Resident displaced after fire destroys Smith Way home JOANNE LAYH

M&D Fusion/15

Four Peachlanders are without a place to live following a house fire that caused substantial damage to a Smith Way home.

Peachland Fire and Rescue were called out at 12:50 a.m. Saturday morning for a structure fire that was already fully involved when the

first arriving crews arrived on scene.

“It was already through the roof and out the windows on every floor,” Peachland fire chief Dennis Craig told the View.

Craig said upon arrival crews confirmed the four occupants of the Continued on Page 2

house had gotten out safely, although BC Ambulance did have to transport two of the occupants to hospital for smoke inhalation.

One pet remains unaccounted for.

“It was a challenging fire just based on the level of involvement when we got there,” Craig said.

Crews were able to contain the fire to the single property, however, the houses on

either side of the property were threatened and did receive mostly heat damage and some smoke damage as well, Craig said, adding that the neighbouring homes did not receive any water damage.

Crews remained on scene until 6 a.m.

“As the house came in on itself and roof fires are very challenging to fully extinguish, we were there quite a while trying to extinguish hot spots,” Craig said.

A cedar hedge on two sides of the house also ignited, which caused concern for the neighbouring properties and houses.

The home sustained substantial damage.

“This was a large fire, for sure,” Craig said.

The residents of the home are currently in the care of Emergency Support Services.

The cause of the fire is currently unknown and remains under investigation.

“We’ve initially narrowed it down to the back side of the residence and that’s where we’ll focus our attention on first and then we’ll go from there,” Craig said.

The high risk arrest happened in the Glenrosa neighbourhood of West Kelowna.

Back on Sunday, August 11 an adult male was sent to hospital with an apparent gunshot wound to his lower extremity area after an incident outside a residence located in the 7200-block of Highway 97 South.

A report of the shooting was received by West Kelowna RCMP that day at approximately 5:47 p.m.

The victim was treated and later released from hospital and continues to recover from his injury at this time, according to Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey, spokesperson for the Kelowna Regional RCMP Detachment.

“As a direct result of the actions of our front line officers at the scene, and the continued investigation led by the West Kelowna RCMP GIS team, a prime suspect was identified by police,” Cpl. O’Donaghey said.

The 31-year-old West Kelowna man remains in police custody at this time and faces a number of potential charges.

OBWB renews call for permission to continue rototilling invasive milfoil weeds

RED ROTOTILLER ON frozen Osoyoos Lake.

PEACHLAND VIEW The Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) is renewing its call for permission to continue rototilling invasive milfoil weeds at public beaches and boating areas.

Last fall, in an effort to protect Rocky Mountain Ridged Mussels (RMRM), the province ruled that the board was not allowed to rototill within 100 metres of any live RMRM or shell fragment, Corinne Jackson, communications director for OBWB, said in a press release last week.

The federal government recently deferred uplisting RMRM to endangered, pending further study and consultation. Now that the RMRM is no longer under immediate consideration for an endangered listing, the OBWB hopes the province will reverse their prohibition against milfoil rototilling.

An earlier proposal to have RMRM listed under the federal Species at Risk Act would have greatly increased restrictions of the water board’s milfoil control program, Jackson said.

“We are very pleased with this decision.

It allows more flexibility for us to manage invasive milfoil, keep the beaches clean, and protect water quality,” said Anna Warwick Sears, executive director for the water board.

“Milfoil degrades the environment for all species, as well as the public’s access to the lake.

Now we just need the province to renew our permit to operate in our historical treatment

areas. We understand that this is within the discretion of the B.C. Minister of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development.”

Milfoil is an invasive weed that was introduced to the Okanagan in the 1970s, possibly by a boater that brought it from another region, or someone dumping their aquarium contents in the lake. The OBWB says after experimenting with various control methods in the 70s and 80s, the province found the most effective method to be winter rototilling, which removes the plant’s root system and reduces the density and extent of infested areas.

Sears says there are three items the OBWB wants to see addressed now: • A full public consultation process on listing the RMRM, with adequate notice and time to respond, and public meetings to discuss the implications of the listing for Okanagan communities; • An economic analysis conducted by the federal government, looking at how the SARA listing (and thus prohibitions on roto-tilling milfoil) will affect milfoil weed growth, impacts on water quality, beach access, tourism and the Okanagan economy, and • A permanent exemption by the province for the OBWB’s milfoil control activities, allowing the agency to continue to work along public beach and boating areas where it has been rototilling for over 30 years, representing only a small fraction of the entire lakeshore.

