Greetings again Bloggers,
Welcome to the usual summer weather, we suggest trying to stay cool. A reminder that this weather can be dangerous for pets, etcetera. Enjoy the valley summer activites (to numerous to mention,) safely.
The mural that is for the "Sunflower Project" here in Vernon has been completed for some time. I believe it was done by mid June. The other murals are to be done at the locations of the other 21 internment sites across Canada. Vernon was the first, and it can be seen beside the A&W in the fruit union plaza, on the 'backside' of the "Sutton" building. For more information please refer to this link http://michelleloughery.org/tag/sunflower-project/ and http://www.internmentcanada.ca/ as well.
Some discussion has arisen regarding some activity up Hartnell Rd area. Some may have seen the article in the morning star http://www.vernonmorningstar.com/news/215151731.html . There will be varying opinions on this subject matter. However, the access to the upper residential areas have only one road. So, if any careless behavior actually led to a forest fire per se that could easily damage property and/or threaten people's well being. If we all act responsibly and in a civil manner then these issues resolve themselves. We anticipate more discussion on this subject. Your comments or thoughts are apreciated in the comment section below. Or email the assoc. at the address in previous blogs.
That's all for now, stay tuned for more to come....
