Message from the Mayor:
Dear Peachland Residents and Visitors,
Even as the summer is winding down, the Peachland Community Centre is gearing up for a busy season of programs and events.
The Fall Recreation Guide provides a variety of community-wide programs and events that enable you to map out a season of fun for you and your family. There is always a lot to do as the temperatures cool down, including indoor volleyball and pickleball, Mexican cooking classes, yoga, outdoor bootcamp, pottery lessons and much more! Children and youth can learn to make pottery, play soccer and baseball, and earn their home alone or babysitting certificate.
All of these activities help to connect the community too, as participants get together with old friends and meet new ones.
Some of Peachland’s most popular community events occur in the cooler months. I’m very much looking forward to the Family Glow Run, Halloween Spooktacular, Christmas Celebrations and Polar Bear Run and Swim. I will see you there!
In service, Mayor Patrick Van Minsel
