Winfield at a Glance
Located in the renowned Okanagan
Valley, Winfield enjoys the benefits of long sunny days, which foster the
growth of its many apple and peach orchards, cherry trees and other appetizing
crops. Situated in Lake Country along the shores of Wood Lake, this community
profits from a burgeoning tourism industry. The surrounding lakes abound with
recreational activities, including sailing, scuba diving and soaking up the
sun on a beach. Due to the miracle of the Okanagan
microclimate, the area also celebrates the advantages of nearby ski and snowboard
resorts. Winfield nurtures an accomplished art community, which presents the
annual ArtWalk
each fall. The event promotes local artists with aptitudes ranging from singing
to painting to carving and beyond. Positioned to the west is Okanagan Lake,
which is the rumoured home of the infamous lake-monster Ogopogo.
Throughout the years many have claimed to see a large tail slide beneath the
waves or a flipper slap the face of the water, each sighting adding to speculations
that Ogopogo dwells on the bottom of this deep lake. Rewards for photographs
of Ogopogo have led people to spend many hours scouring the shores, waiting
for the mysterious creature to appear.
