I haven’t been to Dawson Creek in British Columbia but I have only heard good things about this peaceful community from a friend who is settled there. She often tells me how much she loves her beautiful family-oriented city. Dawson Creek is the natural transportation center for the entire Peace Region and Northeastern British Columbia.

Although Dawson Creek is surrounded by rolling hills and prairies and is a community built on the stability of agriculture, it is often bustling with tourists as it marks the start of the Alaska Highway at the Mile Zero Post. The popular activities in Dawson Creek, British columbia during summer include visiting nearby provincial parks for hiking and camping, swimming in the surrounding lakes, biking, boating, fishing and wildlife viewing. Not to mention that the start of Spring here is marked by Sportsman’s Club Gun show.

This year the annual Sportsman’s Club Gun Show in Dawson Creek scheduled for April 4th and 5th 2009. One of the most popular events in Dawson Creek, annual gun show attracts participants from all over Canada. Usually there are about 155 tables in the Kin Arena that showcase the latest paraphernalia related to archery, knives, firearms, ammunition, reloading, and taxidermy etc.
