The rain miraculously stayed away today and skaters, neighbours, bikers, babies, dogs and grandmas showed up and partied down at China Creek this afternoon. Parks Board politicians Spencer Herbert, Al De Genova, Loretta Woodcock and Korina Houghton also came by and checked out the action.

Thanks to everyone that helped out, showed up, or sent good vibes. Keep those positive letters and emails flowing to the Parks Board though — the rainless sky today was a good omen, but the battle for China Creek is not yet won. Email the commissioners at: pbcomments@vancouver.ca

Leeside this SUNDAY the 19th - 2- 6 pm --------4pm video plays
so come and watch the great NEW toy machine video .....PRODUCT TOSS FOR BOARDS....see some BANDS....eat some bbq-byobbq if yah want ......drink some hot cocoa...
skate something in a tunnel away from the rain

LETS SHOW THIS CITY HOW BADLY WE NEED AN INDOOR SKATEBOARD PARK ....or LEESIDE!!!!!!

It’s coming up to a busy weekend for the Vancouver Skateboard Coalition and our supporters… China Creek Appreciation Day on Saturday and another event at Leeside on Sunday. A collaboration between the Coalition and the Leeside Stewardship Group, “November Rain” is going to be a reminder of how cool Leeside will be when it finally gets finished.

November Rain is going to run from 2-6pm on Sunday, November 19th. There’ll be live music starting at 2:00 courtesy of local bands, including Jaws, Joel, and the funnest and most fun-loving band in the city, The Doers.

Skating? Of course, that’s what it’s all about. Bring your tight tranny skills to the barrier jamboree. A strong showing may even tempt Deer Man of Dark Woods or Depth Leviathan Dweller to rise from the shadows.

And when the sun goes down, get cozy and brace yourselves for a screening of Toy Machine’s new video, Suffer the Joy , which has been sending audiences into a frenzy.

Leeside is under the Cassiar connector at Hastings and Hwy 1. From Renfrew St., go east on Pender to the dead end and turn left.
