Food waste program a waste of money, council says
District of Peachland councillors at the last regular council meeting voted against a request by representatives of the Regional District of Central Okanagan to formally join a proposed curbside food waste program.
Instead, councillors voted to not to support the program and put off any formal participation
for at least five years due to the “excessive costs”, the district said in a media release.
Volunteers needed to help with local watershed clean-up
If you can spare some time this weekend, the Okanagan Forest Task Force and the Peachland Watershed Protection Alliance could use your assistance.

Reviews
Niki has just completed a sale for my parents. Wow! They and I are sure glad we found her. Everything was handled and explained from start to finish, and starting with the listing photos, which were brilliant. We had the property listed previously with a different realtor, and the pictures were no where near the quality that Niki provided.
Niki took a vested interest in the sale, proactively marketing and answering any and all questions from prospective buyers. Her attention to detail is second to none, following up with any concerns and actually doing what she says she will do! Not only that, her genuine caring for people shines through. She patiently helped my parents with their sale, and consistently went the extra mile to make sure they understood everything that was happening, and dates and times, etc. Her dedication and caring was certainly appreciated during a stressful time. We were so lucky to find her.
Do not hesitate to call Niki!
Trepanier to get long-awaited upgrade
By John McDonalD Staff RepoRteR
It may have taken almost a decade but the provincial Ministry of Transportation has announced impending improvements to what the District of Peachland describes as “problem intersections” on Highway 97 through Peachland.
Foremost is the installation of a traffic light at the notorious three-way intersection of Trepanier Bench Road, Desert Pines Avenue and Highway 97, the ministry said in a media release.
Situated on a blind curve of the highway, the intersection has long been a source of frustration and accidents, primarily for local motorists trying to turn left onto Highway 97.
One resident who asked not to be identified said during peak traffic times in the summer, motorists will turn right onto Highway 97 then do a u-turn at the Clements Crescent traffic light, rather than endure a lengthy wait at the stop sign or risk a collision crossing a busy highway.
The resident said not everyone will benefit from the new controlled intersection as the ministry plans to convert Desert Pines Avenue to a right-turn only street with Trepanier designated as the main access point onto the highway. Left
turns onto Desert Pines Ave. from Trepanier will also be restricted, the ministry said.
“These improvements are designed to enhance safety, improve traffic flow and reduce the risk of collisions by better managing access to the highway,” the ministry release stated.
In addition, the intersections of both Buchanan Road South and North will be restricted to one-direction turns onto Highway 97.
The intersection improvements were first recommended in the Peachland transportation study in 2015 and are part of the Central Okanagan Integrated Transporta-
Coroner confirms identity of woman’s body found in lake
at Antlers Beach
West Kelowna RCMP and the B.C. Coroner service have now confirmed the death of a 40-yearold woman who’s body was found in Okanagan Lake in late April.
“A body of a female was located in the Peachland area of Okanagan Lake by the RCMP’s Underwater Recovery Team on… April 25, 2025,” Kelowna RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Allison Konsmo said in a media release.
tion Network program, the ministry said.
District of Peachland Mayor Patrick Van Minsel, in a media release, also hailed the highway intersection improvements.
“This investment is such a significant step forward to ensure the safety of motorists in our community. These intersections with Highway 97 have long been a concern for residents and these improvements will address a need that has only gotten more pressing over time,” Van Minsel said.
Construction of all three projects have gone to tender and will begin sometime this summer. ••
“The file was then turned over to the B.C. Coroner Service to determine the identity and cause of death. Since then a positive identification has been made and the cause of death is not suspicious.”
The release did not name the woman, however Donna Woodcock, the administrator of the Facebook group Finding Stephanie Woodcock said in a post to the group on June 10 that the coroner had confirmed to her the woman was her daughter.
Stephanie Woodcock was reported missing in in September, 2024. In an attempt to locate her daughter, Donna Woodcock started the Facebook group last fall.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE
Province urges farmers to register their livestock
B.C. ranchers and farmers are being encouraged to register the location of their livestock to protect their animals during emergencies, such as wildfire evacuations, the province announced in a media release.
“Ranchers and farmers are deeply committed to the well-being of their animals, especially in times of crisis,” said Minister of Agriculture and Food Lana Popham. “By registering with Premises ID, they ensure emergency responders have access to fast and accurate information, providing critical support and peace of mind when every second counts.”
Premises ID is mandatory in British Columbia. Registration is free and confidential. The program helps link livestock and poultry to the geographic areas where they
are kept. This information helps emergency responders reach animals faster so they can quickly prioritize assistance during evacuations or animal disease outbreaks, the release said.
“As we approach another wildfire season, it is important that we use what we have learned from the previous years of fire events,” said Kevin Boon, general manager of the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association.
“Premises ID has become a cornerstone of our communications and co-ordination for livestock welfare and movement. Making sure your operation is registered is one more way to help us help you with things like the Ranch Liaison and Range Rider programs.”
According to the release, premises ID is a key component of B.C.’s animal traceability system, which
contributes to ensuring stable, local meat supply chains and market access for livestock producers throughout the province.
“Registering for a Premises ID through this provincial program makes it easier for local governments to support residents with large animals during emergencies when evacuation is required,” said Jamie Vieira, general manager of operations of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District.
“In recent years, our emergency operations centre has been able to support residents more quickly when they have a Premises ID. Whether residents have a hobby farm or a large agricultural production, we encourage all residents to make sure they have a Premises ID set up.” ••

