Flood of talent needed

One of the fastest growing financial tech companies in the country is Refresh Financial and they are located right here in our own backyard.

Their goal is simple: help you build better credit safely and reach your financial goals. Your success is so important to them that they offer a free money education course to get a head for good.

Their product and service is so great that they need to have a hiring fair.  It is being held on June 15 at Refresh Financial in the Landmark Buildings from 5-7 p.m.  

Go in and meet the staff, play a game of ping pong and hear about the awesome benefits that come with being an employee of Refresh. 

One of the first lines on their event talks about their core values of respect and being the champions of time, talent and treasure.

Watch out for this company as they will make one of the top companies to work for in Canada and if I am right Michael Wendland will become one of the biggest philanthropists this world has ever seen.

Talking about talented champions, Wilbur's Piano Bar at WIne & Art is stepping it up once again by offering Jazz Alive @ 5. Every Friday from 5-7 p.m.

You can wine down your week in style with live jazz on their baby grand piano while you enjoy a selection of happy hour wines, beers and half price feature tapas.

Wilbur's Piano Bar has always been the place to be but even more so now after work. Reservations recommended. 

I am constantly amazed at Kelowna's art scene. 

Who thought an Art Battle would ever be a big thing. If you have never heard of this or been to an art battle, you need to check out the OK Corral on June 16 for Art Battle Kelowna.

This is a night of live competitive painting and connecting with others through art. Painters have 20 minutes to take their canvasses from blank to beautiful and then the audience picks the winner.

You're allowed to watch the painters work, and move around the easels to examine the creative process. 

You need to check out their event page to learn what tools are allowed and learn how you might be able to take your favorite painting home with you. 

Another creative new event is merlot and munchies.  

This is being held at the Fixx Cafe, which is one of the best restaurants in Kelowna. Chef Jeremy has teamed up with Rollingdale wine maker Brendan Smith to create a five-course, paired dinner.

Seats are filling fast for this June 11 event, so cross your fingers while you dial their number in hopes that you can get a seat.  

Next week is just full of unique events.

Big West Wrestling presents Bowl A Rama 3 next Friday, June 16.

With the champion, Shreddz, on vacation after vanquishing five challengers in less than 72 hours at Rutland May Days, a new No. 1 contender needs to be crowned.

So, two former champions, a living legend, and an up-and-coming rookie will battle that night in hopes of becoming the contender to battle the champ in July for the television title.

You can come and bowl with the wrestlers or just come watch the wresting. OHHHH, YEAH!
 

$750 billion will be transferred from Canadian parents to their kids in the next decade, so my video blog gives you options if you're worried your kids might not do well with their new money.  

Make it a great week!
