This historic photo is of Peachland waterfront and wharf, circa the 1920s.

The paddle wheeler SS Sicamous is at the wharf and in the foreground appears the unique eight-sided Peachland Baptist Church, built-in 1910, serving as a place of worship until 1964.

It then saw use as a temporary municipal hall, parks and recreation office, public library and fire brigade hall.

Since 1980 the building has been used as the Peachland Museum.

The photo was posted to the Facebook group Old Kelowna.
