Message from the Director: We continue to adapt programs and services based on up-to-date protocols as presented by the provincial governing bodies.

As we transition into fall, we are optimistic that services and programs can return to previous capacities. However, as we are learning, even with the best intentions, this pandemic continues to throw in curve balls. What is most exciting is the potential return of community events. Events thrive in Peachland and attract residents and guests alike. As Canada Day was cancelled, a Peachland Family Festival has been initiated. In partnership with the Peachland Chamber of Commerce and other service groups, this event will feature games, activities and music in the park (see p. 2 for details). As well, we are looking forward to Glow Run, Jack-O-Lantern Walk on the Haunted Dock, Christmas Light-Up, Breakfast with Santa and other exciting community events. We hope that restrictions allow us to continue these amazing community traditions.
