The top prize at the Spirit of Peachland Civic Awards ceremony was this year awarded to not one, but two individuals. At the awards ceremony on Friday, Donna and Eldon Kerbes were giv-en the honour of being pronounced Peachland’s Citizens of the Year.

We were quite sur-prised that we were even nominated, let alone in that particular catego-ry,” Eldon Kerbes told the View. “It was quite a shock to be nominated for that.”

The Kerbes’ generous-ly volunteer their time to a number of commu-nity groups. Eldon is well known for his extensive

involvement with the Peachland Lions Club. His wife Donna volun-teers regularly with the Peachland Hospital Aux-iliary and is also involved with the Peachland Quil-ters Guild and Pincush-ion Quilters Guild.

Both Donna and El-don are active in the Peachland Fall Fair and Peachland Players. Need-less to say, the couple are dedicated to offering their time and effort to the community. In fact, the Kerbes’ missed much of the awards ceremony because both were busy volunteering in the kitch-en during the event.

While the Kerbes’ were busy in the kitchen, the Peachland Variety Sing-ers opened the evening

by leading the audience in singing the national anthem. Throughout the evening, the Danny Sameshima Trio had the pleasure of performing to a full house, as the cer-emony was particularly well attended this year.

When the awards seg-ment of the evening be-gan, Constable Jeremy Ricker and the Peach-land Ambassador candi-dates were on hand to es-cort the winners of each category down the red carpet.

Helen McLaughlan, Sarah (Sadie) Todd and Stella Vaughan-Birch took home the Free-dom of the Municipality award. Darlene Hartford received the Mayor’s Award for her work with

Spirit of BC and the Councillor’s Award went to Chris Byrd.

Both the Centennial and Communities in Bloom Committees were presented the Meritori-ous Service award. Cen-tennial Committee mem-bers Chris Scowen, Don Wigfi eld, Lorraine Berg-man, Peter Schierbeck and Barb Dionne were honoured for their hard work in ensuring the cen-tennial year was a suc-cess, while Communities in Bloom Committee members Gord Thorne, Doreen Thorne, Wilma McKinnon, Phyllis Pap-ineau, Martha Jenkins, Doug Ross, Mary True-man, Darlene Hartford, Chris Scowen, Polly Palmer, Doug Allin, Vic

Loney and Linda Nicho-las were acknowledged for their contribution in making Peachland a Five Bloom community.

Councillor Moberg presented the Commu-nity Builders award to Lynne Herrin.

The Youth Achieve-ment award went to Por-tia Conner, one of this year’s Peachland Ambas-sador candidates. Con-nor was successful in raising over $9,000 for CIBC Run for the Cure.

The Water Conserva-tion Landscaping prize was awarded to Nahid Gordon and Liz and Dale Zimmerman for their use of drought tol-erant shrubs and other eco-friendly landscaping elements. The Christmas

Lighting Award went to Deborah and Samuel Derksen.

While not everyone left the ceremony with an award, a special seg-ment in the fi rst part of the program allowed for community group recog-nitions.

Among others, Peach-land Fire and Rescue Service acknowledged Dory Nash, Peachland’s Firefi ghter of the Year. The Peachland Lions Club recognized Lynne Herrin as Lion of the Year, Peachland Sports-men’s association mem-ber Martha Jenkins paid tribute to Sportsman of the Year Judy Vernando and Olive Fielding spoke about the contributions of the Wellness Centre.

With the new Pondero-sa Golf Course and club-house targeted to open in Summer 2011, work is fi nally beginning to move forward at the develop-ment site. Derek Chichak, president and chief oper-ating offi cer of Treegroup was in Peachland this week to move the devel-opment along.

Tendering for construc-tion of the golf course closed on April 15, Chichak told the View. He confi rmed that Treegroup is currently reviewing the tenders and expect to an-nounce a decision very soon. Mobilization to start work on the course is targeted to begin May 1.

Meanwhile, Teresen Gas has been scheduled to do some identifi cation of depths and location of the line below so it can be

properly surveyed before construction begins.

“Things are happening basically starting today or tomorrow and you’re going to see mobilization with some equipment,” he said, “We have an earth-works permit that allows us to work on the existing zoned property.”

The score card for the new Greg Norman de-signed Ponderosa Golf Course was unveiled on April 15.

While the fi rst nine holes of the new golf course will be roughly situated in the same area as the old golf course, it will all be new.

