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, 香蕉视频直播淕ratitude,香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播淥ur prayers,香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播淐are staff,香蕉视频直播� and more.

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