Climate change or climate emergency?

JOANNE LAYH Is climate change an emergency? The vast majority of climate scientists think so, and an increasing number of political leaders aren’t afraid to say they agree.

Back in June the House of Commons passed a motion to declare a national climate emergency in Canada. Put forward by Environment and Climate Change Minister Catherine McKenna, the motion passed with 186 votes to 63.

This announcement happened around the same time we learned Canada is warming at twice the global average, with northern Canada warming at nearly three times the global average.

However, one week after the announcement to ban single use plastics and a day after declaring a climate emergency, the Liberals announced (not for the first time) the approval of the Trans Mountain pipeline. So much for an emergency.

However, on a local level hundreds of municipal governments around the world have also declared a climate emergency, including over 50 Canadian municipalities.

Some segments of the media are also rethinking the terminology we use when we talk about what’s happening to our climate.

Earlier this year the UK’s Guardian newspaper explained why it’s changing the language it uses about our environment.

Instead of “climate change” the publication now prefers the terms “climate emergency, crisis or breakdown” and “global heating” over “global warming”.

Likewise, the publication’s style guide also promotes the use of “wildlife” rather than “biodiversity”, “fish

populations” instead of “fish stocks” and “climate science denier” rather than “climate sceptic”.

“We want to ensure that we are being scientifically precise, while also communicating clearly with readers on this very important issue,” said the editor-in-chief, Katharine Viner. “The phrase ‘climate change’, for example, sounds rather passive and gentle when what scientists are talking about is a catastrophe for humanity.”

Back in Canada, the CBC weeks later reported that in response to inquiries from its journalists, it too recently updated its language guide. “‘Climate crisis’ and ‘climate emergency’ are OK in some cases as synonyms for ‘climate change.’ But they’re not always the best choice... For example, ‘climate crisis’ could carry a whiff of advocacy in certain political coverage,” the guide now says.

Taking a less circumspect stance, Sean Holman, journalism professor at Calgary’s Mount Royal University, called on Canadian journalists to start reporting climate change as an emergency.

In doing so, he says he wants to be clear that he’s not recommending journalists become activists.

No one is suggesting journalists have a bias when reporting on the AIDS crisis or the opioid crisis or the housing crisis. By calling something an emergency we acknowledge that circumstances require urgent action.

If we agree with climate scientists, then I think we have to acknowledge there is an emergency that requires some kind of action. Using the term “climate emergency” doesn’t advocate for one action over another.

It’s just reporting the facts.

OPINION

What has been unleashed on the waterfront of Beach Avenue?

What happened? Two years ago the stretch of Beach Ave. from 13th Street to Trepanier Creek was a dog-free zone.

Now it is an unrestricted “doggie beach.” How did this happen with no public input?

I follow Peachland affairs in the View quite closely, and do not recall any reports of a discussion, let alone a decision, by city council to reverse past practice on this stretch of beach and allow dogs to be unleashed, literally, here.

Now the word is obviously out among dog-owners, who are f locking to our beach with their animals. What is the point of designating “doggie

beaches” elsewhere in town, when dog-owners have unrestricted access to this long section of our public beach?

This part of Peachland’s waterfront is very popular with locals and visitors alike because of the available parking and easy access to the water.

Have they been consulted about whether they wish to share the beach with dogs?

Besides the obvious concerns about sanitation and safety, there is a matter of principle here: for city council to completely change the character of a popular beach covertly, as seems to be the case here, echoes the 4th Avenue condo affair

where the concerns of a significant portion of the citizenry have been ignored and their legal protections bypassed.

I ask the mayor and the city council to address this issue again, if necessary but in a more transparent manner before next summer’s swimming season.

I also suggest that the residents and regular users of this stretch of beach speak out about this issue before our waterfront becomes a permanent “doggie beach.”

Jim Howard, Peachland

Logged areas are a big salad bowl for moose, resident says To the editor, I read with some curiosity in the Peachland View (Aug. 9, 2019) that Mr. Sotas has been in the “higher country” 50 times in the last year (approximately once a week) and has seen only one moose and one woodpecker. I go into the “higher country” three or four times a week and have seen pretty much normal amounts of game. Maybe a few more grouse than usual (confirmed by another outdoorsman), but pretty much the same. This is a long average, as I am 59 years old and have been in the woods of Summerland and Peachland all my life. It should be noted that there are far more moose now than when I was a kid. This is because moose favour lodgepole forests that have been logged. The logged areas are a big salad bowl for the moose.