“It will be totally dif-ferent. If you overlaid the old course under this, you wouldn’t recognize anything,” Chichak ex-plained.

From there, they’ll move into the Crown land once they get the annexation

and zoning done, which should take place by June, if all goes well.

Chichak says that fol-lowing that they will be submitting to the district engineering drawings for phase 1 of the infrastruc-ture, which will include the road work, water and sewer.

“The hope is that we’ll be able to tender that work for early June and

that would be for com-mencing the work on that for late June or sooner,” he said, adding, “and again, that all depends on the kind of feedback we get from Urban Systems and the District on the engi-neering plans.”

Access to Highway 97 about halfway between Ponderosa and Princ-eton has been proposed to Ministry of Transpor-

tation and Infrastruc-ture (MOTI). Treegroup and the district are now awaiting a response. It’s possible that within that response, MOTI may in-clude a recommendation about whether or not lights should be installed at the intersection.

Chichak indicated that the start of home con-struction for the fi rst multi-family residential

units might begin as early as this fall and could be completed by the end of next year. Residential units in the Founder’s Lane area would be likely be the fi rst to go up, fol-lowed by units in the Al-pine area.

Chichak says it depends upon absorption.

“We’ll start pre-market-ing it and see what kind of interest there is,” he said.

Mayor Fielding, Coun-cillor Condon, West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater, Derek Chichak and Norm Porter of Treegroup, and two rep-resentatives from the Ministry of Transporta-tion and Infrastructure (MOTI) were just a few of the people in attendance at last Wednesday’s High-way 97 public meeting.

Co-sponsored by the District of Peachland, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Highway 97 Task Force, the public meet-ing was arranged to raise awareness about issues surrounding Highway 97

through Peachland. Essentially there are

two options for Highway 97 in Peachland – create a bypass or 4-lane the existing highway. The perceived impacts of each of these options were rep-resented from a variety of angles over the course of the presentation.

Michael Stringam, a se-nior transportation engi-neer for Urban Systems, was the fi rst to present to the public. With many years of transportation planning experience, Stringam offered a broad overview of the various concerns that are faced when highway planning. He spoke about the ways

in which planners try to balance mobility and ac-cess, illustrating creative solutions such as multi-use boulevards. Strin-gam’s presentation didn’t address where one might fi nd room for a multi-use boulevard through Peachland. Instead, his presentation was geared to conveying that there are a multitude of solu-tions to be considered.

Peachland Chamber of Commerce president Rob Campbell refl ected the concerns of the business community and how they might be affected by a bypass - and it’s construc-tion.

Later, panel presenter

Brenton Froehlich of the Peachland Sportsman’s Association raised con-cerns relating to the en-vironment. His presenta-tion outlined the need for research involving hydrology, riparian protection, air quality, rock stability, forestry issues, fl ora and fauna, wildlife survival and habitat, and biodiver-sity.

At the end of the presentation, MOTI Okanagan Shuswap dis-trict manager Murray Tekano took questions from the panel and the

public. Tekano didn’t give away what direction the Ministry is leaning to-wards, but he did reveal that they would not be re-

searching the options for another fi ve or ten years.

If that is truly the case, then there should be plen-

ty of time for in-depth consultation with the public and the task force.

“We think we have a strong working relation-ship with the Highway97 Task Force and wewill continue to fosterthat positive workingrelationship into the fu-ture,” MOTI project di-rector Grant Lachmuthtold the View in an in-terview following thepresentation. The Task Force boasts

a membership of 500, about 10 per cent of the population of Peachland.

A water advisory now in effect for Peachland means that some may need to drink boiled wa-ter or a safe alternative such as bottled water un-til further notice. Further to that, for certain at-risk populations, health offi -cials are recommending that water intended for

washing fruits or veg-etables, making juice or ice, or brushing teeth be boiled for one minute.

Those are the recom-mendations that Interior Health has made for the for the following groups of people:

Children; The elderly;People with weakened

immune systems; and

Anyone seeking addi-tional protection.

Peachland’s water quality is presently listed as fair, but while the as-sociated health risks are minimal, it may be better to be safe than sorry.

It’s an issue that has been discussed for many years. But, in the last few months, the proposal to build an extension to the commun-ity centre and operate a curling club has become an emotional subject in our town. In the history of any community, there are certain dates that become defi ning moments. Elec-tions for mayor and council are often such dates. May 15 also qualifi es because this vote is not just about a building or about money; it’s about what kind of com-munity we are, and what kind of community we will become.

