Organizers of an international triathlon held in Penticton for three decades have approached the City of Kamloops to see if it is interested in putting together a bid.
City administrator David Trawin said Ironman Canada organizers recently spoke with officials in the parks and recreation department.
An event spokesman recently told a Vernon newspaper that shortlisted communities include Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna, Whistler and Vernon.
The report said Penticton is entering into a new partnership with another triathlon group and parting ways with World Triathlon Corp., which owns the event.
