What a glorius day to celebrate the opening of the Okanagan Rail trail. This amazing trail runs from down town Kelowna to Coldstream in the norh. It will prove to be one of the Okanagn's greatest treasures. The City of Kelowna played a pivotal role in securing this trail, both in leadership and financing. It is one of thengs I am most proud of. Secondly, the teamwork in achieving this day was unprecendented. Federal, Provincial and municipal governments worked together and the citizens of the valley, working with the ORT committee, they raised the money for the trail improvements. Millions of dollars raised and invested into this great asset. Congradulations are in order for all who made this happen.