Certainly there are many

enthusiastic curlers who will vote yes. However, there are some people who will vote against spending money, no matter what the proposal is. But the deci-sion on May 15 will not be controlled by either of these groups. Many of the people who vote won’t be curl-ers and won’t be keen to spend money. The decision will depend on responsible people accepting the vision of a signifi cant commun-ity asset and accepting the proposal as good value for money.

When the alternate ap-proval process gathered over 500 signatures, some people were upset and

called this group “nega-tive nellies” who were op-posed to everything. That is not my opinion. Perhaps there were a few like that, but I have spoken to several people who signed and their question is, “why should I pay money for this?” It’s a legitimate question and one that deserves a good answer. It doesn’t matter if the alternate approval pro-cess was the work of a rela-tively small number. When people exercise their demo-cratic rights, they deserve our respect. Too often, pol-iticians promise to listen and, after the election, ig-nore public opinion. How-ever, I don’t believe that is

the case in our town. I have attended many Peachland council meetings and I am very impressed with the mayor and council that we are fortunate to have. After much analysis and debate, they have already endorsed this proposal.

Peachland is a relatively small community but has a history of being lucky about getting grant money from the provincial and federal governments. In reality it hasn’t been about luck but about a lot of hard work behind the scenes. One person involved in this hard work is new to Peachland and that’s our MLA, Bill Barisoff. Due to boundary changes, Bari-soff has represented Peach-land since the last election. When grant money became available through the Build-ing Canada fund, Barisoff fought hard to get money for Peachland. The result is two very large grants for a community of our size. Peachland council put for-ward proposals for an en-hanced waterfront pathway and for a new building for a curling club. Many other good ideas were either too expensive or ineligible for this grant process. It would be unusual for a commun-

ity to reject such grants. The debate about which

projects should be sup-ported is history; the de-cisions have been made. However the alternate ap-proval process has had a signifi cant impact on the curling club proposal. The new building adjacent to the existing community centre, if it is built, will no longer be controlled by the curling club. The revised proposal now put forward gives total control to Peach-land staff. So the descrip-tion “multi-use facility” is appropriate. If the curling club succeeds, that’s great for the community. If it fails due to lack of support, the new building might be-come our new larger coun-cil chambers. Use of the building in the summer for meetings and receptions was always part of the ori-ginal proposal anyway. If we reject the chance to get a four million dollar building for a one-third cost, we may have to pay the full amount in a few years. I didn’t sup-port the decision to approve doubling the size of Peach-land, but that decision has been made. As our town grows, the need for muni-cipal building space will grow as well. In the sum-mer, this new building will become a key component of providing community services that have nothing to do with curling.

When it comes to defi n-ing the cost, this has been a problem. The offi cial number is $34 per house-hold per year. But there has been some confusion about the numbers in the past. Why? Because it de-pends on whether you are an optimist or a pessimist. Until the building is com-plete, we don’t know how many sponsors will come forward, how many new curlers there will be or how many weddings will be ar-ranged. Sponsorship money will come. For example, it cost the credit union a lot of

money to get their name on Prospera Place in Kelowna. Some people considered building the existing Peach-land Community Centre to be a waste of money. For-tunately it was built and it is hard to imagine our town without that facility today. Thank goodness, the mayor and council endorsed those plans.

Many people using this facility (whether winter curlers or summer brides) will come from West Ke-lowna as well as Peach-land; this helps the build-ing pay for itself. For those who don’t curl but like to use the pool or ice arena in West Kelowna, voting yes on May 15 will be a wise decision. We don’t (at the moment) pay more than residents of West Kelowna to use their facilities (sub-sidised by their tax base), but this could change. With a new Westside curling club in Peachland, recipro-cal and equal access to fa-cilities makes more sense.

Voting yes is accepting the needs of a larger Peach-land. It’s about working together with West Ke-lowna. It’s about getting a building at one-third of the cost. It’s about much more than just curling. I am an advocate of smaller gov-ernment and lower taxes, but if I had to decide how to spend money, I’d vote for buildings before I would vote for more managers or consultants. Learn to curl or just get out and so-cialise. This proposal gives you those opportunities. Let’s give the people of Peachland more places to meet and play. Let’s sup-port other people’s dreams because next time they will support ours. That’s the kind of community I want to live in, a com-munity where people care about each other and make responsible plans for the future. In Peachland, the dream is alive; let’s get on board.

