SunRype signs deal with Okanagan International Marathon 06/2018 Barb Broder, SunRype Communications Manager, says the new partnership is well aligned with SunRype's mission, "Our goal is to help people live healthier lives, and the SunRype Okanagan Marathon is a great example of how we can bring that vision to life, right in our own backyard." SunRype has deep roots in the Okanagan Valley, and was established in Kelowna in 1946. Broder adds, "It's fitting that we are now partnering with a community event that shares our values, and becoming a bigger part of this longstanding local event is really exciting."
