Dominion Day Celebrations and Customer Appreciation Day

Celebrate Confederation by exploring your local history! We will be conducting a fully guided tour to give you a chance to hear the whole story of Harrison Mills & the Kilby Family. Other activities include crafts, a cake cutting and an old fashioned ice cream demonstration. Bring your blanket, stay the afternoon & join us under the Willow Tree for a tasty summer BBQ. Music by Lawrence Coagie from Sasquatch Mountain Admission is by donation today, as we celebrate our community & appreciate the support of our visitors.

BC’s Museum of Rural Life

Located near the junction of the Harrison and Fraser Rivers, the Kilby Historic Site stands as the only reminder of the once thriving community of Harrison Mills, British Columbia, Canada.

Step back in time and enjoy a leisurely tour of the Kilby Historic Site with its magnificent 1906 General Store Museum. Visitors will view a fascinating gallery of product packaging dating back to the 1920s and 1930s. Don’t miss the intriguing artifacts in the heritage Post Office and Manchester House Hotel; both were an integral part of the Harrison Mills community at the turn of the twentieth century.
