We are very happy to publicly thank Clayton Hillman and TL Timber Ltd for their very generous in-kind donation of lumber for the left and right arches on the wheel cover of the SS Sicamous.
TL Timber Ltd's contribution provided essential materials that played a direct role in the successful restoration of one of the most visible and iconic features of the SS Sicamous.
TL Timber Ltd. is a family operated business specializing in the manufacturing of custom log homes, cabins, log siding, custom cut timbers & more.
The Wheel Cover Project is a key component of our ongoing mission to preserve and restore this historic sternwheeler for future generations.
The high-quality lumber provided by TL Timber Ltd allowed us to complete the project with confidence, ensuring that the integrity and appearance of this historic vessel are maintained with authenticity and care.
Thanks to this tremendous support, the project has moved forward, but we're not there yet.
If you're able, please consider making a donation to help us reach our goal and preserve this cherished piece of Penticton's history for generations to come!
