Working at the mountain is a lot of fun - you get to work where you play, and everyone you interact with is in a good mood because they’re playing outside. Ride breaks make the world go round.

Effective immediately, only watering by hand is permitted. The use of water for watering lawns and washing cars, driveways and roadways is prohibited.

Thanks for your cooperation, Revelstoke! In order to maintain our mandatory fire flows, these restrictions are currently necessary.

On Saturday, July 24 and Sunday, July 25, the Last Drop pub will be hosting a beach volleyball competition in the parking lot of the Powder Springs Inn at 200 3rd St. West. With sunny skies and skyrocketing temperatures expected, it’s going to be a fantastic weekend of fun in the sun!

The good folks at the Last Drop are brining in truckloads of sand to create this opportunity, to get on down today to register your team if you haven’t already done so. The tournament is open to teams of 2 for $25, and teams of 5 for $50. The tourney is taking place in a round robin style, so you will get to play all weekend!

Even more enticing? The parking lot will be licensed for the weekend, and it’s a great chance to get outside for ice cold beers on a hot summer weekend downtown.

I'm pretty sure these girls are playing in the tournament!

Prizes include beer swag, featuring main sponsor Bud Light Lime, as well as gift certificates to the Last Drop and other great prizes.

Want to enter? Drop your bike off at the Village Idiot before 2:00 on Saturday. Voting will take place at 2:00.

Starting around 3:00, all entrants are invited to a townie cruise around Revelstoke! Erik Stone of the Village Idiot is working up a route full of fun stops along the way.

The evening festivities take place starting at 8:00 with a rockin’ afterparty with live music on the patio by Angus Wilson. Bring your bike back, because the votes will be tallied and prizes will be handed out in a bunch of categories, including best vintage townie, most decorative, and shiniest. Spit shine that puppy! Prizes were generously donated by Skookum.

The Village Idiot will also be offering a pasta special for anyone entering their bike in the show, or anyone entering the Stoked to Get Spanked XC race on Sunday.

I’ve been whistling Colin’s “The Highway Song” all morning! Check him out on myspace.

Organized by RN Sally Kupp, the Hoe-Down for Haiti takes places on Friday, July 9 from 5 pm - midnight at Three Valley Gap, west of Revelstoke.

There will be door prizes, a contest for the best western costume, a cash bar, and a gambling wheel. Revelstoke Connection is providing shuttle service to and from Revelstoke with a minimum $2 donation, or if you’d like to stay the night, Three Valley Gap is providing rooms at 20% off.

You’ll learn to recognize Blueweed (Echium Vulgare) and Spotted Knapweed (Centaurea Maculosa), prolific and noxious weeds that choke out native plants, and impact native wildlife species such as western painted turtles, who can become entangled in the fibrous roots of spotted knapweed.

After the weed pull, the Columbia Shuswap Regional District will be providing a free lunch for all participants!

For more information on the Community Weed Pull, please contact organizer Mindy Skinner.
