Try out this DIY holiday wreath

Social media is full of do-it-yourself videos ahead of the holidays. True crafters make the projects look easy, but are they as simple as they appear on social media? We wanted to find out, so Toby, from 103.1 Beach Radio, put the popular 'Pool Noodle Wreath' project to the test. Give the video a watch to see what she made!

Take in a classic holiday tale

Ebeneezer Scrooge is back in Kelowna, brought to life by the Kelowna Actors Studio. The rendition is based off the musical, which premiered in 1994 in New York City. The classic story centres around a greedy, selfish, curmudgeon old man who hates Christmas.
