LISTER
Is a small and rural community located just 6 kilometers south of Creston in the rolling hills of the Creston Valley and just north of Canada/United States border. It was founded as Camp Lister and named after colonel Fred Lister, who later became a local Member of Legislature Assembly (MLA). During the First World War (WWI), Lister was the site of soldier training and passage settlement. Lister today is a agriculture and farming community and is basically a bedroom community as well as suburb for residents who are mostly employed and work in Creston.
