Cutting edge competitors: Kelowna skating club takes podium and ends season

The Kelowna Skating Club (KSC) had a strong, competitive finish to the season. The KSC hosted the BC Super Series Star Final last weekend at the Capital News Centre and won eight medals for the local club.

Kelowna’s Emily Sales, Brooklyn Cowen and Kira Koffler took gold, silver and bronze for the Juvenile Women under 14 category. Sales also won silver in the STAR 9 event.
