By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview. com Christy Clark made a brief stop in Keremeos on May 1 as the provincial Liberal campaign swept through the Lower Similkameen and South Okanagan. Clark’s entourage stopped at Sanderson Farms Fruit Stand, where the premier was greeted by Boundary Similkameen Liberal candidate Linda Larson. She purchased apples, provided photo opportunities to media and met with members of the Lidhar family and a number of party faithful in a brief half hour stop. Clark also spoke to the Review about some Similkameen concerns. See page 3 for full details.

Kaleden museum holding grand opening on May 11 Concept began during community centennial celebrations in 2009

By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Kaleden Museum is holding

a grand opening on Saturday, May 11 from 2 to 4 p.m. The museum has been three years in the making, its’ beginnings dating back to the Kaleden Centennial in 2009. At that time, an outdoor display of local photos and artifacts generated a lot of interest amongst Kaleden

residents. Additionally, $10,000 was raised during the centennial celebrations to put towards the establishment of the museum. The Kaleden Museum Society, a registered charity, was formed with Susan Kelly serving as Chairperson. Since 2009, the group has put

together some interesting displays of old photographs, artifacts and fruit labels dating back to the days when the fruit growing and packing industry dominated life in Kaleden. The museum is housed in the meeting room of the Kaleden Community Hall. Plans

are for museum operations on a casual basis for the time being. A sandwich board will be placed in front of the community hall to indicate when the museum will be open to the public. Kaleden and area residents are invited to come and have a look at the past this Saturday.
