Loving Kimberley’s active lifestyle and small-town vibe

Angela and Perry Symes moved to Kimberley in 2013 from Oyen, Alberta, a small community west of Calgary. Five years later, they opened Black Dog Cycle and Ski where they sell, rent and service skis and bikes for the region’s outdoor-oriented lifestyle.
