Cheers to Eileen Meehan from Naramata, BC. Naramata is an unincorporated community in the Okanagan region of south central British Columbia, Canada. On the eastern shore of southern Okanagan Lake.
Eileen owns and operates Sun n' Sup, a paddleboard shop in an old gas station in the beautiful village of Naramata. She’s recently opened the doors in time for her fifteenth season. Eileen says, "My husband Pete and I bought a couple of paddleboards, figuring we could rent them out easily enough. My friend owned the old gas station, so I phoned him up and said, hey you wouldn't want to rent that old gas station out during the sumertime, would you? He liked the idea, and so we got started. That was in April, and I was managing a beach shop in Pentiction at the time. We opened the doors in May, and by the end of themonth, I'd quit my job and havn't looked back."
Here's what Eileen says about Session Magazine. "I love seeing the incredible destinations. As well as learning about new equipment, new sports and stories about the athletes. When you are out on the water there is such an incredible feeling of experiencing all that nature has to offer and I can't get enough of it. Session Mag helps when I can't always be outside!!"
Thanks for the kind words and support Eileen and good luck at Sun n' Sup! - The Session Team
