Twenty-two members represent the Okanagan in various age groups and divisions. The club brought home nine medals competing against top skaters from B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Skaters Emily Sales, Abby Bulawka, Gwenyth Preston, Sophie Sanderson and Ariana Rose performed well but just missed the podium.

A trio of Kelowna skaters competed in the highly competitive Junior Women’s division which featured seven current and former national medalists; Emma Bulawka, Olivia Gran and Vienna Harwood finished 5th, 6th and 7th respectively.
The next BC Super Series skate is in October.
