The Heaven Can Wait ProgramWe provide one- to two-hour pontoon boat trips on the Vernon arm of Okanagan Lake. From June 1 to Sept 30 the program runs pre-scheduled trips, Monday through Friday, with weekend trips on an as-needed basis to accommodate special requests like Father’s Day outings, birthdays, and other special events.
Operating under the regulations and approval of Transport Canada, our 35 volunteer captains are licensed, trained and have standard first aid. They make the safety and comfort of our special passengers a priority. In the 26 years of operation there has never been an emergency situation or accident. To date we have made over 2600 trips, carrying more than 20,900 passengers. |
Want to be a Volunteer Captain?
We are looking for volunteers to help us pilot our pontoon boat on beautiful Lake Okanagan, one day a week during the summer. It is a wonderful volunteer experience, with happy, sweet clients. Bad weather? No way! We are always careful to protect the comfort and safety of our passengers. Experience with boats is desirable, but not mandatory. We train you!
Many of our captains have happily volunteered for many, many years. See our latest Morning Star article: Lifetime Members
