The Columbia Valley Pioneer acquired The Invermere Valley Echo on July 1.

If you are a subscriber to the Echo you will be contacted in order to arrange for a refund of the unused portion of your subscription. We thank you for your support of The Echo and everyone at The Pioneer looks forward to continuing to serve you for many years to come.
