On fee increases at BC Parks
By Bill Bennett
Kootenay East MLA
1. This is the first province-wide fee increase in four years; most campgrounds will increase by $2 per night while others will increase $3-$5.
2. These increases don’t affect sani-stations, mooring buoys, backcountry camping, picnic shelters or group camping.
3. The fees will be invested back into BC Parks and are estimated to generate $1.3 million per year and fees at B.C. public campgrounds and provincial parks remain among the lowest in Canada.
