VOILA!
Skate Parks First Draft Unveiled Ten years in the making. We now have a design. There is one advantage to having waited ten years to get our outdoor skatepark: the evolution of skatepark design has come a long way and soon we will enjoy the benefits of a world class outdoor facility. On Tuesday, October 18, New Line Skateparks unveiled the first draft of Nelson’s skatepark. It is a fully functional, beautiful work of art that will enrich the community. But get ready folks, we are going to need some help fundraising. A park like this comes with a hefty price tag but if Slocan can do it - so can we.

Homing in on Nelson Almost every second person who visits Nelson wants to make it their home. Students, young families, early and not-quite retirees, artists, musicians, writers … from all walks of life – I meet them all in my day job at a hostel. They are smitten, charmed and totally in awe of what we have here. Who can blame them? We have mountains and lakes. We have rural and urban. We have a rush hour that consists of a one-light wait at Vernon and Ward. We have people who smile when they pass you on the street and by-law enforcement officers we know on a first name basis. We have concord grapes, pears, apples, plums and cherries growing along our boulevards. We have powder snow, Kokanee salmon, Oso coffee and

NBC beer. We have a rail trail that stretches as far as anyone would ever want to go, a view from Pulpit Rock to write home about, a ‘clothing optional’ beach and a glacier practically in our backyard. I wake up every morning and look out my window at Elephant Mountain and I smile. Yum: Fabulous food to check out in Nelson and area. Crab cakes… I really like crab cakes! Outer Clove on Kootenay Street is a good crab cake hook-up. I’ve seen them on the menu at Full Circle Café, too, but I’m usually loading up on Eggs Benedict when I’m there. Besides, crab cakes strike me as a dinner appetizer. I am, however, willing to reconsider that. ~Paula Hudson-Lunn

John Reichman Friday, October 21, 8:00 p.m. Capitol Theatre 421 Victoria Street, Nelson John Reishman has been a mandolin god for decades, first getting noticed playing in the San Francisco scene in the 70s. He then joined the much revered Tony Rice Unit in 1980; on board for three albums of bluegrass gypsy jazz, he left to join the Bay Area’s Good Ol’ Persons band, and toured and recorded for years. Relocating to Vancouver in the early 90s, he started the Jaybirds, driven to explore different angles of bluegrass and acoustic music, and has never slowed or looked back.
Juno and Grammy nominated work, major festival appearances, mandolin teaching workshops, and a blazing-fast set of fingers have solidified his reputation around the world and the rest of his band, while lesser known, are monsters themselves on their respective instruments. I saw their last show at The Capitol, and while I don’t profess to be a huge bluegrass fan, their sheer musicianship won me over within three songs. ~Nelson From Nelson
