Events in Nanaimo this week

Issue #86 - May 22, 2007

A short week doesn't mean less things to do... Last Thursday, Dave and I were tromping through the woods with the puppies as we always do, when we cam across a lovely golden shoe. I grabbed the shoe thinking a poor mountain biker was somewhere in the forest was missing it, only to read the attached note, asking that it be left right where it was and to take a code to Ravensong or Oceanside Centre's. Being the kind of person who likes a challenge, I took one and came home and did a quick internet search to find that the Regional District of Nanaimo has been running a fun scavenger hunt for the past few weeks! Needless to say, Dave and I knew what we had to do. Did you know we have Suspension Bridge in Nanaimo?! If you have the time and love exploring new parks, I highly recommend playing the Hunt for the Golden Shoe.

With Summer well on it's way, more and more of our events are happening outdoors. This week we have a real selection of events for everyone from Sporty to the Artsy.

See you there
