The Nelson chapter of KidSport has been around since 2007. In that time $110,000 sport registration fees have been paid.
The new skate park will see full action on June 21 with the Nelson & District Youth Centre hosting a fundraising hotdog sale and activities.
School’s out early this year and it has left mixed feelings in its wake.
On wheels, on foot or on water is today’s theme. Enjoying the outdoors in this region has never been so accessible. Bring on the summer!
The public feedback at the master plan meetings was also proof of how seriously we take our health, fun and fitness in this region.
Cyclists on the roads, kids on the fields and skateboarders in the new park are all enjoying the returned freedom spring seems to bring.
With spring in the air it’s not hard to imagine why we’re ready for love. That is, 15-love or 30-love and deuce etc.
The season is wrapping up for Nelson Nordic Ski Club and Whitewater Ski Racing Club
A sure sign of the winter/spring transition is the need to know if we should be suiting up with ski boots or gum boots.
Hopefully, that inspiration will motivate all of us to get out and be active in our own way.
The Nelson Nordic Ski Club is hosting its 12th Annual Valentine’s Night Ski on Friday, February 14 from 6 to 9 p.m.
There’s still plenty of local winter time fun to be had.Even though there’s been little new snow the ski conditions are still great.
The snow gods have been generous so far this season and the local hills and trails are consequently awesome!
Although not holidays for many, Christmas often provides people a chance to relax with family in some fun physical activities.
As snow happy folks are jumping for joy this week others are looking for the indoor kind of action to fend off the winter blues.
The Nelson event is being hosted at the NDCC on the concourse from 2 to 5 p.m. with multi-sport activities and promotions.
The second annual celebration of sport, from grassroots to high-performance levels, is in communities across the country on Nov. 30.
With Thanksgiving in mind, it is a good time to appreciate local volunteers who help our sporting community thrive
There’s a lot going on out there in the sport and rec community for the first week of fall.
The approaching fall and winter sports and recreation opportunities are as much loved by the locals as well.
