WAIT IS OVER
The end of May 2026 is the projected completion date of the upcoming changes
By Keith Fielding
For those of us who have been eagerly awaiting the installation of a traffic light at Trepanier, the lineup of construction equipment on Highway 97 is a welcome sight.
However, this project is much more than just a traffic light. It involves changes to all the intersections between Trepanier
and the northern end of Buchanan and will require several months of work to complete.
That’s why in this edition of Peachland Post we are reminding readers about the scope of work, its impact on drivers, and the time frame for completion.
Let’s begin on the Trepanier side of the highway at its intersection with Huston. Currently you can turn left or right from this exit, and you can even cross the road to Buchanan and Robinson if you have the patience and nerves of steel.
Highway 97 improvements WELL AND TRULY UNDERWAY
No longer will that be the case. In future only a right turn will be permitted from this exit. That restriction will be regulated by a concrete barrier in the centre of the highway making it impossible

CARING QUILTS
Pincushion
Quilt Guild celebrates 20 years in Peachland
By Maurita grahaM
Each Wednesday morning,
a group of up to 40 women from the Pincushion Quilt Guild arrives at the Peachland Community Center carrying sewing machines, fabric, and other sewing essentials, to spend a day filled with laughter, sharing, and sewing. This year commemorates 20 years as a guild in Peachland.
Over the past 20 years, the group has created hundreds of quilts and other items for family, friends, and community organizations.
Donations of “Caring Quilts,” Christmas stockings, pillow cases, runners, shrouds, bags, and other goodies are made and distributed to the Women’s Shelter, Kelowna Hospice, Freedoms Door, NICU, Children’s Hospital, Peachland
Still going strong after 20 years, the Pincushion Quilt Guild continues to create all things quilted while building memories and friendships.
Foodbank, Sleep in Heavenly Peace, the Salvation Army, and to local community members who may need a quilt.
Over the past year, the guild has made and donated 36 pillow cases, 189 quilts, 3 bags, 51 Christmas stockings, and 2 runners for a total of 281 items.
Last year, 19 members attended the 50th Anniversary of the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas where they were inspired by quilters from around the world and made more than 250 entries to the Poppy Quilt Challenge.
Inspired by that display, Pincushion Guild has decided to fol-
low suit with their own Poppy Quilt Challenge.
The challenge is to use handdyed fabrics in four shades of red and orange to deep red, two shades of green, and one each of gray and charcoal. These quilts will be on display at OUR Space from November 1 to November 25.
The next quilt show will be held in the spring of 2027, where visitors will see a wide variety of new quilts and other items.
There will also be raffles and door prizes. Meanwhile, we will continue to make Caring Quilts and other donation items.••
Wine, art, and community converge at the Peachland Wine Shoppe

Join with them on November 6 and November 20 in the Shoppe’s refreshed gallery space in Peachland Village Mall, 60-5500 Clements Crescent. .
Each evening kicks off with delicious food crafted by Rodney, two signature mocktails created from the sophisticated
line of non-alcoholic wines that are central to each occasion, and the presentation to you of your own canvas and brushes.
You can sip, learn, and create while the sommelier explains the selections on offer and local artist Terry Moore helps you turn your inspiration into art.
There is a charge of $55 to cover the cost of food, wine, and art supplies, collected at the event. Call (250) 767-0067 for more information about ways to enjoy all or part of these sessions.
Immunization encouraged
As the 2025-26 immunization campaign gets underway, people in B.C. are being encouraged to protect themselves, their loved ones and their communities from influenza, COVID-19 and other viral respiratory illnesses.
“Immunization remains the best protection against severe disease, complications and hospitalization. People should also take other measures, including staying home if they are sick, covering coughs and sneezes, and cleaning their hands frequently,” said Dr. Martin Lavoie, deputy provincial health officer.
Vaccines are available through health authority clinics, over 1,200 participating pharmacies and some primary-care providers’ offices.

