All funds raised at the event will go towards the SS Sicamous Marine Heritage Park and Museum. Since Covid19 we had to shut down our doors permanently which resulted in a significant loss of funds and revenue. Now that we are able to open up, we are working towards raising funds for our museum displays and restoration projects out in the Park.