Sunnyside Market has a connection to Captain James Cook, the explorer
Today’s Sunnyside Market on Beach Avenue was for many years called Fulks General Store, owned by father and son, Len and Ken Fulks. They were direct relatives of Captain James Cook, the famous British explorer. In 1958 Len and his wife were on a television quiz show Front Page Challenge and his James Cook ancestry stumped the panel. He was also invited to the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway. Family members were also flown to Australia for a major anniversary celebrating its discovery.
POINT X POINT
• The priority of the mandatory Premises ID program is to help producers prepare for emergencies and be better equipped to respond to them.
• There are more than 10,000 ranchers and farmers registered with Premises ID with 100 per cent supply-managed dairy cattle and poultry participation and over 80 per cent of cattle producers.
• Premises ID registration is currently mandatory in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec and Prince Edward Island.

A light at Trepanier Rd?
How come it took so long to get to it?
Peachlanders, especially those living on the Trepanier Bench, are celebrating the news that the provincial highways ministry is finally going to install a traffic light where Trepanier Road meets Highway 97. The need was identified in a 2015 study. The question is why it took so so long?
If the number of accidents caused by impatient drivers wasn’t enough evidence, then spending five minutes watching hapless drivers trying to negotiate this dangerous intersection should have sufficed.
If you like local news, consider a donation to the
Peachland Post thanks our readers and advertisers for your understanding of our need to temporarily suspend publication during the ongoing dispute between Canada Post and the postal worker’s Union. We now resume publication, in the hope that a strike will continue to be avoided and unless proven otherwise we will (forgive the pun) press on.
Uncertainty about post office delivery is not our only concern. The Post is faced with financial challenges that threaten its sustainability. The founding partners have used their own money to establish the paper and continue to do so to offset the shortfall between advertising revenue and production cost. That shortfall is significant and accumulating.
The District of Peachland was a frequent advertiser in our predecessor newspaper – the for-profit Peachland View – and was for them an important source of revenue. However, times have
changed and the district now prefers to communicate matters such as rezoning proposals, OCP changes, public hearing notices, and public announcements via its website, email distribution, and by periodic mail-out newsletters.
The absence of that potential revenue is particularly significant for as a not-for-profit entity we still needs to at least break even if it is to survive. We are fortunate to have a number of regular advertisers who see the value of having their message reach every home every week, and we are pleased to
see an increasing level of interest from other prospective clients. However, we also need community support in the form of donations.
Option 1 is a straightforward supporter donation of any amount, say $25, $50, or $100. All such donations will be gratefully received and personally acknowledged.
Your donation can be made by cheque mailed or delivered to our office at the TNI Business Centre, 5878 D, Beach Avenue, or sent by e-transfer to accounts@ peachlandpost.org. Unfortunately we are not yet a registered charity and cannot issue tax receipts.
Option 2 is to contact us about becoming a “Sustaining Donor.” This option is for people willing to consider making a donation of $500 or more.
A list of such donors will be maintained and published in each edition, unless anonymity is requested. If the donation reaches the $1,000 level, our front page will also say: This Week’s
Peachland Post
Edition Brought to You by Sustaining Donor (your name here). If you are considering an Option 2 contribution please first email us at info@peachlandpost. org or call (250) 870-6603 so that we can discuss any questions or conditions you may have and provide additional information regarding our status and the importance of your contribution.
We have been greatly encouraged by feedback we have received from readers who enjoy Peachland Post and share our belief that the paper is an important vehicle to keep us connected, build our sense of community, and foster discussion and debate‚ one Peachland, one community, one Peachland Post. Please consider helping us to continue bringing Peachland Post to your mailbox!

