Our Mission
Welcome to Fernie Connect, the heartbeat of our vibrant town. Nestled amidst the majestic mountains, Fernie is not just a place of natural beauty but also a community teeming with passion, spirit, and connection. Our mission at Fernie Connect is to encapsulate this essence and provide a platform where every resident can discover the myriad opportunities our town offers.
Fernie Connect was born out of a simple idea: to make it effortless for our community members to find and engage with clubs, groups, non-profits, sports, and events happening in town. We believe that by fostering these connections, we can strengthen the bonds that make Fernie truly special.
Whether you're a long-time resident or a newcomer eager to immerse yourself in local activities, Fernie Connect is your go-to hub. From the adrenaline rush of mountain biking clubs to the serene gatherings of art enthusiasts, from non-profit initiatives making a difference to local sports events bringing us together in friendly competition – we have it all cataloged and curated for you.
But Fernie Connect is more than just a directory. It's a reflection of our town's spirit. It's where stories of passion meet tales of friendship. It's where you can not only discover events but also become a part of them, contributing to Fernie's rich tapestry of experiences.
Join us in this journey of discovery and connection. Dive deep into the offerings, engage with fellow residents, and let's together ensure that the spirit of Fernie continues to flourish. After all, it's the connections we make and the memories we create that define our community.
Thank you for being a part of Fernie Connect.
