At 12:00pm Monday, the Alexis Creek community along with the Alexis Creek RCMP and CRD Area 'K' Director Rick Mumford gathered together to celebrate the grand opening of both the Chilcotin Tourism Center and the dedication of a Remembrance Day plaque.

The dedication of the Remembrance Day plaque included the playing of the ‘Last Post’ and an aboriginal smudging ceremony and the reciting of a prayer.
