Area Data:

The Village of Harrison Hot Springs is a small community at the southern end of Harrison Lake in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia. It is a member of the Fraser Valley Regional District; its immediate neighbour is the District of Kent, and included in it is the town of Agassiz. It is a resort community known for its hot springs and has just over 1500 people. It is named after Benjamin Harrison, a former deputy governor for the Hudson's Bay Company.

History:

The Village of Harrison Hot Springs has been a small resort community since 1886, when the opening of the Canadian Pacific Railway brought the lakeside springs within a short carriage ride of the transcontinental mainline. Its first promotion as a resort was known as St. Alice's Well. 

Although the resort flourished in a low-key fashion for years after hoteliers exploited this discovery, the Village of Harrison Hot Springs was not incorporated until 1949. Its namesake hot springs are a significant attraction for tourists who stay at the village's spa resort.

The hot springs themselves were originally used and revered by the Sts'Ailes (Chehalis) First Nations people who live along the Harrison River nearby. There are two hot springs, the "Potash," with a temperature of 40 °C, and the "Sulphur", which is 65 °C. According to Harrison Hot Springs Resort, the waters average 1300 ppm of dissolved mineral solids, one of the highest concentrations of any mineral spring. This hot spring is one of several lining the Lillooet River and Harrison Lake valley. The northernmost of the Lillooet River hot springs is at Meager Creek, north of Whistler, with another well-known one to the east of Whistler at Skookumchuck Hot Springs, midway between Pemberton and Port Douglas. One feature of this chain of hot springs is that the Harrison Hot Springs vent is the most sulfuric, and there is consistently less sulphur content as one goes northwards, with the springs at Meager Creek having almost no scent.

Economy:

Harrison Hot Springs' major economy is tourism concerning the hot springs, with over half of employment found in service industries, with much of the rest found split through retail, government, construction and manufacturing are represented, and little activity in other areas.

Attractions:

Harrison Hot Springs' greatest attraction is its titular springs, of course. Still, it also has the Ranger Station Public Art Gallery, a marina with jet boat tours of the lake available, a nine-hole golf course, and is the closest access to Sasquatch Provincial Park. In July, Harrison Hot Springs hosts the Harrison Festival of the Arts, ten-day world music and art celebration. The annual Festival features free outdoor beach concerts, ticketed evening performances, a children's day, visual art exhibits, various workshops, and two-weekend art markets. The Harrison Festival also presents ten to twelve professional performing arts events between September and May. "Source Wikipedia"
