CONTEST CLOSED! Congratulations to our randomly selected winner Danielle!
We know why you're here. You want to experience what it's like to be a member of the Kelowna Yacht Club (KYC) for a day!
So let's get to it.
If you're the lucky winner, you and your crew will be invited to experience how inviting and progressive the Kelowna Yacht Club is.
You'll receive four passes for two-hour kayak/paddleboard rentals (valued at $180) followed by a free dining experience from the comfort of the KYC waterfront patio.
To go with your paddling to patio adventure, you and three friends will have access to many of these following luxurious KYC membership perks and amenities for the day.
Upscale-casual dining
This prize package includes a free meal for four, but you'll want to become a member just to try out all of the nightly features and weekend brunch options. Also, if you rent a slip, you can take advantage of dockside food and drink delivery.
Private event hosting
Catering and events teams will make your special event or business meeting look as smooth as Okanagan Lake at sunrise.
Members also save 25% off banquet space room rentals, which is reason #75 to extend your one-day membership.
Superior moorage
Members have secure and central facilities with the best seat in the house for any downtown Kelowna event.
Social events
Speaking of events, there are a lot of ways to socialize with your fellow members... and prize winners such as yourself.
Networking
From lifelong members spanning generations at the club to members for a day and those without a yacht who simply want to paddleboard, the people you'll meet will happily greet you and treat you as their kin... but why? Because when you're on the water, you look out for each other and KYC members extend these sentiments to the mainland.
Partner clubs
Special privileges at other clubs, both locally and globally... yup, we told you that members look out for you!
24-hour access to the clubhouse
Can you say "home away from home"? No matter the time of day, your keycard lets you come and go like ships that pass in the night. Members have access to the atrium, washrooms and showers 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Discounted rates for sailing programs and rentals
The membership extends past the clubhouse. See you on the water!
Opportunity for boating education and volunteering
This is the opportunity to become a superior sailor or an elite pleasure-craft enthusiast.
Year-round on-the-dock storage for your kayak/paddleboard
You'll have it for the day, but why not secure your storage for the year by getting a membership? Or, check out the Paddle Club.
Daily bicycle parking
A safe place to store your bike in the heart of downtown Kelowna is worth the price of entry.
Whew! That’s a lot of perks!
Alright, now back to the prize!
On the day of your choosing, you and your three friends will start your sunny September day with a two-hour kayaking/paddleboarding adventure on Okanagan Lake.
Upon your return, you and your crew will be seated and treated to a patio experience from the comfort of the Kelowna Yacht Club's beautiful lakefront location in the heart of downtown.
Since this is a membership exclusive dining experience, you'll feel safe socializing in a place where only a small group of people can dine alongside you. Within the club, there are physical distancing measures in place to protect everyone and our community too.
