It’s time for… GUESS THAT BATHROOM!

Why? Why not! Make your guesses of 1, 2, and 3 in the comments! Answers will be revealed… at some point! This is a high caliber Instagram post and we will not tolerate hearing otherwise.

All 3 images are from inside the bathroom of a local business in Kamloops, they could be restaurants, cafes, stores, grocers, gyms… who’s to say? (We are.)

Okay ready, set, guess!

Hey friends!

We’re already working on the May issue of Yours, Monthly; So posting the rest of the events we had listed for April seems crazy for us despite it only being halfway through the month!

On the events page, you’ll notice there’s not much there. We are doing our best to improve this and make sure our readers are the best informed on what’s happening in the community! Help us help you by letting us know where you find out about events, how you keep track, and what we can do for YOU to make it as easy as possible to support local.

P.S., please send us or tag us in the comments any post you see about a local event happening this May that support local business, local bands, or local artists in Kamloops.

Thanks Kamloops! 🌟
