October is full of celebrations around here! A throwback to Tristan turning 22, when friends and family stopped by to hang out, share a bite, open presents, and enjoy birthday cake. Do we have any other October birthdays in the community? Let us know in the comments! 🍰

ACT headed out to TsĂștswecw Provincial Park for the Salute to the Sockeye Festival opening ceremony!

Everyone walked through the forest trail down to the creek to welcome the salmon to their spawning grounds for this "dominant year," which brings millions of fish every 4 years. It was an incredible experience listening to the Skwlāx te SecwepemcĂșl ecw drumming, singing, smudging, and prayers along the water.

Thank you to The Adams River Salmon Society for hosting this special event.

We really are so lucky to call Vernon home. Lakes, local trails - there’s no shortage of great spots to connect and unwind right in our backyard, and exploring them together is one of our favourite parts of what we do at Venture Living.

Wishing everyone in the North Okanagan a peaceful rest of the week!

Learning how to check under the hood is one of those practical skills that can come in handy in everyday life. We recently got the chance to get some hands-on practice with basic vehicle checks!Getting comfortable around cars is a huge win for personal independence.

Speaking of that, when was the last time you checked your oil? (Consider this your friendly reminder! 😉)
