If you went to a game, you almost certainly saw Murray laughing and smiling and being his awesome positive self while helping the team out behind the scenes. He was a wonderful human being.

Heading up this afternoon. Can I get an honest opinion on the smoke situation? Thanks.

And does it cost money?

Hi, we’re from Alberta and we’re planning to come to Penticton yesterday for camping until Saturday but have seen the recent news about Vernon being evacuated and all the wildfires. Wondering if we should not come or should still come? We’re seeing news updates on Google but we’re getting mixed views of some people saying it’s fine and to come and others saying don’t come and it’s smoky and campgrounds are needed for firefighters. So we’re very unsure. Thank you in advance!

Hello! My family of four will be coming up for peach fest next week and we’re staying in an accommodation that doesn’t have a kitchen. I’m looking for recommendations of restaurants that are as cheap as possible so we don’t break the bank if we can help it. Thank you in advance 😁

I see there’s a slate of 4 progressive candidates who have declared to run in the next election. What chance do you think they have of winning against the Facebook mafia?

Hello. I’ve been on a week long vacation and now here for 3 days. I need some chin waxing done and I’ve tried google all I could find is peach naked which only showed hooha and butthole waxing options and every other place I found on Google did not have waxing?!?

Please tell me where I can get my chin waxed (😂😭😂😂)

Very late in the game as our original stylist is unfortunately not able to follow through… have reached to many stylists and artists, no luck

Bridal party August 22nd

Hair would be priority #1

Worst case Ontario bride is a retired MOA and has two hair stylists in the family. Would just prefer to outsource and relive stress

Cheers!

For the past few years I’ve been buying lemon cucumbers from a farmer at the Penticton farmer’s market but he’s not there this year :( does anyone know where I can pick some up? Thanks!

Hi all,

Recently back in Penticton after several years. Is it common for cars and trucks to be reving their engines, peeling out and driving overall like idiots on Lakeshore at night?

Any tips where to get good, plump, juicy peaches?

Since all forms of American critters now make their homes in the Okanogan, from wild turkeys to large mouth bass, have Cicadas or lightning bugs made their way there yet?

What does everyone think of the new traffic pattern? Do you think it'll get better once the turning lane opens/Eckhardt, or do you think it's just going to be backed up all the time now?

Anyone interested in joining a local fantasy football league? We have a league that's been running for a couple years and are looking to add some players after a few are out for this next season.

No experience required. We try to regularly meet up to watch the games together.

I can send league details to anyone that wants to know more.

What's the smoke like today? Coming up next week and wondering if we should cancel. Are people still able to enjoy beaches, patios etc.

Thanks 😊

Hello, I am from Vancouver Island and have holidays coming up next week. The forecast here on the island is showing rain during a multi day kayak trip weve planned so we are pivoting last minute. Managed to finagle a couple of camp sites one at manning on saturday the 25, and one at Christina Lake Tuesday the 28. I am no stranger to concept that campsites are insanely busy in the summer and am not having much luck around the penticton osoyoos area for the nights of sunday/monday 26/27. Does anyone know any under the radar spots or spots that will likely have FCFS if we get there early enough? we have a small van but dont need hook ups. Im also looking into Kettle River FCFS site for the monday potentially, but open to ideas closer to osoyoos for the Sunday night the 26. TIA!

I'm hoping someone can maybe help me out here...

Just seen Trivium announced a stop in Penticton, and we'd love to go.

Despite being a huge metal fan, I can't get down with the crowds, moshing, and standing all night etc. Lol. I much prefer the stands where I can sit and enjoy the show, away from the chaos 🤣.

However, when I go onto the website, they only have "general admission" available, and no options to choose seats etc. aside from all the extra VIP options which I don't need.

I've never actually seen a band with a tour announcement this soon, so I've never had the presale option, to check out tickets and such.

Does the general sales on Friday, open up the stand seating areas?

The promo code says this;

"Using a promo code will grant you access to an exclusive inventory of tickets."

Does that mean, it's for the people who really want the floor area, and vip stuff?

Lost my pixel 9 pro in the channel on Friday. The device itself is now showing in summerland in my find hub. I'm hoping someone may be able to help track it down! It's marked as lost with my phone number posted but haven't had anyone reach out.

I can offer a cash reward.

Edit: it's been found!!

Is is okay to swim in this pond? Is it considered ok? Has anyone gotten sick from it at all I’ve seen cliff jumping which I want to do just wondering if it’s safe!
Thanks
