ey swayel everyone,

Please see attached our new updated poster - we have secured another sponsor today!

Thank you to Peters First Nation Band for their contribution, it is greatly appreciated!

We have higher than expected utility connections to pay, movers, entrance stairs with ramp and a deck to work on too. Everyone's support
is valued and appreciated!

April 1st the modular was delivered. We have had many trades people on site and will be here next week too.

It is going to be another week before all the utilities are completed, then we can seriously move in! Movers will be scheduled to bring over our furniture from storage units first then we will be moving items from our two storage containers still at Squiala First Nation.

Looking forward to announcing when our doors are officially open to everyone! Hopefully within by April 20th! We will let you know

have a wonderful long weekend!

Ey Swayel Sto:lo Chiefs, Council and Community Members

The modular is scheduled to arrive to lot 3 - 7201 Vedder Road on Coqualeetza Grounds the week of March 30th, 2026. It has been 19 years since Coqualeetza Cultural Ed Centre left the grounds but will be home again!

We are still fundraising - funding had to be secured through a loan agreement with TD Trust for $130,000.00 to assist with purchase price of the modular. Additional fundraising has been necessary to cover : the move from 2 storage units, 2 storage containers and office bldg 10; payment for utility connections such as BC Hydro, Fortis Gas, a plumber, an electrician; for the construction of a deck, two sets of stairs, a ramp and entrance covers, as well as much needed furniture, office equipment, supplies, filing cabinets, window coverings and much more.
