The Okanagan Dream Rally returned for its sophomore year on Sunday morning, once again drawing a large crowd.

From luxury, muscle, super and all around bad ass cars of all makes and models to giant beaming smiles from the young ones, the event offers something for everyone.

Created in order to bring smiles to local children who are coping with disabilities, poor health or the loss of a loved one, the Okanagan Dream Rally really does make some dreams come true.

In 2016, the event raised $134,000 for the Central Okanagan Hospice Association, and this year the funds will be going to not just one charity but three; Autism Okanagan, KidSport, and the Central Okanagan Hospice Association.

Teams of three consisting of a child, their driver (which could even be a local celebrity) and a stunning super car, rev up their engines and embark on a day of fun.

From Kelowna the trios will travel to Penticton where they will enjoy lunch and a fun after party before heading back on the beautiful drive home, creating a pretty special day for all involved.
