Fernie Chamber of Commerce We’re in this together

Summer in Fernie is certainly going to look a little different this year as our community adjusts to the “new normal” brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. We all want summer to be enjoyable for everyone as we respect the provincial health guidelines and physical distancing, while exploring our town’s outdoors, activities, shops, restaurants and attractions.

When you arrive in town, staff at the Fernie Visitor Information Centre will be available to help answer any of your questions. We know you want to help keep Fernie safe and we want you to know that Fernie is doing everything possible to keep you safe as well. Our local businesses have gone above and beyond to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. Much time, effort and money has been spent on measures such as sanitizer stations, plexiglass screens on counters, the use of masks, and directional signage to facilitate physical distancing. Front line staff have been re-trained in new COVID-19 protocols. Please phone ahead to local businesses if you wish to learn more about their current operations and new procedures. In return, our local community asks visitors to Fernie to help us keep the curve flat with COVID-19. Please adhere to physical distancing of at least six feet when interacting with people outside your bubble. If you have shown any symptoms of illness in the last two weeks before your trip to Fernie, please stay home and reschedule. Most local operators are offering flexible and compassionate cancellation policies.

Above all, lets be kind and patient with each other. We are all in this together and there a lot of new things to get used to. Lets have an awesome and safe summer. We got this Fernie!
