🏗️ Progress Update: Splatsin Homes Show Home – Enderby

Big progress on site this week!

As of Friday, March 20, the engineered floor system is now complete, and the crew is hard at work sheeting the floor with ¾” tongue and groove plywood—supplied through our joint venture with Tolko Forest Products.

This marks a major step forward in the build and sets the stage for what’s next 👇

🔨 Next up: Installation of the timber panels

It’s exciting to see the vision for Splatsin Homes taking shape right here on Vernon Street. Stay tuned as we continue to build momentum!

Growing something meaningful 🌱

Today, the Splatsin Homes team is on the ground building garden beds in partnership with the Splatsin daycare (Tsm7aksaltn Teaching Centre) and the Splatsin Food Sovereignty Committee.

These garden beds will support local food growing for both community members and children at the daycare—creating hands-on opportunities to learn, connect with the land, and strengthen food security.

The Splatsin Tsm7aksaltn Society plays an important role in early childhood development, integrating culture, language, and community into everyday learning —and this project builds on that foundation in a practical, meaningful way.

For Splatsin Homes, this is about more than building houses—it’s about building community.

Splatsin Homes Show Home Construction Update 🏠

Friday the 13th was another productive day for the Splatsin Homes construction team at its show home site on Vernon Street in Enderby.

Crews installed the engineered wood I-joist (TGI) floor system on top of the ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) foundation, marking another key step in the construction of the Splatsin Homes show home. This combination helps create homes that are strong, energy-efficient, and built for long-term durability.

Progress on the Shuswap North Okanagan Rail Trail

Crews from SDC Yucwmenlúcwu Civil Construction have been hard at work in Grindrod, installing farm fencing along sections of the Shuswap North Okanagan Rail Trail.

This fencing helps prevent motorized vehicles from accessing the trail while supporting safe and responsible use for walkers, cyclists, and other non-motorized users.

It’s great to see the team making strong progress as this important project continues to take shape.

History Reclaimed. Community Shared.

Two handcrafted benches made from reclaimed wood from the historic Baxter Bridge have been placed at the Splatsin Community Centre.

Built by the team at Splatsin Development Corporation (SDC) and Splatsin Homes, the benches were completed and delivered on March 10, 2026.

The wood used to build them comes from the former Baxter Bridge near Enderby. When the bridge was decommissioned, SDC salvaged the untreated bridge decking and is now transforming the wood into benches that will be placed at locations across Secwépemcúl’ecw.

Each bench carries a piece of local history — giving new life to the wood while creating welcoming places to sit, gather, and reflect.

Next time you’re at the Splatsin Community Centre, stop by, take a look, and have a seat.

🏠 Splatsin Homes Show Home Construction Update

Work continues to move ahead on the Splatsin Homes show home, with major progress made on site this week.

As of Tuesday, March 10, ground preparation is nearly complete, and slab preparation has now been finished.

The foundation area includes a full radon gas mitigation system designed to safely vent any potential radon from beneath the home. This helps prevent health risks associated with radon exposure and reflects the high standards being built into every Splatsin home.

All stages of construction are being completed under the review of professional engineers and BC building inspectors, ensuring the project meets all safety and building code requirements.

Crews will now be moving ahead with the concrete slab pour and floor system installation in the coming days.

Exciting progress as the first Splatsin Homes show home continues to take shape. Stay tuned for more updates!

Welcoming a new future builder to the Splatsin Homes team.

Splatsin Homes is proud to welcome Kh’Alen Jones (pictured on the left), a Splatsin band member who recently started working with our team as part of his carpentry training.

Kh’Alen is currently a Grade 11 student at A.L. Fortune Secondary School in Enderby and is enrolled in the Entry Level Carpentry Program at Okanagan College in Salmon Arm, where he attends classes four days a week. As part of his training, he will spend one day each week working with the Splatsin Homes crew, gaining hands-on experience in residential construction.

Kh’Alen joined the team on Friday, March 6, and we’re excited to support him as he develops his skills. Our plan is to register him as an apprentice as he continues progressing in the program.

Providing opportunities for Splatsin members to gain experience, training, and careers in the trades is an important part of the vision behind Splatsin Homes. It’s great to see young community members getting involved and building valuable skills for the future.

Please join us in welcoming Kh’Alen to the team.

Progress continues at Splatsin Homes.

Splatsin Homes has received its first shipment of foam blocks, marking another important step forward as preparations continue for upcoming home construction.

These large blocks are now being stored in the warehouse and will be precision-cut to form the insulated wall systems used in the Splatsin Homes building process. Once the warehouse is fully stocked, it will hold approximately 100 foam blocks, giving the team the ability to cut the components needed for 3–4 homes, including the Splatsin Homes show home.

The construction system being used is designed to create durable, energy-efficient homes that can be built efficiently and built to last.

Seeing the materials arrive and the warehouse begin to fill is a clear sign that Splatsin Homes is continuing to move forward and preparing for the next stage of development.

The long-term vision for Splatsin Homes is to support Splatsin, other Indigenous communities, and others seeking high-quality housing solutions that are practical, sustainable, and scalable.

More updates will be shared as construction progresses on the Splatsin Homes show home and preparations continue for future builds.