SCULPTURE LOANED
Lakeside location selected for placement of the “Four Directions Bear Family” sculpture
By Keith Fielding
Following the offer by Indigenous sculptor Steward Steinhauer to loan his “Four Directions Bear Family” sculpture to the District for two years, staff were tasked with meeting with the artist to review the offer and determine options for sculpture placement.
At its meeting on October 21, council adopted the staff recommendation to accept the loan offer and locate the sculpture on a grassy lakeside area near 2nd St.
The sculpture is made of granite, is approximately 12 ft x 6 ft x 5 ft in size, and weighs approximately 16,000 pounds, meaning it will require a crane to lift the sculpture into place.
The sculpture shows the

Trepanier Creek played an important role in Peachland’s early
days
Trepanier Creek has an interesting history. It was the site for a hydro-electric dam built in 1909 of logs, rebuilt of concrete in the 1930s. Remains are still visible today.
It was also the site of a gold rush but the gold turned out to be salted by an ambitious horse packer/guide.
The creek originates from two lakes and a huge pond. The lakes are Lacoma and Silver. Lacoma feeds the North fork of the creek and the pond the other. Silver Lake drains down a steep hillside into the creek.
sharing and determination. It also points out that the granite the bears are carved from represent another “four directions” with each granite being different in colour and origin, but united in spirit—the spirit of mother earth who gave birth to them.

At a time when Canada is all about “elbows up,” banding together to “buy Canadian,” and discussing removal of trade barriers between provinces, to increase trade options there’s one thing that should be a priority topic of conversation, but is not, and that is the Canadian flag.
Now, more than ever, we need the Canadian Flag as a symbol of national unity.
Although there are no “flag police” in Canada, the flag should always be presented at its best.
There are definite flag flying rules when it comes to etiquette and these are detailed in a Federal Government website at www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/services/flag-canada-etiquette/flying-rules.html
It is important to replace your flag when it’s tattered, torn or faded.
Based on the fabric, old flags can be disposed of through a dignified burning ceremony or cut up so they are disposed of properly and not just thrown in the garbage.
In between taking down the Halloween decorations and putting up the Christmas lights, let’s add checking the condition of the Canadian flag at your location.
If it’s in need of replacement, consider doing that plus adding a new flag to someone’s holiday gift as a reminder that our Canadian Flag deserves our foremost attention and our deepest respect.

Speak the truth or bite your tongue: both can be painful MUSINGS
If, like me, you find today’s cartoon to be particularly apt, you might also find that any amusement it generates is quickly eclipsed by the sombre truth of its message.
Yes, the cartoon reminds us, we do indeed live next door to a petulant child with enormous power to do us harm whenever its demands are not satisfied. The truth of that was seen earlier this week when Trump imposed an additional 10% tariff on top of the 20-25% already levied--all because Ontario Premier Doug Ford failed to remove his “offensive” tariff-critical ads fast enough.
At a time when Canada is walking a tightrope attempting to minimize the impact of
TIMING IS CRUCIAL
Trump’s trade war, and knowing that it would infuriate Trump, it was not helpful for Ford to place ads showing Ronald Reagan railing against tariffs.
Poking Trump in the eye is not advisable at any time, and especially so when some delicate dancing appears to be leading to a less punitive outcome than might otherwise have been the case. Staying silent in the face of abuse is not advisable either, but timing is important.
Doubtless that was a message communicated to Ford by Prime Minister Mike Carney--likely at a thunderous decibel level.
The words spoken by Ronald Reagan against tariffs were not taken out of context as Trump claims, but are, as
POLICY MATTERS
Keith Fielding
verified by his own speeches, a true reflection of his beliefs. Whether or not Ford had an opportunity to make that point in his exchange with Carney we may never know. However, we do know that he agreed to pull the ads after Game Two of the World
Series--but not nearly fast enough for Trump’s liking.
In a recent Castanet poll, 74% of respondents indicated that they believed the Ontario ads should not be pulled. This raises an important question for us all: what, in the face of abuse, are the limits to diplomacy and appeasement?
It seems clear this question will arise repeatedly during Trump’s presidency and it is one that needs to be addressed with a unified, one Canada, voice.

