The Peachland Making Waves Mural Fes tival has announced the entertainment lineup for their inaugural event set to take place over the Labour Day weekend. In addition to the reveal of three completed murals, the fest will also include live music with local and guest artists, an open-air dance fusion experience, interac tive street performances, art-making for kids, an artisan market and demon strations.“Weare hoping to make this a full 180-degree expe rience for all your senses,” said Making Waves mural committee chair, Shelley Sweeney. “Public art ex tends beyond the murals, which provide an additional visual experience for visi tors, by combining music, dancing and kids’ enter tainment, it’s a unique street party atmosphere.”
The second mural for the Making Waves Mural Festival was completed last weekend by Okanagan/Sylix artist Sheldon Pierre Louis.
“We too, as political reps, fighting for our water is something we do quite often, fighting for our water sheds, plus my work has been centred around salmon for maybe the last 10 years,” Louis told the View. “My family have ancestorial connections to one of the hereditary salmon chiefs, who is directly related to the Armstrong family in Penticton, so learning that his tory and understanding the importance of the Columbia River and then, as history went, understanding the im pacts of all of the dams on the Columbia River, how it impacted our salmon . . . with this mural I wanted to show the protocol of giving thanks to our four food chiefs, and the salmon is one of our four food chiefs.”

Louis said the watershed alliance group were aware of the four food chiefs and suggested that theme also be incorporated into the mural. The completed mural fea tures two of the food chiefs, the n’tyxtix (salmon) and siya (Saskatoon berry), which is also a representation of the youth.
Adults carry out the protocols of offering tobacco to the water while little ones watch and mimic and learn, saysAccordingLouis. to Louis, the salmon in Syilx culture rep resents the “getting it done” or “the worker” which speaks to the work and effort that is needed to care for ourLouiswaters.says the theme is locally relevant as Peachland is a significant salmon spawning area.

Second work for Making Waves Mural Festival now completed
The mural also incorporates the image of a young toddler making an offering to the water and salmon, which was taken from a photo of Louis’ two-year-old son.“It drew a parallel in passing those protocols on. I wanted to share that caring for the salmon isn’t just about one generation doing it, you have to teach all gen erations responsibility.”
Okanagan/Syilx visual artist Sheldon Pierre Louis has completed the second mural to be featured in the upcoming Making Waves Mural Festival, set to take place at various locations over the Labour Day week end. The first mural for the fest went up at the Legion over a week ago, and there is still one more to be created before the festival kicks off. Louis created his first murals over 20 years ago for a mural fest in Vernon and he typically produces at least one or two murals each summer, although much of his time is taken up with various commissioned works. In conjunction with his partner, the multi-disciplinary artist is currently working on a didactics project for BC Parks that will be featured at Kalamalka Lake Provin cial Park; elsewhere in the province he is also working on a large Interior Health project that will include 12 canvas paintings. In addition to a constant stream of commissioned work, Louis is also serving a third council term for the Okanagan Indian Band. Louis’ water-themed mural can be found on a wall of Peachland Pharmacy; it was sponsored by the Peach land Watershed Protection Alliance (PWPA). Louis became involved with Peachland’s mural festi val after the PWPA approached him to see if he would be interested in creating something around water and waterLouisprotection.wasfamiliar with the organization, having once attended a PWPA engagement session at the com munity centre and joined them for a subsequent site visit to the watershed.

There is a wonderful motto – It’s not why we can’t, it’s how we can, and Linda was the very epitome of that approach to doing things. She seemed to know how ev erything in the municipality worked and she used that knowledge to be helpful. Since those days of Centenni al, there have been other occasions when I have needed information or help, and that warm and ready helpful ness has always been there. Even though I thought I knew Linda quite well and knew that cycling was a passion for her, I did not know that she regularly cycled up Princeton Avenue to come to work. That is impressive indeed! The words that “she will be missed,” so often used when someone retires or leaves seem very inadequate to describe Linda’s leaving, but hopefully it will be the prelude to a wonderful and long retirement doing all the things that were not possible for her as a working per son.Iwish her all the best!
Nicholas knew how everything worked
I have a few things to share with fellow Peachlanders. First and foremost I just love Peachland! Second how do we keep Peachland Peachland? My family and I moved from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Thunder Bay, Ontario and then to Kelowna when Kelowna wasWeKelowna.movedto Peachland because Kelowna was becoming just another big city with big city problems. If we consider approving the kind of projects that will replace Todd’s campground then Peachland is on the next train to overdevelopment. How do we keep Peachland Peachland? We take our rights and privileges to vote seriously. We take an active role in finding out who is running for office in the upcoming civic elections and take them to task on how we want Peachland to look like in 10 years. Is there an infrastructure capable of more and more de velopment?Weshould have a tax base capable of supporting what we have and building new and necessary projects like the proposed fire hall! When is enough enough? Vote – vote and let’s keep Peachland Peachland. Moderate development is not a four-storey tower on Beach Ave. Jim Kenny, Peachland
A goodly amount of these endeavours involved Lin da’s Operations Department, especially getting items and news up on the Peachland website, and so I was often at Linda’s door up at the Public Works Yard with requests.Nomatter what else Linda had on the go, she always welcomed me with warmth and helpfulness.
Four-storey “tower” on Beach not moderate
Don Wigfield, Peachland
Dear Editor, How wonderful to read, in last week’s edition, Linda Nicholas’ recollections of her 28 years working for the District of Peachland, but sad to know that she will be leaving. I was a member of the six-person Centennial Committee, charged with organizing and encouraging events to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Peachland’s Incorporation back in 2009, as well as urging various businesses to create and market Centennial Souvenirs.

Bennett’s vision for Peachland includes:
“Peachland is a beautiful community but is suffering from underinvestment and a lack of affordable homes for first time buyers and working families. We need to invest in the things that Peachlanders want; rec reational facilities, sewer, water, sidewalks and social support for families and the elderly,” says Bennett. “I’ve watched my friends serve Peachland as coun cillors, and I’m proud of the work that the mayor and council do. I may not agree with every decision they make, but I believe they serve with integrity and for the benefit of our community. I feel it’s my turn to step up and serve my community, too.”
On Sep 19 the municipali ty will declare the election by voting, said Jennifer Sawatzky, director of corporate services and chief election officer.

fair!
Can you believe we had 26 volunteers at our last general meeting? What a turnout! It’s such a wonderful thing to have a room full of people who are all passionate and excited about the return of our beloved fair. We provide our volunteers and fair judges with a lovely luncheon - that helps to keep them coming back year after year! This year’s lunch will be catered by the 50 Plus Activity Centre as they raise funds towards the building of The Hub. It’s so nice to give and to receive. The 50 Plus volunteers will also be selling tea and pie on Saturday from 2 p.m. onward - make sure you stop in and get yourself a piece or two and a cuppa. We are so thankful that the Peachland Fire Brigade will be assisting with our set up and take down this year. Having local community groups is such a great way to support one another. We also have some wonderful local sponsors who have contributed to our fair. We had lost some sponsors over the last couple of years so it is so nice to have others step up to contribute. Our entertainment this year will also be featuring local talent – it’s so wonderful they are willing to give of their time for your listening pleasure!
