Each billboard will feature members of the Penticton Indian Band living healthy lifestyles with positive messaging.

The idea is to inspire Band members to have pride in their community and strive to be showcased on the next series of billboards.

As part of Aboriginal Addictions Awareness week, the Harlem Clowns will be playing the Syilx Championship co-ed basketball team this Wednesday at 6:30 at the new Outma school.

Admission to the game is a non perishable food donation.
