Several Vernon beaches along Okanagan Lake close due to a broken sewer line, posing a risk to swimmers.

Broken sewer line closes several Vernon beaches along Okanagan Lake; beaches from Kin Beach to Paddlewheel Park are closed until crews can repair the sewer break, as its location poses a risk to swimmers. High bacteria counts due to the sewer break prevent swimming until water quality tests confirm safety. Signs are posted to advise people to stay out of the water.