I think you will see a lot less logging in the Peachland watershed, and forests in B.C. in general. If you follow the news at all, you will be aware of all the shutdowns at the mills. There are several factors at play here. The price of fibre (stumpage), tariffs, and markets are the main ones. Dealing with the beetle kill is having repercussions also.

The forests, including the Peachland watershed, were logged heavily to salvage beetle killed lumber.

Approximately 80 per cent of our

lodgepole forests were infected. This leaves little for the lumber companies to deal with now.

If these salvage operations had not been conducted it would have caused incredibly massive losses to the B.C. economy, and all that dead wood standing in the forest, if it ignited, would cause California scale wildfires, the likes of which we have never seen, and I hope we never do.

The Okanagan Mountain fire would pale by comparison.

Back to Mr. Sotas. It seems he is a member of the Peachland Watershed Protection Alliance (PWPA), who believe that logging in the Peachland watershed caused landslides and washouts the last couple of years.

They have forgotten that these were years of record-breaking runoffs.

Landslides and washouts will always occur under these conditions of extremely high water.

The Glen Lake Road behind Peachland washed out completely in 1972, long before there was any logging in the area. 1972 was another year of high snowpack and heavy runoff.

I wonder who the PWPA would blame for that washout? The PWPA also suggest that logging “got us...extinct caribou”. (Peachland View, Aug 2, 2019). There never have been any caribou in the Peachland watershed, and never will be! It’s not their kind

of habitat.

To Mr. Sotas, I say, keep your eyes peeled, the wildlife is definitely out there, same as always.

To the rest of the residents of Peachland I say it scares me to think that the PWPA actually acts as an advisory to our mayor and council.

Advice to council should be based on fact, and fact only. Tree hugging emotionalism should have no place in decision making.

If logging operations are curtailed in this area, it will be because of market factors.

The PWPA would like to claim vic-

tory, but we will know the truth.

I ask you, dear editor, to stop publishing articles from the PWPA and its members because of their misleading nature.

Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre coming soon to 50+ Activity Centre MADELEINE NIXON

knows what might happen next?

The story begins and everyone is requested to take their seats. Comfortable in their seats, the audience experiences a scripted interactive show filled with off the cuff and personalized moments that only come from improvisation. Since all the actors are Peachland volunteers and come from all walks of life, they possess little to no professional acting abilities, which often results in total chaos and huge laughs.

The plot thickens as dinner is savoured and cleared. It is now time for the next couple of acts and the mystery develops and clues are uncovered. Suspects are questioned and dessert is served. Audience members at their tables complete their vote cards of who they think done it.

After votes are collected and correct answers are set aside, the big solution is announced and from there the case is closed. The murderer confesses and the actors take a bow. There will also be a prize for the table with the best right answer and a prize for the table with the worst wrong answer.

As murder mystery is gaining in popularity, we have decided to conduct auditions this year for eight roles, four male and four female. Auditions will be held on September 10 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Gateway Amenity Room. For more information email madeleinenixon@outlook.com.

PEACHLAND ROTARY CLUB Peachland Rotary Club’s fourth annual Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre is coming up soon. There will be two performances this year, held on Sept. 28 and 28 at the 50+ Activity Centre. Tickets go on sale the week of August 13 and are available at peachlandrotary.com or Peachland Pharmacy. Tickets are $50 per person and include dinner and theatre.

Sit, relax and enjoy the picture-perfect views and have a sip of…scandal. That’s right, trouble is brewing in wine country. Big Red, the notorious owner of Red Red Winery, sure knows how to live up to her name. After all, she has a reputation for being bold, complicated and seductive. But just when we thought Big Red couldn’t cause any more trouble, she is found murdered on the eve of the annual wine festival!

Everyone is a suspect in this intoxicating crime.

Enter: the audience. As you arrive at the event during cocktail hour, you will notice that there are people who you may or may not know in attendance in character who are perhaps behaving strangely and interacting with each other and you. They’re introducing themselves and informing everyone of why they’re in attendance. Who

Terry Moore has always been interested in the artistic process but his other passion, the teaching of children, has preoccupied most of his life.

