Okanagan College staff, along with representatives of the Alumni Association, had the pleasure of hosting a coffee break at Community Futures in Vernon recently.  23 of the 35 staff employed by Community Futures, North Okanagan have completed courses through Okanagan College or its predecessor, OUC.		Kathy Butler and Katerina Hay were joined by Okanagan College Alumni Association director John Perrot when they paid a visit to Scotiabank’s downtown Kelowna branch to reconnect with alumni. Ten Okanagan College alumni are currently working at Scotiabank branches around Kelowna, the majority of whom are graduates of the Okanagan School of Business. Seven alumni were able to attend the visit, where they were brought up to speed on changes at Okanagan College and the opportunities that exist for alumni involvement. After catching up over coffee, Gladys Fraser presented Kathy Butler with a cheque for $2,655 to support the Okanagan College Foundation.
If you would like Okanagan College and the Alumni Association to host an Okanagan College Works Here! coffee break at your workplace, contact the alumni office at alumni@okanagan.bc.ca to get more information.
