SUMMARY:Seaside Magazines Charity Road Hockey Tournament
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for June 7 and join us at Iroquois Park in Sidney for an action-packed day in support of Help Fill A Dream. \n9th Annual Seaside Magazine Charity Road Hockey Tournament is a one-day fundraising which brings together our Dream kids (children with life-threatening / critical conditions) and their families with the local community to participate in the quintessential Canadian pass time – road hockey. Highlights of the day include: both an adult and kids’ tournament and the ever popular TD Family Fun Zone featuring interactive displays from community partners\, entertainment\, inflatables\, a “by donation” BBQ and more. The TD Family Fun zone creates a fun family festival atmosphere for all ages . \nThe playing surfaces are smaller so the action will be fast and furious. With the smaller space\, there will be constant action as you zigzag back and forth\, trying to get past your opponents to score. You’ll need to be nimble and quick to make the perfect shot. (Teams will play a minimum of 3 games.) \nFor more information check out: https://www.helpfilladream.com/event/seaside-charity-road-hockey-tournament-2025/

SUMMARY:Get Back Unplugged Performance
DESCRIPTION:Seaside Music Festival Presents: Get Back – Unplugged… the Beatles Reimagined\nFriday\, May 23\nDoors open @ 7:00pm\, Show @ 7:30pm \nGet Back Unplugged\, The Beatles Reimagined aims to revisit some of the best loved songs of late-period Beatles\, and to deliver them with the joy and spontaneity of friends singing around a kitchen table. \nBringing together six stellar singers and players who\, between them\, span the worlds of folk\, Celtic\, blues\, jazz\, and classical music\, this intimate and engaging performance does not try to imitate the Fab Four\, but rather seeks to present renditions that are authentic to the musicians’ own unique voices. A fiddle can give a dazzling guitar solo? An accordion can be a menacing bulldog? With renditions ranging from Nova Scotia folk music vibes to classic Tina Turner\, audiences marvel at this group’s incredible interpretations! \n‘Get Back Unplugged’ started as an idea of Vancouver-based folk-pop trio The Wahs\, after seeing the recent Peter Jackson-produced documentary about the famous Get Back recording sessions and the celebrated Beatles rooftop concert. \nFeaturing The Wahs:\nCameron Wilson\, Violin\, vocals\nAndrew Hillhouse\, Vocals\, guitar\nBrent Gubbels\, Bass

SUMMARY:Art With Attitude Artshow
DESCRIPTION:Show Times: 10am – 5pm\, daily \nExhibition Details: This show is two collections of C F Parker’s recent art. Decades of making art stand behind the creation of these two collections. One is a series of watercolour & ink work\, and a few copperplate etchings\, based on hundreds of hours spent in the forest and beaches of the BC West Coast. They are expressive representational art\, founded on a deep love of vibrant coast.\nThe second collection is larger pieces\, mostly acrylic on canvas\, exploring the energies and patterns and connections of the coastal forest. Often the ordinary is presented from a new perspective. This work is full of colour\, energy and depth. It is a joy to be able to share these images with the public.\nA wide selection of my work as 5″ x 7″ greeting cards will also be available. \nParticipants: Corinne Parker