Signs of spring popping up

Removing signs won’t remove support

Is a no vote no to Peachland?

Curling club camoufl age

There are defi nitely lots of signs pop-ping up. Anyone notice those cute refer-endum community facility signs?

In the sales/marketing world there is a procedure to follow when trying to sell a product, which may be perceived as having fl aws or blemishes. It is vitally important to change the point of view on the product. It’s sort of like watching a slight of hand artist. If you are watch-ing the hands, you will never spot the switch. Some say it’s like putting the “em-PHA-sis” on a different “sil-i-bel.” The entire purpose is to sell the sizzle

and not the steak. In other words sell the perception of what you want, not the actual product.

Hence the signs say community facili-ty, with no mention of the words curling rink. Can they sell the single purpose built facility as a more inclusive multiuse facility with the emphasis away from the single use? They are sure as heck going to try. Is it clever? Will it work? Time will tell on May 15th. Remember, keep your eye on the “PEA” not the moves.

Jim Gardner

Signs are popping up asking us to vote for a multiplex in the upcoming referendum on May 15th. Is the multiplex not the curling club? Why would the Peachland Curling Club omit any references to a curling club on its own signs? Reminds me of the wolf in sheep’s clothing story.

Perhaps by excluding the phrase “curling club” from their signs, the Peachland Curl-ing Club thinks the voters might be tricked

into voting for a facility which will not be truly a multiplex.

The facility was designed specifi cally for curling. A multiplex it cannot be. Do not be fooled. You will be asked, as taxpayers, to vote for considerable funding to build a pri-marily single-use facility – the curling club.

Really, I would appreciate more honesty from the Peachland Curling Club.

Greg Nicholls, Peachland

To the Editor: As the owners of the Heritage Plaza building on

Beach Avenue, we wish to request that those individu-als “against” the proposed Curling Club cease and de-sist the removal of the signs that have been placed on our property promoting a “yes” vote for the Curling Club referendum. Signs in other areas have also been removed and it is upsetting to us that this kind of tactic is being used. If you are against this proposal, you also have the right to make up your own signs and request placement of them or place them yourself in neutral ar-eas. As long time residents of Peachland, business own-ers and managers, and both corporate and individual taxpayers, we do support the Peachland Curling Club’s efforts and have no problem saying so, both verbally and in writing. We believe that this proposal is a wor-thy one, and will be an asset to our ever-growing com-munity. We expect and deserve respect for our opinion, just as we respect your opinion, but we do not expect approved signage to be removed.

Sincerely,Lorraine Bergman, Carolyn Cartier and Laura Coris

Will the next referendum be on Peachland joining West Kelowna?If the curling rink/community facility referendum fails and the people of

Peachland as a group decide that they do not want or can’t afford to support a public facility, we have to decide where to go from there. Does Peachland have the critical mass and the will to remain a standalone community?

Most of Peachland shopping takes place in West Kelowna and that will be increasing as the new Superstore opens up. West Kelowna is the home of our Peachland High School with all the accompanying social and extra-cur-ricular activities for the youth. Our local policing is based in West Kelowna and the offi cers are part of the West Kelowna community. The Peachland Skating and Ice Hockey rink is in West Kelowna, as is the indoor swimming pool.

Peachland currently has town staff, council and public employees with the administrative overhead accounting for about 20 per cent of all Peachland District expenditures. This requires a much larger portion of our tax dollars than more populated communities. There can be no doubt that there would be tremendous effi ciencies and savings if Peachland formally joins West Kelowna and contribute to the West Kelowna infrastructure and staff in the same way we support the police, the high school and sewer system.

Maybe that is the way some people want it and the way it will inevitably play out. The unintended consequence of a vote against the curling rink is a vote against the confi dence of Peachland as community with a future.

Reverse the trend. Vote yes for the Curling Rink and yes to Peachland.

FRIDAY SATURDAYWEDNESDAY THURSDAYMONDAY TUESDAYSUNDAY

FRIDAY SATURDAYWEDNESDAY THURSDAYMONDAY TUESDAYSUNDAY

This week (April 18th to April 24th 2010) commu-nities throughout British Columbia are celebrat-ing Arts and Culture. Now in its 11th year, this annual event provides an opportunity for Arts Councils and communi-ties to spotlight the way in which artistic and cul-tural pursuits refl ect and contribute to the richness of community life in Brit-ish Columbia.

