Harrison Hot Springs – Village of Harrison Hot Springs residents are invited to share perspectives on the impacts of tourism on the community. The anonymous survey should take approximately 10-15 minutes and after, you’ll have the opportunity to enter a draw for 1 of 3 $50 gift cards to a local grocery store of your choice. Your participation in this survey will help provide valuable perspectives to support the development of a master thesis on understanding how BC resort municipalities are addressing the impacts of tourism within their communities.