SMALL TOWN NEWSPAPER
LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Climate change task force to focus on the hard questions
It’s that time of year again. The threat of wildfires and other emergencies. The B.C. government sent out a news release addressed to B.C. ranchers and farmers. They “are encouraged to register the location of their livestock to protect their animals during emergencies.” We recently received an email about emergency preparedness: Pack your go bag.
dresses existing and emerging environmental sustainability and climate change issues and trends.” The plan is to be completed by December, 2025.
The task force has completed gathering information from focus groups drawn from stakeholder groups. These were youth, Westbank First Nation, hunting, fishing and game groups, Peachland Senior Support Society, other seniors facilities, manufactured home residents, arts council, BEEPS, Folk School, Chamber of Commerce, Lions, Rotary, Peachland Friendship Group, health and wellness groups, hobby farms, and emergency responders. I may have missed some, but you can see that the list is comprehensive.
Considering the unpredictable ways the climate is changing, and potential threats to the community from floods, drought, heat domes, wildfires, and who knows what, the District of Peachland developed a Peachland Climate Action Task Force. Six citizen volunteers comprise this group, along with the chair, Coun. Rick Ingram.
From the district’s website: “The task force provides advice to council on the development of a Climate Sustainability and Resiliency Action Plan that ad-
In the focus groups, people were asked about their individual and group’s environmental concerns. What is important? What are your ideas to promote resilience in the community? What does resilience look like? What needs to be done differently to help protect the community? What are the real threats? How can the district promote environmental awareness? What can individual people do? What about water and food security? Transportation? Energy efficiency? Preserving natural ecosystems? Air quality? Wildlife populations? Biodiversity? Pesticide use? PFAS?
Emergency preparedness? Waste management? Recycling depots?
The task force terms of reference require “the balance between social, environmental and economic aspects,” as well as “including a focus on Peachland’s watersheds.” The task force wants to write a report that is informed by the perspectives of the citizens, because those are the best plans. Not a cookie-cutter approach. Every community is different and needs to approach its challenges in ways that work for that location and population.
There will be one more focus group, for the general public on June 24, from 7 to
9pm. Register at tinyurl.com/ pcatfcc. Have your say.
The task force has done their own homework. They consulted numerous reports and are aware of recommendations from federal and provincial governments on climate change initiatives. The input from the community helps them personalize their report with recommendations for a madein-Peachland response to the challenges of a changing climate.

Economic impact hard to measure but cannot be denied
REELIN’ FROM PAGE 1
President Jonathan Wall.
But Wall says the car show is more than just a collection of gleaming chrome set against a stunning backdrop.
“We view this show as a community asset,” he adds. “The district, the Chamber and all of the volunteers are stewards of this important event.”
With no real industry to speak of and a minuscule commercial sector, Peachland is particularly dependent on showing visitors a good time when they choose to venture off Highway 97, a fact that is not lost on Wall.
In fact, he views community events of all kinds as an important economic sub-sector of the local economy, helping to sustain various Peachland businesses, not just in the busy summer season but throughout the year.
“It really is important,” he says. “And they have a number of benefits. They bring people directly into the community and into local businesses. But they also introduce people to the community and they may see it in a new light. They start to like the charm of Peachland and hopefully they want to come back again.”
Wall says the economic impact of local events can’t be measured the same way larger centres can count hotel room stays and airline flights.
“We don’t have that data in front of us,” he adds.
Instead he points to such tangibles as the $20,000 the car show raised for such things as local youth soccer, Peachland elementary school and the Peachland Wellness Centre.
While the dollars they bring in cannot be directly measured there is no denying the economic impact of community events is real.
One relatively local example:
the City of Kelowna estimated the recent Montana Brier had a direct economic impact of $15.2 million and a total economic impact of $22.7 million in the spring shoulder season.
Beyond actual dollars, Kelowna reported the city’s community profile got a big boost, not only from on-the-ground curling fans but an estimated 4,300 national media articles and a high-profile television broadcast of the event.
The District of Peachland itself takes a direct hand in community events, staging the annual Canada Day celebration and the Christmas Light Up, according to its 2024 annual report. Attendance at the 2024 Canada Day event was estimated at over 6,500.
It also throws financial support behind other events in the form of in-kind donations such as waiving of facility rental fees and providing other city services as well as civic grants to groups staging events.
The car show was an indirect beneficiary of such district support through a $2,000 civic grant to the Peachland Chamber of Commerce while the Peachland Fall Fair has entered into a threeyear agreement where the district waives $3,000 in rental fees for the Peachland Community Hall.
Indeed, support for community events is enshrined in the district’s community recreation policy.
“The district encourages the development of special events to contribute to a feeling of community identity and spirit,” the policy reads. “The district recognizes that local recreation groups and agencies contribute to the quality of life in Peachland through their various efforts and supports groups through access to community facilities.”
Wall gives high praise to the district for its support, though while maybe not huge from a financial standpoint, is critical to the success of many events including the car show, which shuts down a big chunk of Beach Avenue every year.
“The district has been a big partner involving logistics staff, recreation staff, operations staff. Their partnership is indispensable, for access to roads and parking, access to bathrooms,” he said. “Without them, it would be really hard to put on any kind of large event.”
Despite the obvious benefits of frequent community events, Wall says it is possible to have too much of a good thing, given the other impacts that can go along with the economic ones.
“There can definitely be some disruption to residents,” he said. “So I think it’s really important to be giving back to the community and that’s a key focal point of ours.” ••

