Kelowna is the largest inland city in British Columbia, located in the heart of BC's wine country. It has a population of 105,000 with another 40,000 in an unincorporated area across the lake.

The Downtown City Park offers a great environment in the summer to sun tan play and enjoy yourself or with your family playgrounds as well as the water and skate board park offer for a great time in the sun.

The main industry in Kelowna is tourism, with its requisite offering of service industry jobs at or slightly above minimum wage. The local ski hill Big White offers winter employment for ski/board instructors, liftees, servers, and so on. If you will be staying in Kelowna between May and September, book your accommodations well in advance, especially for weekends.
