-We have done alot more than just gone for the robotics thing. Our volleyball, basketball, soccer and ski/snowboarding teams have gone to provincials numerous times. In fact the senior girls basketball Provincials have been held in Fernie the last two years (2010 and 2011). We are known as the Fernie Falcons, and are usually very high ranking in our East West Kootenays
