Okanagan motorcyclists spread positivity, one retirement home at a time

The riders have visited retirement homes around the South Okanagan, thanking front line workers

A group of motorcycle riders have taken on the task of spreading positivity around the Okanagan, and on Saturday they visited Penticton.

Just before lunch, frontline health care workers gathered out front the Haven Hill Retirement Centre in anticipation of special guests soon to arrive. Residents sat looking out their windows.

Neutral faces quickly turned joyful as numerous motorcycle riders with the Southern Interior Christian Riders, Chapter 49, turned into the parking lot, honking and revving their engines. Parked, they displayed signs which read, 91裸聊视频淕ratitude,91裸聊视频 91裸聊视频淥ur prayers,91裸聊视频 91裸聊视频淐are staff,91裸聊视频 and more.

Residents and bikers waved to each other through their windows. Care workers made a heart symbol with their hands.
