Have you noticed something new on Castanet? We've added a Kamloops page.

"We've been ramping up our Kamloops coverage for sometime and now we have a news page for the City," says Castanet News Editor, and former Kamloops' resident,Trevor Rockliffe.

Castanet editorial staff have been getting requests from readers in Kamloops and the Thompson-Nicola Region for more news coverage and we are answering the need states the News Editor.

"From City Hall to the fire department, RCMP and the Regional District we have reached out to many key organizations and government offices in the area so we will be on top of local news as it happens when it happens, and we will update the Kamloops page as news happens."

Rockliffe is also asking for help from people in Kamloops.

"Our readers in the Okanagan send us news tips, photos and video all of the time. They make us who we are and it gives us more eyes on the streets. If people see news send us a tip or better yet shoot a photo or a video and send it to [email protected], we pay for news and we'll post it on the Kamloops page."

Castanet also has a great reader photo gallery and people are encouraged to send in outdoor photos of sunsets and animals. If you have a topic you'd like to bring up you can also send in letters to the editor.
