WATCH: How this guy’s rent is covered for the month, courtesy of Kelowna10

Local man gets great news 40 feet in the air

Colin Hawkins is this month’s winner of the Kelowna10 app win your mortgage or rent contest.

He walks away with $2,500.

Hawkins, who works with Sawchuck Developments, was out in the field when he found out he’d won.

“I was up in a boom lift outside doing some work and I get this phone call and I’m like ‘hello?’ and the guy told me I won,” he said. “I was up with this other guy and we’re having a little celebration at the top of this lift 40 feet up in the air. It was pretty cool.”

He told Ryan from 103.1 Beach Radio that he’s a fan of Kelowna10 because of the slick layout and how every story is right out full in front of you.

The grand prize in the giveaway – which covers an entire year of mortgage or rent - will be awarded mid-April. So, keep entering on the Kelowna10 app to boost your chances.

It’s free to download and no purchase is necessary.

The contest is open to Canadian citizens who are legal residents of British Columbia, who make their present home in the area, have lived in BC for at least twelve continuous months, and must have reached the age of majority at time of entry.
