There are a few options, but as Paul alludes to it depends where you are and how far you wish to travel.
There are the following:
1) Oceola in Lake Country
2) Kelowna and District Fish & Game Club
3) Vernon Fish & Game Clun
4) Armstrong & District Fish & Game Association
5) North Okanagan Trap & Skeet Club
6) Salmon Arm Fish & Game

8) Joe Rich Sportsman Association - outskirts of Kelowna
9) Penticton Shooting Sports Association
FWIW I'm a member of Oceola, Vernon and Armstrong, each club for what it offers me as a shooter.

South Okanagan Sportsmen Association - Just outside of of Oliver BC. Great Range/club.
Kelowna F&G is closest to you then. Nice facility but $$ compared to others. Joe Rich is also $$

KDFGC has many more amenities than the JRSA, but they have a lot of fudds that make the rules there, resulting in some stupid rules. KDFGC is also having issues with their neighbors complaining about the sound after they moved next to the range (lol), so unfortunately the range's time left may be limited.
JRSA is out of town quite a ways (about 15 minutes out of black mountain) towards Big White. The rules are a lot more lenient than KDFGC, but amenities are almost non-existant for a membership that's priced similarly to KDFGC.
Due to Kelowna's bylaws, all ranges current and future need to be outside city limits, so you're going to be driving a bit either way.
It's good you mentioned you're in WK, though. If you go past the Peachland dump, a few hundred meters on the left, there is crown land people use for sighting in, shooting clays, etc. It's pretty easy to spot, as it looks like more of a dump than the actual dump you just passed.