MISUNDERSTOOD MAMMALS
BEEPS busts Hollywood-fueled bat myths
Have you ever heard negative commentary about a person, only to discover upon meeting them yourself, they are actually perfectly wonderful?
This sums up my experience with two fellow residents. Allow me to introduce the Little Brown Bat - also known as Little Brown Myotis (Myotis translates to “mouse eared”) and Yuma Myotis. I would love to share what I have learned, since meeting these magical flying mammals.
As a recovering city slicker, I had never had the pleasure of being introduced to a bat. So imagine my surprise, when years ago I noticed a tiny, brown, velvety creature crouched in a ball against a parking lot wall. It took a few minutes of distant, cautious study before the thought, “Oh my goodness! It’s a bat!” popped into my head. Having only ever been
misinformed about bats, I was immediately nervous. It’s for this reason that I was excited to know more about these misunderstood, tiny animals.
I had the pleasure of learning a great deal from two members of Peachland’s BEEPS (Bat Education & Ecological Protection Society).
Emma Gaudreau has been the volunteer president of BEEPS since 2023 and holds a Master’s Degree in Biology. Darlene Hartford is a founder of BEEPS and the Program & Outreach Director.
BEEPS was born out of the discovery in 2011, of a large maternity colony of Little Brown Bats and Yuma Myotis amicably sharing the attic of Peachland’s Historical School. Because bats are endangered and protected, their roost could not be disturbed. It was also wisely recognized as a rare and valuable opportunity for education. Given this, the idea of BEEPS was born in 2011 and founded in 2015.
Thanks to Emma, Darlene and BEEPS, these Hollywood fueled myths have now been busted:
• Bats are pests. Not so! The truth is, our hard working little bats eat our insects that actually are pests every May to October. Remarkably, each little bat eats up to 1000 mosquitoes an hour - providing us with a
Peachland Places of Faith
virtually mosquito free town.
• All bats have rabies. (According to The BC Community Bat Program, less than 1% of bats have rabies.) However, it is wisely recommended to never touch a bat.
• Bats are blind. Actually, bats have excellent vision! They hunt using sight, smell and echolocation (emitting sound waves and listen-
There
ing for it to bounce off insects).
I’m told that despite a potential life span of 30 years, BC bats only live between 2-6 due to predators, White Nose Syndrome (a deadly fungus) and a loss of habitat. Because bats also roost in tree cavities, forest fires limit their options for homes.
You can help both our bats and BEEPS (who survive on volunteers, donations and sales) by purchasing a bat home at BEEPS, located in our SPACE on Beach Avenue.
Our little bats will surely appreciate it!

WAIT IS OVER
Improvement will positively impact safety and travel time
IMPROVEMENTS FROM PAGE 1
to reach the northbound lane. Across the road at the northern end of Buchanan, where vehicles can currently turn left or right, a centre barrier will prevent any left turns to the south.
What about entrance to these two intersections? Traffic heading south will still be able to turn right onto Huston, and thanks to a left turn lane configured as part of the centre island, turn left into the northern end of Buchanan. Coming from the opposite direction, traffic heading north will no longer be able to cross into Huston, but can turn right into the northern end of Buchanan.
At the south end of Buchanan, a centre of highway concrete barrier will prevent a southbound left turn from this intersection. However, a “right in, right out” system will allow north bound traffic to enter Buchanan with a right turn in, and to exit from Buchanan with a right turn.
So, how does anyone living on Buchanan (and for that matter Robinson Place where it joins the northern end of Buchanan) get to turn to the south given that a left turn will be impossible from either end of Buchanan?
The answer is that drivers will have to turn onto Beach Avenue where it intersects Buchanan and drive along Beach Avenue to 13th Street.
With traffic volumes being what they are on Hwy 97 this route is likely already the preferred option for many southbound drivers.
In any event, it is a change that according to District of Peachland engineering staff is not expected to trigger a need for any special upgrades to the affected area of Beach Avenue.
Back now to the Trepanier traffic light. This long awaited
improvement will be an important safety measure and a valued time saver. It will also obviate the temptation for a driver who wants to head north to turn right instead and do a U-turn at the Clements traffic light.
However, the new traffic light will have a downside for some. After installation, Desert Pines will become a one-way route allowing right turn exits to the highway but no left turn entry from Trepanier at that junction.
Despite the District having registered concerns about this change, the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) considers it necessary to prevent future congestion at this point after the light is installed.
The District has shared with us the anticipated time frame for project completion. Depending
upon the length of any required winter shut down, completion is expected by the end of May 2026. Some single lane traffic con-

