A B.C. charity is encouraging Kelowna residents to step out of their comfort zone for a good cause.
The Easter Seals have been putting on annual Drop Zone Events in Vancouver since 2005, and they have since expanded to hold events in Surrey, Burnaby and now Kelowna.
On Sept. 21, 50 brave Kelowna residents will rappel down the Landmark 6 tower while dressed as superheroes to support children and adults living with disabilities for their inaugural Drop Zone fundraiser.
The money raised will go to support the Easter Seals Camp Winfield. This camp has been located in Lake country for 50 years and provides a safe and accessible environment for children, youth and adults up to age 49 to learn outdoor skills and have fun.
Registration is open to both individuals and organizations, and the event runs from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
