Building legacies and friendships is second nature to an amazing cohort of service clubs and volunteers that work together to bring this town to life. Meeting people with similar interests is easy through Hope’s many social clubs and events. Whether it be on a hiking trail with the Hope Outdoor Group, grilling up burgers with the Hope Lions Club, or watching the stock car races with the Hope Motorsports Group, there is something for everyone! 

Safe neighborhoods and small class sizes at the neighbourhood schools, just for starters, make this community a young family’s ideal place to raise children! In addition to that, there are many recreational opportunities available; such as a multipurpose Recreational Facility, two swimming-friendly lakes within 3km of town centre, and a third one a short drive away. There is also a skate park, a mountain bike skills park, and Manning Park Resort, hailed as the epitome of an accessible four-season resort, is only a 45 minute drive away. If artistic pursuits are more to your liking, Hope & District Arts Council operates the Art Machine, a thriving arts studio offering a variety of weekly art classes that include drawing, collage, painting, pottery, crafts and more!
