Young Professional Ice Cream Social

Instead of our usual coffee social, we’re mixing things up with an Ice Cream Social — a casual and fun way to network with young professionals and enjoy a treat together.

Here’s what to expect:

The first 50 attendees will receive either a gelato cup or a cold/hot Americano — on us — from the amazing Sandrine French Pastry and Chocolate on Lakeshore road!

No Entrance Fee: Joining us is free!

Come When You Can: Drop by anytime between 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Stay for a quick chat or linger longer over your gelato — the pace is yours to set.

Whether you’re in the mood for something sweet or a caffeine boost, we’ve got you covered.

Not sure if you should come to our Ice Cream Social? Join us if you are:

• New to town

• A fresh face to business
• Under forty
• Over forty (don’t worry, we don’t i.D.)

The Okanagan Young Professionals (OYP) Collective is a program of the COEDC, and a hub of resources to help attract and retain talent in the region. There’s no membership and we don’t sell anything (other than why it’s so great to live here). All are welcome to come out and join to connect with other awesome young professionals in our community!