On Sunday afternoon, Phyllis Papineau, chair of the Peachland Arts Coun-cil, led a ‘Banner Walk’ to profi le and celebrate the newly installed banners that now hang proudly from utility poles and street lamps along Beach Avenue. Each of these beautiful banners is the work of a member of ‘Art Group.’ Each banner tells a story to illustrate some facet of life in Peachland or the Okanagan, and many of the artists were on hand to explain the ideas behind their cre-ations. The walk ended at the Little Schoolhouse, where the artwork of lo-cal school children, fea-turing designs using recy-cled machine parts, was on display.

Other events planned to take place during Arts and Culture week include production of the play “Cider with Rosie” be-ing staged by Peachland Players at 4th Street Place from Thursday, April 22nd until Sunday April 25th; an art and musical

production at The Little Schoolhouse on Saturday afternoon, April 24th; and, on April 21st (which was also Earth Day) pu-pils at the elementary school were to listen to a talk from Ray Van In-gen of Gorman’s Mill re-garding the importance of reforestation, prior to then being encouraged to demonstrate their liter-ary or artistic profi ciency through a related follow-up assignment.

For whatever reason, the vein of artistic talent is exceptionally rich in Peachland. In the visual arts we have among us many gifted artists who work in water colours, oils, or acrylics, or draw in chalk or charcoal. We also have printmakers, potters, photographers, sculptors, quilt makers, and crafts workers. In the performing arts we have singers, musicians, danc-ers, actors and theatre performers. The literary arts are also well repre-sented by poets and writ-ers.

It is ironic that at a time when arts organiza-tions are experiencing an unprecedented level of funding cuts that there is an increasing aware-ness of the importance of arts and culture to the economic well being of communities of all sizes.

Indeed, cultural tourism (travel directed toward experiencing the arts, heritage and special char-acter of unique places) has become increasingly important in the tour-ism industry. This fact has not escaped the at-tention of our Peachland Economic Development Committee which is in discussion with the Arts Council about the possi-bility of an annual long weekend event designed to showcase the depth of artistic talent that exists within our community.

Whatever the place such an event might hold in the development and marketing of Peachland’s cultural identity, it is clear that much organi-zational work is involved in its staging. Whether or not this can be ‘pulled off’ remains to be seen. However, on the basis that it can be of benefi t to the artists whose work is profi led, important to the enjoyment of visitors, and of value to the busi-ness community, Council has lent its support to the idea and to an associated tourism grant applica-tion.

I am pleased to take this opportunity to thank the arts community for the important contribu-tion it makes to our qual-ity of life in Peachland.

While the much of the Westside was still asleep, volunteers from Westbank Walmart and the Peachland Sports-man’s Association (PSA) were busy planting trees in Trepanier Creek early Saturday morning.

Over the course of the morning, volunteers planted nearly 100 ma-ture trees and native bushes along the wa-terway in Peachland’s Trepanier Creek Linear Park. The planting was part of the Trepanier Creek Riparian Restora-tion project, which aims to improve the habitat

for Kokanee salmon and other creatures. The plants along the creek will provide shade for the Kokanee salmon and other species. Without that shade, the waters might be too warm for the salmon to spawn in come autumn.

PSA member Martha Jenkins said the tree planting was a great suc-cess. “It was excellent,” Jenkins told the View. “We had 10 Peachland Sportsman’s Association members there volun-teering. All the rest were from Walmart and there must have been more than 20. Mothers even came with their little

ones.” District council earlier

this year voted in favour of partnering with the PSA and Walmart in the project. Contributions from the PSA as well as a $9,100 grant from Walmart’s Evergreen program provided fund-ing for the materials.

Transport of the plant materials was donated by Duda Nursery of Okanagan Falls, while Team Construction of Kelowna donated the use of a bobcat and op-erator to help move the plants into position. The District of Peachland will tend to the plants during their fi rst year.

New plants for Trepanier Creek

Art and music showcase to feature Gypsy Butterfl y

By Joanne Layh

As a wrap-up to Arts and Culture Week, Carly Thomas, also known as Gypsy Butterfl y, will be performing songs from her latest album in an art and music showcase, which will also feature an art display of works by Alex Thomas, Mary Ann Molcan and Jrie Molcan.

