An Idea Fair will be held on Thursday, May 12, from 3:30 to  6:30 p.m. at Cameron Park, 2345 Richter St.

The aim of the fair will be to identify activities and uses that are compatible with the heritage building, Cameron Park and the surrounding neighbourhood.

Once information has been gathered on potential uses, it is the 肠颈迟测sa国际传媒檚 intention to seek a private or not-for-profit partner to assist the city in financing capital improvements for the building and adjoining site.

Residents are also encouraged to share their input and join the discussions online from May 9  through 21 at .

Cameron House was built in 1928. It is a 1.5-storey, log construction home located on the Guisachan property in Kelownasa国际传媒檚 South Pandosy neighbourhood.

Once the home of a prominent local family, Cameron House holds special significance to the community. Valued for its unusual architectural style, landscaped park setting and role in community life now and throughout its history, the revitalization of this heritage building has the potential to contribute to the vibrancy of the neighbourhood.

Cameron House is a Kelowna heritage asset listed on the Citysa国际传媒檚 Heritage Register. Over the years the building has housed several tenants, including most recently a childrensa国际传媒檚 daycare. The building is currently unoccupied and in need of extensive upgrades before being suitable for occupancy.
