Neighbours help Central Park campers move to Royal Athletic Park lot after flooding

Darrin Murphy, who has been living in a tent in the park with his partner since July, said every­thing inside their tent is wet and covered in mould. “I don’t know what warmth is anymore,” he said. Murphy said in low-lying areas of the park, closer to Crystal Pool, three to four inches of water seeped into his neighbours’ tents. On Wednesday morning, he was preparing to move to the parking lot and into a dry tent. “It will be nice to get out of this wet, mouldy tent.” People living in the park were given sleeping bags and cots Tuesday, but some lost everything to the flooding, said Jen Wilde, regional co-ordinator for the Greater Victoria Extreme Weather Protocol. “Their personal gear, their clothing is all soaked, so they’re all running to the laundromat to get it cleaned and dried. It’s a mess. It’s a total mess out here. They are living in a mud puddle,” she said.
