# Growth Desk source note — 2026-08-13 Greenwood film-services directory

## Angle
A practical film-services/vendor directory for Greenwood: after a location scout notices heritage streets or Boundary scenery, the city still needs opt-in local contacts for rooms, meals, trades, rentals, transport, storage, guides, private locations and neighbouring support. This is a readiness proposal, not an announcement that productions are coming.

## Editorial cautions
- Do not imply Greenwood has an official film office, confirmed production, confirmed permit pathway, or any vendor capacity until local contacts opt in.
- Private-property locations, public-property access, street closures, drones, animals, pyrotechnics, insurance, privacy and neighbourhood impacts need approval/permissions before promotion.
- Fire season, smoke, winter roads, water restrictions, accommodation limits and small-staff capacity should remain visible constraints.

## Human follow-up needed
Names and permission-cleared contacts for accommodations, restaurants/caterers, trades, drivers, storage/warehouse spaces, makers, guides, private-property owners open to inquiries, a City permit/public-space contact, neighbouring Grand Forks/Osoyoos/Kelowna support contacts, and anyone with prior production experience in the Boundary.
