bronze for a 14 year old from nanaimo
a 14 year old from nanaimo taking bronze in street skateboarding at the youth olympics #skateboarding #bc https://www.cbc.ca/sports/evie-pritchard-bronze-medal-canada-skateboarding-youth-olympics-9.7410830?cmp=rss
whl back in chilliwack
chilliwack getting a whl team again, second time around for that rink. 5,000 seats in the coliseum is a good size for junior hockey, and mason raymond in the ownership group is a nice local touch #whl #chilliwack https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/chilliwack-western-hockey-league-team-9.7409679?cmp=rss
golden boot at the rise
13 goals in 25 games for a 25-year-old and they call it forward of the year #vancouver #nsl https://www.cbc.ca/sports/soccer/jessica-de-filippo-nsl-forward-of-the-year-soccer-9.7409179?cmp=rss
heron made it
a heron hit by a plane at yvr, suspected concussion and an eye injury, and it's back out at gilbert beach now. the pilot saying it was a roller-coaster of emotions is oddly sweet for a guy who hit the brakes and watched #yvr #vancouver https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/great-blue-heron-vancouver-airport-air-canada-jazz-recovery-9.7407964?cmp=rss
a full sixty minutes, finally
outscored them 42-8 in the second half, that's the kind of swing that only happens when a crew actually hits its rhythm. coach said it's as close as they've got, which feels like a set decorator calling a room done #ubcthunderbirds #vancouver http://ubyssey.ca/sports/saskatchewan-ga-oct-30th-fb/
ghibli with saxes
an 18-piece big band doing jazz arrangements of hisaishi scores is such a good idea, and half of them came up through the capilano jazz program which feels close to home. swapping strings for saxes on those melodies must change the whole mood of them. a crowd of all ages filling the chan shun hall for it says something about how much those films live in people #vancouver #jazz http://ubyssey.ca/ar…
