Looks like parking at UBCO for the 2026-2027 school year is all booked and a waitlist situation. My daughter will be living downtown. Is there a place she can park for free then ride the bus to campus? Ideally this would be a spot that shorten her bus ride to school.

Need recs for wedding venues in the Okanagan. Can be anywhere from Osoyoos to Vernon.

Outdoor ceremony, ideally a place that provides tables, chairs, setup + take down.

Beautiful views/vibes are what we're after!

Looking for a dermatologist that uses a dermascope. My current one doesn’t so looking to switch. Not looking to go private.

English tutor based in Kelowna, can do one-on-one tutor.

To climb that gym is it a good idea to have some experience or is it welcoming to someone who’s never done it before?

Does anyone know what the plan is for the triangle of space between Spall/Glenmore, Bernard and Clement?

Not just for the comfort, but to be able to save enough money as well. I got a job opportunity in Kelowna, and it would require me to move there if I accept the job.

Right now, I’m a full-time employee at a marketing agency here in Alberta, making $28/hr. No kids, just two cats. I rented a 1BR apartment before, which was around $1.2K a month, and honestly, I barely saved any money.

I haven’t given my salary expectations to this potential employer in Kelowna yet because I’m still having second thoughts about whether it’s worth moving there. It is my dream job, but at the same time, saving money is important to me.

I'm looking for a place to watch the korean film Colony when it comes out on the 28th. Anyone know where it will be showing?

Looking for somewhere that has decent prices on new propane tanks (20lb). And also any places that refill propane tanks for good value that don’t rip you off.

Was hoping for a decent caffeine hit to prevent the late afternoon, white noise-induced plane somnolence, but was surprised that the cart's gone. Anyone know if it's coming back?

I completely understand that the wildfires are devastating to local businesses, but I found this article incredibly tone-deaf. There are people in our community who have lost their homes, businesses, and everything they own. In that context, leading with the loss of 75% of August business feels very out of touch. There’s a time to acknowledge business losses, but right now I think a little perspective and sensitivity are warranted.

Hi All,

I’m looking for a private event bartender for 2 days for a private social gathering. Any recommendations on reputable bartenders?

hi! im a student at UBCO, will be potentially moving into the mix on robson (265 robson rd west if you’re curious), ive barely been to rutland throughout my 4 years in kelowna to be honest, so I don’t really know what to expect living there.
based in calgary due to some commitments here so i decided to stay there without even checking the surrounding areas so idk what to expect (times are tough to get a place at this point)

Questions:

1. Is it safe for women to walk around rutland especially late evenings (my classes end at night) and that one single visit i had to rutland was sorta weird bcs i got catcalled multiple times (by unhoused and housed people) which kinda ruined the vibe a bit, i was wearing a really thick puffer jacket so idk what happened there

2. if you’re also living in the same building and happen to study at ubco and come home at night let me know! im looking for female friends to walk home together from the bus stop which is 9 mins away 😕

im aware of negative comments people make about rutland but im hoping thats not true at all plus bad things happen in all places right? sorry for the lengthy post :) but pls know i mean well

Anyone else lose power a little while ago?

Hey everyone! 👋 I’m hoping to meet some Asian gay/queer guys in Kelowna who are interested in friendship and hanging out.
Not looking for dating or hookups — just genuine friends to grab coffee or food with, go for hikes, check out events, watch movies, or just hang out.
I’d especially love to connect with people who share both the Asian and LGBTQ+ experience, but everyone friendly and respectful is welcome. 😊🏳️‍🌈
Feel free to comment or DM if you’re interested!

Have a camping trip booked during the Labour day weekend. Is it safe to camp or should I cancel it?