There is no greater joy for Terry than to create an image from clay, paint, pencil, or pastel. He appreciates the unique properties of clay and its ability to create life in space. Terry also enjoys

PEACHLAND ART GALLERY This is your last chance to view the ever-popular Artists in Studio featuring five local artists displaying and working each week in the gallery.

The gallery is housed in the historic school across from Swim Bay at 5684 Beach Ave. We are still open our summer hours, which is 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. You won’t want to miss this talented group displaying numerous mediums – printmak-

the way the strokes of a brush, pigment and water can give expression to images of nature.

Terry calls himself an emerging artist as he has only begun to more completely realize his artistic desires and ambitions.

He is a member of the Peachland Art Group and Passion4Art. Arlene Buick (Huxtable) has been interested in art since her pencil drawings at a young age.

Later, her focus was on art education at the University of Victoria and

she used it throughout her teaching career.

Now retired, she is exploring pen and ink, watercolours, pastels and acrylic painting.

The beauty of nature with all its colours and forms are inspiring to her. She enjoys exploring colour with dark contrasts. She is fascinated with the intricate pattern of tree branches and the emotional sunsets in the Okanagan. She is constantly trying new techniques and subjects to expand her artistic

talents.

Paula McLaughlin began working in watercolours and especially faces in the 1980s, being strongly influenced by her aunt, Edith Williams, a commissioned portrait artist in Boston, Massachusetts.

A message she likes to convey is the entire scene within a painting, including all the sensations within a scene, to ask the viewer to immerse themselves within the context of “the bigger picture.”

Having recently moved

to the Okanagan, Paula finds a wealth of material and many spectacular scenes of nature to use for her subjects and looks forward to developing further as a visual artist.

Maria Bayford loves colour and movement.

Her paintings are expressed in bold colours.

For Maria the process is intuitive, relaxing and all absorbing. She loves to be ‘pulled’ into the painting and let form and colour show her the way.

Maria likes her work to be provocative and

nuanced allowing the viewer to find their own resonance and interpretation. Maria’s work has been seen in several galleries and venues around the Okanagan area.

Maryke Bol cuts and carves an image from memory or imagination onto a matrix. She then applies colourful ink or paint and presses the matrix on to wet paper, resulting in an embossed ‘one of a kind’ original artwork.

Bol has shown her work worldwide in Seoul,

Antwerp, Bangkok, Toronto, Honolulu and The Hague. She has taught credited art courses at Sheridan College, Ontario. Her theme this week is music on paper.

Be sure to take the time to visit her at the gallery as she is happy to share her very interesting techniques and processes.

Our next exhibition titled “Impressions –

10/10” runs from Aug. 31 to Sept. 29 and features a well established and engaging group of ten Kelowna based artists presenting an array of new works. We are

hosting an open house on Aug. 31 from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. Be sure to stop by and meet the artists.

Coffee, tea and sweets will be served.

If you are unable to at-

tend the opening, we will be open on Sept. 1 and Sept. 2 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. so be sure to bring any last minute summer visitors you may have on the long weekend.

Woman rescued from Pincushion Mountain hike gone awry JOANNE LAYH

said Central Okanagan Search and Rescue received a call for assistance at 1:30 p.m. and responded with their members along with the mutual aid of Peachland Fire and Rescue.

Although their subject was near the summit

A walk up the hill ended with an ambulance ride for an elderly woman hiking Pincushion Mountain Friday afternoon.

COSAR search manager Kevin Birnie

of the mountain, rescue members managed to reach her by 2:20 p.m. and had her down to meet an ambulance around 3:30 p.m.

The woman and a hiking companion had reached the top and were on the way down

when she rolled her ankle. As a result, the woman was unable to walk or bear weight on her ankle, so they called for help.

“Fortunately they had good cell service up there so they were able to call for help,” Birnie

said.

Crews brought the woman down on a stretcher equipped with a stretcher wheel that attaches to the stretcher to provide mobility and reduce the risk of back strain to the rescuers.

“Peachland Fire and

Rescue were really good. We had a good contingent of their members out to help us with mutual aid so it was great,” Birnie said.

Birnie says COSAR are called to Pincushion Mountain multiple times a year.

Parents urged to get kids involved in the centennial fall fair CHARMAINE NOFIELD PEACHLAND FALL FAIR

The fall fair centennial year is here and the junior section is very excited. Over the past few years our group has increased so much. We are getting some really talented youth entering in all our categories.