COOL CONNECTIONS
Frozen Peaches plunge; chilling out with friends
Carol Jenkins stood on the shore in her housecoat.
Fluffy and cozy. She had a wary smile on her face but looked determined. Around her were six other women also wearing colourful housecoats, smiling and chatting animatedly. They were a friendly bunch, and happily told me what they were up to, and why, with a lot of invitations to join them next week.
These are the Frozen Peaches. They meet at 9 am every Thursday at the edge of the lake, close to Trepanier Creek, to spend six minutes in the water. It’s cold water plunging.
Mary Lynn Pallett first told me about the group, and she has the enthusiasm of an evangelist. “Endorphins, epinephrine, norepinephrine, it reduces inflammation

When it gets too warm in the spring, they stop until it gets cold again. So, October to March or April. The group has been plunging for a couple of years. The coldest it’s been is -3. They

go rain or shine or snow. They brag that once the waves were hitting them fiercely and there were icicles on the dock. Yikes!
ROAD NAME of the week
Isaac and Mary Cousins arrived in Peachland from Mowbray, Manitoba with their ten children in 1913. There would be fourteen eventually, nine boys and five girls. They purchased a thirty-acre property up on the Trepanier Bench.
The Cousins family is famous in Peachland for the remarkable fact that the nine brothers formed a complete baseball team in the 1930’s that was active and successful in Okanagan competitive leagues. They were known as “the Brothers who were also Cousins.”
In 1938 they were successful in winning the Penticton Baseball Tournament. One of the scores was: Cousins 4, Penticton 2. In recognition of this amazing team of brothers, the baseball park on Beach Avenue between 6th and 8th Streets was named Cousins Park in their honour. This re-naming occurred in 1981 at a ceremony attended by Premier Bill Bennett and the surviving members of the 1930’s team. Some of the brothers became active in the logging industry; some of the family stayed in Peachland, others left, but there is still a Cousins presence in Peachland over a century later. Verne Cousins, one of the brothers, served as a councillor in 1960 and 1961.

Emma Webber is the cheerleader, but each of them looked liked a worthy ambassador. “You just march in, just go, holding hands. It’s just water, and only six minutes.”
And so that was it. They dropped their housecoats, shed their pyjama bottoms, and there they were in their bathing suits and water shoes. Some wore scuba sox. They advanced in a tidy row into the water up to chest level. Some kept their hands up by their shoulders. I heard them chatting out there, and they certainly looked happy, with big smiles on their faces. Occasionally I could hear, “We can do hard things!”
And then the timer still on the dock went off, and they rejoined hands, and proceeded out of the water. Towelled off, rerobed, they were energized. And that’s what they were saying.
“It shakes off my afternoon fog. Helps me sleep…I have so much energy….when I get home I vacuum the whole house.”
And there was Mary Lynn, reminding people to not shower when they get home. “Just let your body warm up on its own. Turn on music and dance. Use all this energy that you’ve gathered up.”
“You guys are rockstars. Yeah, it feels so so good for the whole day. What a way to start the day, with friends, doing something for about 20 minutes. We can do hard things!”
I look at Carol Jenkins. She has a glow of accomplishment on her face. “I did a hard thing,” she says, heroically.
The Mayo Clinic website lists all sorts of health benefits of cold water plunging, along with potential risks. But what a “cool” way to get intimate with Lake Okanagan. What a way to connect with the environment.
