Mission Statement

To provide development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change.

Kelowna Jaycees

Originally founded in 1935 as the Kelowna Junior Board of Trade, the Kelowna Jaycees are celebrating their 75th Anniversary in 2010. The Kelowna Jaycees are one of the long standing success stories in developing young leaders in Canada.

The Kelowna Jaycees are a group of young male professionals and entrepreneurs that strive to grow as individuals while positively impacting our community, Kelowna BC.

We look to strengthen our leadership characteristics by being involved, taking different courses, or working on local, regional, national and international events and projects - all voluntary and all in a welcoming environment.

The Kelowna Jaycees hold a pair of major events every year in support of local Charities:  The Annual Gentlemen's Dinner in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Okanagan and the Smoke on the Water International BBQ Festival.
