Creston’s Kelly Vandenberghe is running as the BC Conservative candidate for the Kootenay-Central riding in the October 19 provincial election. 

Vandenberghe currently serves on the Regional District of Central Kootenay Board of Directors as the Director for Electoral Area C. He has also served as an elected official in Alberta and built a successful career leading a heavy equipment auction company.