Long-term benefits of youth sport are extensive
The Peachland Classic Car show organizing committee donated $1,000 this week to the Peachland Youth Soccer Club. This follows similar donations of $500 from the Peachland Lions, $500 from soccer coach Tristin Ahern’s David Co Construction company and $500 from soccer coach Ali Bani-Sadr’s software consulting company, Simplified Tech.
The monies donated will be used to provide Peachland soccer jerseys, designed by the kids, for the 65 Peachland boys and girls, age 6-10 playing on four Peachland Soccer teams this spring.
We have done this for three years now, giving each child their Peachland jersey as a memory of learning to play soccer in Peachland with their friends and classmates.
LOCAL COMMUNITY SPORTS RANDEY BROPHY
But other than getting a cool jersey, designed by the kids, to wear at soccer games, school and the Canada Day parade, what are the lasting benefits to young children from playing team sports?
A paper published by the University of San Diego Department of Professional Education in 2023, “The Benefits of Youth Sport in Child Development”
provides some answers.
A recent British study found that “children now spend twice as much time indoors playing video games as playing outside and that the U.S. Centre for Disease Control recently reported a 20 per cent childhood obesity rate in the United States, clearly, the importance of encouraging physical activity in children and adolescents has never been higher.”
The physical benefits of youth sports for children, aside from greater physical fitness and lower obesity are, according to studies by the U.S. National Athletic Trainer’s Association and the government of the state of Victoria in Australia, lower risk of future illness, including heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes, lower recorded instances of drug abuse, greater
development of hand-eye coordination, functional movement skills, endurance, and strength, better development of bones, muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
Children involved in sports also report improved sleep, greater ability to physically relax and therefore avoid the complications of chronic muscle pain
According to one long-term study, children who participated in youth sports between the ages of nine to 18 were five to six times more likely to be physically active as adults.
October 28, 1939 ~ April 24, 2025
Jean Misutka, a beacon of generosity and love, whose Misutka, Marion
selfless nature touched the lives of many, passed away peacefully on April 24, 2025, in St. Albert, AB. Born on October 28, 1939, in Vermilion, AB, Jean’s journey through life was marked by her unwavering kindness and the joy she brought to those around her. Predeceased by her beloved husband George; parents, Thomas and Irene Chrisp; sisters, Donna, Debbie, and Sherry; brother, Murray; Jean’s legacy of love continues through her family. She is survived by her daughters, Darcy, Vivian (Keith), Laura, and Ruth; grandchildren: Chelsea (Kris), Megan (Logan), Nicole, Natalie, Alana, Leland, Bridget, and Max; and great-grandchildren, Corbin, Ava, Rowan, and Arlo. Her brother, Terry (Marlene), sister-in-law, Anne; and a host of nieces, nephews, and friends also cherish the memory of her warm spirit.
Jean’s life was a testament to the power of passion and dedication. She found great fulfillment in her association with MarTech College of Marketing and Management, where she not only honed her skills but also inspired others to pursue their dreams with vigor. Her enthusiasm for life was infectious, and she could often be found at the bridge or cribbage table, outdancing everyone on the dance floor, and sharing laughter with friends and family. Her zest for these activities reflected her approach to life - embracing every moment with gusto and grace.
A Celebration of Life will be held for Jean on July 4th in her beloved Peachland, B.C. The venue is Lakeshore Gardens, located at 3996 Beach Avenue, Peachland, B.C., in the Recreation Room from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm.
Let us honor Jean’s memory by living as she did, with open hearts, open arms, and an unrelenting commitment to making the world a better place. Her spirit, a guiding light in the lives of many, will forever shine brightly in the hearts of those she loved.
Jean Misutka, a remarkable woman, will be deeply missed, but her legacy of love and generosity will live on for eternity in the hearts of those whose were fortunate to know her.
And remember, always dance.
Rest in love, light and in the arms of those loved ones who went before you.
Always, your daughters.

The academic benefits of youth sports are cited to be lower school dropout rates, better overall academic performance and higher grade point averages, up to 40 per cent higher test scores than their non-sports involved counterparts and a statistically higher likelihood of attending post-secondary education.
Research suggests that former student athletes are more productive at work and see as much as eight per cent higher annual earnings than those who did not participate in youth sports.
Socially, the article states that, “children who participate in youth sports tend to develop stronger peer relationships and have a higher likelihood of participating in civic activities.
It goes on to state that, “as parental involvement in youth sports increases, it also creates new opportunities for kids to interact with their parents, which can improve the parent-children relationship.”
