Welcome to Kelowna!

If you are new to the Kelowna area, eager to learn more about your chosen community, get involved in fun activities and meet new friends, Kelowna Newcomers Club is the place for you!

For more than half a century, the KNC has helped new arrivals to the Central Okanagan settle in to their new homes. From regular indoor and outdoor social activities to special functions, we offer something for every taste. So explore these pages and find out how the KNC can help you fall in love with this sensational place!

Visit us at our next monthly meeting:

The KNC meets on the third Thursday evening of every month, from September through June.

The meetings are a chance to mix and mingle, to learn about our many activities, and to profit from our fascinating speakers series. 

The meetings take place at First Lutheran Church and School, 4091 Lakeshore Road.  Meetings are an opportunity to find out more about the various activities offered by the club.

Doors open at 6:45 p.m., giving members a half hour to chat and sign up for activities. The regular business of the meeting, including the featured guest speaker, gets underway at 7:15. 

If you have experienced difficulty joining or renewing your membership through the new online payment system, you will find volunteers at the meetings to help you.  Please note that the KNC does not accept cheques sent in the mail, so if you are unable to use the online payment system, please bring a cheque to the next monthly meeting.