This is the time of year when youth should be most active. School is winding down and the kids are bringing home projects from the whole year.

Parents, students and youngsters, take a box, set aside all of your works and then look at what you can enter.

Remember the gardening in our section, baking in the baking section, something in the vegetable section, and youth photography. There are also en-

tries that could be made in plant and flowers.

Peachland is so very fortunate in its volunteers that were able to keep this honourable tradition going for 100 years.

Thanks go our to many long term people who have done this for so very many years.

Last year Wayne Power wanted to present a special award to the most creative item.

In spite of working so very hard for days to get the fair decorations up and his section ready, he was prepared to award a beautiful art supply kit to one youth.

Unfortunately for Wayne, he injured his foot, and off he went for stitches, coming back immediately, though limping.

We have very high expectations from the youth this year. Remember, there are cash awards for

first, second and third, and with so many categories to enter, I am sure there must be at least five different entries that each child will find easy to do.

My job, if you can call it that is to meet, greet, and register these youth, and it is with anticipation and pleasure that I get to do this. To communicate with each one, watch their expectations and their excitement on Saturday afternoon as they race to the table to see if they have won is so much fun.

They bring their parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends over to see the winning ribbons.

Please parents and guardians, encourage the youth to enter and make this celebration the best ever.

There are so many more things to do this year that I am sure you will all enjoy our centennial year.

Peachland to host Rotary exchange student from Spain CHRIS BOYLE

PEACHLAND ROTARY CLUB August, wow! Where did the summer go? It’ll be September before we know it! And then, Merlot, Meritage and Murder!

But, before I go on about that, again, some snippets from August.

One of Rotary International’s signature programmes is the International Youth Exchange Programme where clubs cooperate internationally, and locally, exchanging young adults for a year of total immersion in their different cultures.

Last Thursday, a packed Gasthaus Rotary meeting enjoyed a wonderful presentation from our outbound international exchange student, Sofia, who will be spending the next academic year (and a bit) in Brittany.

What an experience!

Hosted by at least three Rotarian families in France, she will spend a year “being French” immersed in the language and customs of a European country whose history is so intertwined with our own.

If we send one away, we bring one in.

Our inbound student arrived here on Aug. 20, all the way from Spain.

A welcoming committee greeted her at the airport and brought her safely to her first “foster” home, right here in Peachland.

Amparo will be attending Mount Boucherie Secondary School, learn-

ing about the Canadian school system, making a lot of lifetime friends both at school and, hopefully, on the volleyball team.

Inevitably, she will learn also about the Canadian way of life, whilst living with three different Canadian host families in the area. Bienvenida!

If you would like to find out more about your child or grandchild experiencing the adventure of their lifetime come out to our information night on Sept. 24 at 7 p.m. at Mount Boucherie Secondary School.

Peachland Rotary raises money each year, to enable it to provide programmes like this to students and young people in the general area. We send students off on our adventures programmes in the fall and spring each year: health care, citizenship and tourism.

In the past we have provided equipment for the local elementary school and summer learning programmes; we provide scholar-ships and we send youth to our RYLA in the fall.

We provide, also, free peace concerts in Heritage Park every summer – and a host of other projects and programmes both here at home and abroad.

But we are not all work: we play a lot too! And what better way to involve this so generous community than in a dinner theatre production? Back by demand are our very

popular and fun-filled evenings (two this year!) of murder mystery. Merlot, Meritage and Murder will take place on Sept.

27 and 28. Why not get a ticket for both evenings and solve both murders?

The perpetrators are different! The Peachland chapter of the Kelowna General Hospital Ladies Auxiliary will provide their usual incredible food and all of this for only $50 per person for each evening of hilarity and sleuthing! We look forward to seeing you there – and if you would like to be a little more involved, we are holding auditions this year! Email info@ peachlandrotary.com and let us know.

What else do we do?

We have the annual seniors bus ride coming up: a mystery tour for a day, completely free to participants; the Sip’n Savour Wine Tasting evening; the elegant Evening at Fitz and don’t forget the delicious Bavarian meatloaf, smokies and bratwurst we serve at the Peace Concerts in the Park! To die for! Well, maybe not quite, but they are yummie.

There is so much more, but not enough space.

If you’d like to find out more, visit peachlandrotary.com or, better yet, join us at the Gasthaus at 11:45 a.m. on Thursdays; we are pretty friendly!

And we have really good speakers.

