Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association would not be able to operate and maintain current membership fees if it were not for the efforts of numerous volunteer members who maintain, organize and keep the Association operating on a day to day bases. It is to those that we dedicate this section.

Thank you.

A special thank you to the business and individuals of Williams Lake that have supported us.

* Especially in these difficult times, buy locally and support our neighbours and friends. *
