Help Cheer up Kamloops T
he KTW Christmas Cheer Fund campaign is back, raising money for five local organizations that provide much-needed services in the community. Thanks to the generous people of Kamloops, more than $150,000 has been raised since KTW adopted the fund in 2014.
Funds raised through the Cheer Fund this year will support the Y Women’s Emergency Shelter, New Life Community Kamloops, Family Tree Family Centre, Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre and Sensational Soups.
Women’s shelter
New Life Community Kamloops is open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., providing a safe and welcoming environment and meeting with people to help identify and then meet their needs.
The Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre helps people who have experienced trauma overcome and move forward. Its clients come from all walks of life and the violence can be sexual, battering or criminal-harassing. Funds have also been used to provide snacks and meals to children and youth clients who often attend appointments malnourished.
The Family Tree Family Centre works with families living in isolation, feeling judged and not connected to their community. Many are living in poverty, experiencing violence and mental-health or addiction issues. Through a daily drop-in program, families can access social and professional support, educational workshops, case management, advocacy, a healthy lunch, a childdevelopment consultant, referrals and access to its large donation room.
Sensational Soups is run out of Mt. Paul United Church, a program created by several retired Kamloopsians who volunteer to provide healthy lunches in a safe environment every Monday and Thursday. It is completely reliant on donations and the two-dozen volunteers have often used their own money to finance it.
The Y Women’s Emergency Shelter provides shelter to women and children fleeing violence. Every year, several hundred of them will come to the shelter and several hundred more will receive nonresidential care and counselling.
Donations to the KTW Christmas Cheer Fund can be made online at www.kamloopsthisweek.com/cheer. An email address is required. Donations can also be made at the KTW office, 1365B Dalhousie Dr., Mondays to Fridays between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. Fill out the form below.

Spirit of Christmas T
he Spirit of Christmas will roll down the tracks in December as the Kamloops Heritage Railway Society hosts its festival holiday excursion. The whimsical one-hour ride aboard the historic 2141 steam engine features wintery views, hot chocolate, cookies and carols. The train will be adorned with thousands of lights for the occasion, while the coaches will be decorated. Santa Claus will be ready for boys and girls once they return from their ride, so parents are advised to bring a camera. It runs on Dec. 8, 9, 15, 16 and 18 at 7 p.m. and Dec. 10 and 17 at 4 p.m. and travels for eight kilometres for just over an hour. Reservations are required. Adults ages 19 to 64 pay $29, seniors 65 and older are $26, kids ages three to 17 are $17 and toddlers are $5. Families, with two adults and two kids, pay $83. Guests are advised to dress warm. The station is located downtown at 3-510 Lorne St. Tickets and more information are available from kamrail.com/winter-railtours.

Light up the Nights
T
he BC Wildlife Park is known for less growls and more glow come the holiday season. The park’s annual tradition, Wildlights, sees thousands of lights lit up throughout the property east of Kamloops.
It returns this season from Dec. 15 to Jan. 7 for its 20th year. Uncle Chris the Clown will bring his energy to the park, as well, entertaining children, while favourites such as the maze and the Wildlife Express miniature train will be featured.
All of this is augmented by the popular campfires, around which families can gather with hot chocolate. Wildlights will run nightly from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., but is closed Christmas Day. For more information, go online to bcwildlife.org/eventlist.htm.

a t n a S t e r c e S te a r e Op T
he Centre for Seniors Information is once again presenting its Operation Secret Santa project for low income, isolated seniors. The centre identifies seniors who are low income, have little to no family that live close and are fairly isolated. For most of the seniors in the program, Secret Santa’s contribution is the only gift they receive all year. The centre is looking for community donations such as shampoo, lotion, soap, razors, socks, coffee, gift cards, kitchen items, scarfs, slippers, gloves, books, coffee mugs, picture
frames, manicure sets, large piece puzzles, crossword books and bath products. Local schools participate, making beautiful handmade cards and handwritten letters for the seniors. Operation Secret Santa will run until Dec. 23. The Centre for Seniors Information is in the Brock Shopping Centre at Tranquille Road and Desmond Street.
If this project is something you would like to contribute to this year, call 778-470-6000 or email brandi@csikamloops.ca.

n Nov. 25, the jolly old elf will be hosting a parade. The annual Kamloops Santa Claus Parade will fill the streets of the downtown core from 10:30 a.m. into the afternoon as Santa and dozens of community groups get in the Christmas spirit by riding on festive floats amid music, dancers, clowns and more. As per tradition, Santa will be woken up in Kamloops Square, at Seymour Street and Second Avenue, at 10:30 a.m. Once he is feeling energetic, which is usually by 11 a.m., Santa and his many admirers will jump on their floats and join the parade. The floats will leave St. Paul Street at Second Avenue and travel north on Second. At Victoria Street, the parade will turn right (east) and amble down the city’s main thoroughfare, which will be lined by large crowds on both sides.

The Value of Invaluable Hope
ip some local wines while ticking off items on your holiday shopping list during the Kamloops Wine Trail’s upcoming Holiday Open House. The event, which takes place on Nov. 25 and Nov. 26, features complimentary wine tastings, artisan vendors, holiday shopping, door prizes, hay wagon rides, treats and more. Festivities will get underway from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at Harper’s Trail Estate Winery (2761 Shuswap Road), Monte Creek Ranch Winery (2420 Miner’s Bluff Rd), and Privato Vineyard and Winery (5505 Westsyde Road). The event parallels the opening of Woodward’s Christmas Trees opening weekend, which is located next to Privato in Westsyde. The open house participants will have the opportunity to win a case of 12 bottles of local wine by snapping specific photos at each winery and logging it on a passport. Those who post photos to social media using the hashtag #kamloopswinetrail will be given an extra entry into the contest. The passport can be downloaded online at kamloopswinetrail. com/events.