Meditation offers physical, spiritual, mental and emotional benefits RAIN GABRIEL MEDITATION FACILITATOR PEACHLAND WELLNESS CENTRE

food, exercise regularly, use environmental cleaners and cosmetics, and take supplements. While those are all wonderful choices; what about our mind and spirit? Stress is the sugar of the soul; it can ruin your health from the inside out. Most of us have anxiety and stress these days, whether it be from guilt, worry, fear, work, no work, deadlines, family and so on.

How we deal with what comes at us each day creates our mood and attitude.

Meditation is an approach in mind training; similar in the way fitness is an approach to training the body.

Meditation has been around for several thousands of years and is used to create inner peace. Today through science we know meditation can and does create much greater than this in the body, mind and spirit.

Imagine adding more peace and joy in your life?

Meditation teaches you tools on how to let go of the everyday stresses you may experience while creating clarity and focus so you can enjoy being beautiful you.

We can eat healthy

There are various techniques to meditation: concentration, mindfulness, walking, tai chi, global and more.

Through focus on breath, to observing your thoughts and patterns without judgment, like watching clouds floating by, letting go of what doesn’t serve you.

With all the variety there is no right or wrong way to practice.

Some ways meditation can benefit you: Physical: • Relieve pain; • Better sleep; • Increased energy; and • Lower blood pressure.

Spiritual: • Awaken/deepen intu-

ition; • higher consciousness; • Compassion; and • Life purpose.

Mental: • Calms the mind; • Improved concentration; • Creativity; and • Motivation.

Emotional: • Control or reduce anxiety; • Help PTSD; • Happiness; and • Stress less.

What do you have to lose? I invite you to give meditation a try. The Peachland Wellness Centre (PWC) offers Meditation every second and fourth Monday at 11:30 a.m. starting Oct.

28.

Don’t forget the many other programs and services that PWC offers, some of which resume in early September. To find out more about PWC’s meditation program or information about any of

the other programs and services offered come down to the Fall Kickoff Open House on Sept.

11 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.

And for fun and to support PWC programs and services attend the End of Summer Gala on Sept. 21.

WIN A PAIR OF TICKETS each week to this year’s premiere Peachland event.

Cash bar at 50+ Activity Centre to be opened more regularly HEIDI SLYNGBOM

50 + ACTIVITY CENTRE

EDGEWATER PINES MOBILE Home Park residents were invited to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Woodstock at a fun community event on Saturday, August 17.

PHOTOS LORIE ROHLOFF

M&D FUSION PROVIDED entertainment at the Edgewater Pines Mobile Home Park party.

The fall season is just weeks away, and with it comes some great new and exciting things at the 50+ Activity Centre.

When you pop into the office, you will soon see a fresh new facelift. The directors will be busy this weekend cleaning, moving furniture and painting the walls in an effort to revitalize the office. Our goal is to have the office reflect our vision for a bright and exciting future ahead for the 50+ Activity Centre. The office hadn’t been updated for far too many years, and we felt the update was overdue.

We have a number of fun and entertaining potlucks on the horizon including fun activities, some great music to dance to, a Halloween party and a Christmas party. Also, due to popular demand, we will be opening up the cash bar on a more regular basis. Please note that our September potluck will be held on Sept. 20 and we will be welcoming Just Friends to provide some great music to both entertain us and dance to. Be sure to read our monthly articles for more details on the upcoming potlucks and events.

The bingo loonie pot is currently at

$695. Bingo is held every Thursday at 6:45 p.m. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. so you can get your lucky seat, a hot dog, snacks and a beverage.

Please join us on Sept. 1 from 8 a.m.

– 11 a.m. as we will be hosting our annual Labour Day pancake breakfast.

Everyone is welcome to attend, so bring your family and friends.

We will be serving delicious pancakes with whipped cream, a special fruit compote and sausages along with juice, coffee or tea.

The cost is $5 for adults, $3 for children aged 6-12 and free for kids five and under.

Starting Sept. 3, the office hours will resume to 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, and most of the centre’s activities will be in full swing.

We have far too numerous great activities to list, so check the calendar at peachland50plusactivitycentre.ca for up to date information.

Lastly, we are looking for a new home for “Tank.” “Tank” is our strong and sturdy office desk. He is in good condition, lockable and comes with secret drawers. He has served us well, but with the changing times, we need to say goodbye. He is free, or available by donation, to a good home or office.

Contact the office if interested.
