The Kiwanis Walking Pier received further damage from waves whipped up by the windstorm Saturday afternoon.

The pier has been closed since it received heavy damage wind-driven waves in a storm in May. Okanagan Lake is considerably higher, and the June 10 windstorm again drove high waves against the pier.

Weeber said most sandbagged areas along the lakeshore held but there were spots needing sandbags replaced, which is being handled by fire crews. Loose sandbags will be removed, and monitoring by Penticton parks staff will continue.

A small stretch of the Okanagan Lake walkway near the pines was underwater but was drained on Saturday by public works crews. Another section of the walkway, near Pier Watersports, is closed because of debris driven up out of the lake. That is expected to be cleaned up Monday.
