Administration, Human Resources, IT, Finance & Corporate Services,
Creekside Theatre and Live in Lake Country! websites
Webpages were developed for Creekside Theatre and Live in Lake Country! to integrate with www.okanaganway.ca
consistent with the community branding and yet maintain their individual character for promoting theatre
entertainment and summer concerts in the parks. Both www.creeksidetheatre.com and www.liveinlakecountry.ca
domain names were retained and redirect website visitors to the appropriate section of the okanaganway.ca
website.
Online Ticketing System
The benefits and services provided through an online ticketing system were investigated and a contract
arrangement was established with Kelowna Tickets for online ticket sales.
First Lake Country Indoor Children’s Festival
The first ever Lake Country Indoor Children’s Festival presented
by TD Bank was hosted at the Lake Country Community Complex
on Saturday, February 27 th from 11am to 3pm.
Fun for children of all ages included: face painting, bouncy
castle, caricatures by Marzio, a talent competition, Trixie the
Clown, and entertainer Leif David in the Creekside Theatre;
artisan booths, craft tables and a pop-up clothing store as well
as LCFD Firefighter Combat Challenge, a building blocks area
hosted by Lake Country Health Planning Society and a drum
booth by Wentworth Music for young musicians.
“There are so many families in Lake Country
and neighbouring Kelowna and Vernon, that
organizing a Children’s Festival at our
terrific Community Complex was at the top
of my list of priority activities to make
happen in 2016,” says Cultural Development
Coordinator Ryan Donn. “As a parent
myself, I’m always attentive to events for
families that offer interactive fun and
learning experiences for a variety of
ages. Having TD Bank as the title sponsor is
a really good fit because they have a very
community-minded approach to business and
a local presence on Lake Country’s Main
Street.”
