Overview
The Pender Islands Community Parks and Recreation Commission (PIPRC) is run by eight local volunteer Parks Commissioners appointed by the Capital Regional District (CRD) and by the Director representing the Southern Gulf Islands Electoral Area. It manages community parks and trails for the use by residents of North and South Pender Islands in British Columbia, Canada and by visitors to our islands. It also maintains trails on highway right of ways to viewpoints and ocean accesses. The Commission is also responsible for the organization and conduct of recreational programs on the Pender Islands.
