Kelowna Auto Dealers Association Drives Community Impact with OC Rec Centre Support

The Kelowna Auto Dealers Association (KADA), of which Orchard Ford is a proud member, is helping fuel progress in our community—literally! KADA has contributed $55,000 toward the completion of the Okanagan College Recreation Centre, a major milestone in bringing this long-awaited community facility to life.

The generous donation is part of the Strive to Thrive Campaign, which aims to create a modern, inclusive space for fitness, wellness, and student life on the Okanagan College Kelowna campus. This facility will not only serve OC students but also the broader Kelowna community for years to come.

Why It Matters

The new rec centre is designed to enhance both physical and mental well-being, with updated spaces for recreation, training, and community programming. With rising demand for accessible wellness spaces, this development supports a growing and active Kelowna population.

By supporting this project, Orchard Ford and fellow KADA members are helping build a stronger, healthier community.

“We believe in giving back to the city that supports us,” said a KADA representative. “Supporting the Okanagan College Rec Centre is an investment in the future of Kelowna.”
