Kelowna airport is set to dazzle the community with its third annual Helicopter Ball Drop on July 10 at the Okanagan Golf Club. A helicopter will release 872 golf balls onto the driving range, offering participants a thrilling spectacle and a chance to win great prizes.

A grass fire north of Kelowna airport late Monday afternoon was likely sparked by farm equipment, according to the Kelowna Fire Department. Agricultural workers battled the flames by hand and with machinery as the fire spread through the area.