Thomas will be pro-moting her new album,

Whispers of my Heart. The album includes 8 new songs and 3 pop/dance remixes from pre-vious records, which Thomas says gives the al-bum, “a unique sonic and musical twist.” The album was produced by Thomas’ longtime collab-orator, Trance Blackman, who also performs on the album.

The showcase will take place on April 25th from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Lit-

tle Schoolhouse. Tasty treats will be provided by Wen-dy from Peach-land Fitness and Health Bar, where you can purchase a copy of Thomas’

CD. The CD is also avail-able on iTunes. For more information, visit www.theGypsyButterfl y.com.

By Bud Day

Since this week is be-ing celebrated as Na-tional Volunteer Week across Canada, perhaps we should consider the benefi ts of volunteer-ism.

Sometimes, we take for granted the com-munity where we live. Throughout the ages, people and societies have co-depended on each other for survival. The explosion of multi-national corporations with their impact on society to purchase the best appliances and electronics, to buy the best home, to take that all-inclusive cruise or stay at a resort, et al, has catapulted self-grat-ifi cation to new levels, and concomitantly, has eroded community spir-it. However, through volunteering, we can

bridge that ever-widen-ing gap, for volunteer-ing is about having an impact on the well be-ing of others. It draws from a diverse range of people from all walks of life. Both your recipi-ents of volunteering and your co-workers can be source of inspiration, and a proven way to develop your interper-sonal skills. Network-ing is an important by-product of volunteer-ing, as you will develop enduring personal and sometimes professional relationships.

Alan Luks’s book, The Healing Power of Doing Good: The Heath and Spiritual Benefi ts of Helping Others, was based on a survey of 3000 volunteers, which involved the study of how volunteers felt during and after volun-teering. He alluded to

their gratifi cations as a “helper’s high” which referred to “ . . . the rush of endorphins the body releases during and after performing an act of volunteerism. En-dorphins are the body’s natural painkillers, and released during acts of great pleasure. Once the endorphins are re-leased, they help the body experience a sus-tained feeling of calm that can increase overall emotional health.”

In 2004, director of the Centre of Aging and Health at John Hop-kins, Dr. Linda Fried, MD, conducted a two-year study of older vol-unteers between ages 60 and 86. She conclud-ed that, “compared to a control group of older individuals who did not volunteer, those who did volunteer had signif-icantly increased physi-

cal, cognitive and social activity.” She deter-mined that volunteering could actually retard the aging process.

When people lose a loved one, they often volunteer as part of the healing process, as they work through their grief. By assisting an organization in some event, it diverts your pain for the moment, and forces you to count your blessings - that you are alive, healthy and in control of your facul-ties.

Volunteering deters depression. Social iso-lation is a signal of de-pression, and by volun-teering, you maintain regular contact with others. It allows you to develop a solid support system, which enables you to cope when you are confronted with challenging situations.

Volunteering permits you to appreciate that you are needed and that you can make a differ-ence in someone’s life. As people will depend on you, you will gain a sense of purpose.

Volunteering also de-velops self-esteem. As you are assisting the community in general and others, in particu-lar, a sense of accom-plishment is the intrin-sic reward. You can bet-ter identify with the or-ganization that you are helping, and, in time, you will develop an es-prit de corps with the other volunteers in that organization.

Volunteering develops social skills for those who are shy and have a diffi cult time meeting new people. Since you are meeting regularly with a group of people with common inter-ests, volunteering offers

gradually the oppor-tunity to develop andpractice social skills.

Peachland has manyorganizations that servethe community such asLions and Rotary Clubs,Royal Canadian Legion#69, Sportsmen’s Club,Trepanier Lodge, Well-ness Centre, and others.In order to achieve theiraims and objectives,these non-profi t associa-tions need volunteers tofulfi ll them. Because ofPeachland’s small popu-lation base, often thesame people volunteerto assist three or fourassociations to set upand participate in theirevents, which can leadto burnout.

Speaking for one or-ganization, I have wit-nessed fi rst hand thatthe Peachland WellnessCentre (PWC) has beenblessed with a corp ofvolunteers who per-form a variety of tasksthroughout the year.Without these dedi-cated volunteers, thePWC could not deliverits programs to deserv-ing residents. Other or-ganizations would echothe same sentiment, forthey do value their vol-unteers. Indeed, volun-teers are the glue thatholds our communitytogether!

To all those volun-teers who dedicate theirtime to an organizationin Peachland, thankyou! You are very muchappreciated.
