Reed Creek is a strange stream – lots of water – a babblin’ brook for sure. Runs well to Cellar Rd – into the gap and basically goes underground before the golf course crossing.
A bit of a mystery to me. Would seem that lower portions of Reed Creek only flow or show when the hole in the ground cannot handle all the runoff.

We are grateful to the Town of Oliver for their assistance with the addition of signage, portable washrooms in the downtown core and Park Ambassadors that will be focused on education of COVID-19 measures and bylaws, supervision of park facilities and disinfection of touch points in Lion’s Park throughout the month of May.
All Oliver parks, green spaces and trails remain open at this time to provide an opportunity to care for pets, walk, bike, and connect with nature. Public washrooms are open from 8:00am8:00pm in Lion’s Park, Community Park, Kinsmen parking lot and Rotary Park and are being sanitized every 3 hours. As of May 2, the Small Wheels Park and Off-Leash Dog Park in Lion’s Park have re-opened, however it is essential that people respect the terms of use if they are to remain open.
Hospitalized cases rose from 72 on May 2 to 77 patients currently in hospital, with 20 of those people in intensive care units (ICUs).
206 Hospitals in BC

Most beds used for Covid-19 patients believed to be Fraser Valley or Metro Vancouver
A lot of the deaths clustered at senior long term care facilities – infection transfer by persons in those facilities.
Infection transfer in the community – most self isolate at home.
Infection clusters at prisons, foreign farm workers etc.
No reports of infections at food stores, pharmacies and hardware stores.
RECOVERY RATE FOR MOST PEOPLE 9O% FOR PERSONS 1-65
You may want to debate these opinions – I say opinions because the government is saying little about statistics.
