One of the Okanagan害羞草研究所檚 most popular game and amusement centres has temporarily closed its doors due to this weekend害羞草研究所檚 flooding in Kelowna.

Scandia Golf and Games is in clean up and repair mode after Mill Creek spilled its banks as the result of heavy rains on Friday.

The basement of Scandia, which houses the jungle golf area, was flooded with about 30 centimetres of water.

If not for a 10-metre long burm built on the fly with excavating equipment, Scandia general manager Sebastian Ribbink said the amount of water entering the building could have easily been four to five times deeper.

The outdoor grounds, particularly the mini golf course, were also largely submerged in water.

By Sunday morning, the creek water levels had receded considerably to allow cleanup to begin.

While the basement will require several weeks to fully dry and repair, Ribbink is hoping the remainder of the amenities at Scandia will re-open early this week, including the arcade, batting cages, mini golf and go karts.
