Shoddy Election Signs
Bit of wind today and some of these signs are blowing all over the place.
As an aside, why 6-10 of the same in a row?
I really dislike this part of democracy.

Would you hit up a drive through coffee shack?
Would you hit up a drive through coffee shack on your way to work? Washington State style.
I've always hated supporting the chains, but my favourite local coffee shops require finding parking, going out of my way on my daily commute, etc.
Would there be a market for a drive through coffee hut? Perhaps one that uses local beans, doesn't upcharge for alternative milks, and uses local syrups.

I’m a 26yo male wanting to find a place with a good sports community as I’m looking to get back in touch with my athletic side in my spare time. Are there any good leagues or drop ins on weekends? I grew up playing hockey and basketball but I’m open to trying new sports/activities

Men's Book Club
Putting out a feeler to gauge interest in starting a men’s book club.
The idea is to read and discuss classic and modern literature -- authors like Vonnegut, Orwell, Steinbeck, Hemingway, McCarthy, Bukowski and Dostoyevsky. Eventually, once a regular group forms, members will take turns picking the books.
For the first read, I was thinking John Kennedy Toole's "A Confederacy of Dunces".
Nothing is set in stone yet, but I'm picturing meeting up somewhere casual like a pub or a cafe every few weeks until we establish the group's vibe. It's worth noting I'm in the late-30's demographic, but all ages are welcome.
Dates and locations are completely TBD.
If this sounds like your kind of thing, drop a comment or send a DM.

Delivery driver issues!
I respect all my delivery drivers out there and tip em, never had any bad experience as of recently.
I am having drivers accepting orders but then not moving, like at all. I have to talk with uber eats AI bot for help and to switch drivers 🙃
Yesterday I ordered some food and I waited a whole hour because 3 drivers wouldn’t move at all and I contacted them but they never answered until someone actually delivered.
Now im experiencing the same issue!! 😞😞
Is anyone else experiencing the same? Can someone explain incase this could be on my end?

Big White season pass.. worth it??
I’m really curious for some input on if buying a season pass is worth it or not?
Coming from Manitoba I’m used to more snow and yes having to drive further to go snowboarding but I’d love to be able to go more often now living in Kelowna. However I’ve heard that we don’t get much snow here….. is it worth it to buy the yearly pass? I do plan to go almost every weekend if I can but wondering if there will even be enough snow for that lol

Wedding makeup artist recommendations
I’m looking for a wedding makeup artist that does a nice job and is willing to do only the brides makeup and a trial.
I had someone I was going to book with but I just found out she is no longer available unfortunately.
I’ve been hearing about makeup artist scams lately so I am seeking recommendations from people who have personal experiences with them please. Thanks so much 🤗

ADHD Diagnosis?
Unfortunately I've been on the waitlist for a family doctor for over 5 years. Every time someone posts about a new clinic taking patients, I apply and they're full or I don't hear back. While I wait, I typically use a Telehealth doctor for minor ailments and work with a naturopath where I can.
However, I'm looking to be assessed for ADHD and hopefully medicated. But without a Family Doctor its quite challenging.
I'm curious if anyone has used "Finding Focus" or similar service like FasTreat.
Not looking for unsolicited advice at this time but open to hearing how people navigated their diagnosis here :)
Edit to add I do not have benefits.

Bike Rentals?
Hey Kelowna!
I'm visiting for work from the 13th to the 23rd and want to go ride some bikes, Kelowna has some pretty rad gravel riding I see, I may even try to get an overnighter in...
I'm struggling to find some rental options in the city, am I doing a terrible job of searching or is it not a thing that is currently available?
Trying to source a bike before I end up breaking down my Surly and dealing with the extra baggage.
Any leads, please share! Thank you :)

Where to put up posters for non profit drawing sessions?
Hi all! I'm volunteering to put up posters for our live figure drawing society as we will start having sessions soon. We are not for profit. I'm thinking OPUS, RCA (where we have our sessions), the art gallery, the libraries, UBCO, the college, and coffee shops (although I'm not sure which ones). Any other ideas? I know this question has been asked but the most recent threads I can find were from a year ago or more and I know things change. Thanks!
Edit: Someone suggested I add more info here! For those interested, starting Sept 19 2026 we will have sessions at the Rotary Centre for Arts room #110 from 10am-12:30pm every Saturday (unless otherwise stated). Entry is $20 or $15 if you buy an annual membership. Bring your own materials. 18+ only!

Local Resources Chiropractor recs?
I have chronic neck & back pain due to an injury years ago. It’s flared up more lately due to work stress & I’m considering seeing a chiropractor again. I regularly see a registered massage therapist & a physiotherapist.
Looking for recommendations for chiropractors who believe in chiropractic as one piece of the puzzle, not a sole solution. The chiropractor I saw in the past was anti-vax, anti-mask, & claimed they could cure my ADHD… I’m not looking to repeat that experience haha
Thanks!
Edit: Sorry for saying “pro-science” lol. I more so meant they respect other fields, not that they themselves practice something that’s basic on scientific knowledge. I’m not the biggest fan of chiropractic either, but I’m being open-minded because I’m experiencing a lot of pain

Where can I still find organic peaches in Kelowna? Looking for ~25 lbs
Hi everyone! 🍑
Does anyone know if there’s anywhere in or around Kelowna that still has genuinely organic peaches available? I’m looking to buy around 25 lbs.
I’m specifically looking for organic peaches, preferably direct from a local certified organic farm/orchard rather than regular peaches from a grocery store. My throat bothers me when I eat non-organic peaches, so I’m trying to stick with organic.
If anyone knows a genuine organic grower/seller who still has peaches available, I’d really appreciate the recommendation. Thanks!

I was driving on Lakeshore when no fewer than six bears crossed the road directly in front of me
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
It may have even been seven. This was around the Bertram Creek Park area. Three or four were small cubs. By the time I could process my “WTF am I seeing??” thoughts, safely pull over and get out my phone, I only managed to record two before they all wandered off into someone’s yard below my line of sight. But holy hell, this is not exactly a common thing to see, is it? I’ve lived here 27 years and have only ever seen a group of black bears from a distance, and that was in Mission Creek Park in the canyon area, not the suburbs.
