Hello Bloggers et al,
This month's blog will be a brief one as the summertime activities are all back to normal. So please mind the campfires as the area as the conditions for fires have increased. Onto recap a few subjects...
1) The East Vernon Rd section that BX Creek had washed out is temporarily repaired. So traffic can now traverse the creek but it is bumpy and caution is advised. As far as we know, Tillicum Rd. hasn't been fixed yet. If anyone has information about that area please place it in the comments section.
2) The association's directors have been at the "BX Ranch Park" for a couple days with informal questionnaires. The response from these has been impressive. A total to date is 162 completed questionnaires. The directors will be at the park sometime during the weekday evenings. This was a suggestion from a few park users that weekday evenings are when others (who don't use it on the weekends) are in attendance. The specific day isn't decided yet, but we are estimating a window of 5-8pm (approximately) to make the questionnaires available. Thank you all for the participation and comments. Kudos to the park users who help maintain the cleanliness of the park. Will keep bloggers informed of the results after they are all filled out and collected. After the results are tabulated, the questionnaires will be forwarded to the Regional District of the North Okanagan for consideration on what ammenties the park could use (as suggested by park users.)
3) The 'seed swap' is still being considered as a park event in the next spring. More to follow once it has been worked out. One question in the questionnaire was "Would you like to attend a summer event at the BX Ranch Park?" So if there are suggestions for an event, please leave them in the comments section below.
4) Alas, the berry season is apparently finishing. However, the apricots and peaches are next and the apples will be ready in Sept. The harvest will be eagerly anticipated.
Thanks to all who view the blog and we will post more soon.
