism and active living.
