S4C is MOVING TO THE GARRICK/EDGE SKATEPARK!!!

Due to unforseen circumstances IE: The forecasted torrential downpour/thunderstorm & the fact that due to uncertainty of the weather we couldn't guarantee a sunny day tomorrow, the company supplying our sound system for the Skatepark had to pull out of the event. SO...

SATURDAY'S SKATE4CANCER EVENT IS BEING MOVED INDOORS. The music portion will take place at the GARRICK THEATRE (330 Garry)and the Skateboard contest will take place at THE EDGE SKATEPARK (125 Pacific Avenue).

The bands will start at noon and run till about 8:30/9pm.

The Skate Contest will start at 2pm and go for a few hours.

NOw I know this is not ideal, but we figured this was better than canceling and we're still hoping everyone comes out to have a great time and support Skate4Cancer.

PLEASE PASS THE WORD ON as this is super last minute, we need to get the owrd of mouth as far as we can as fast as we can! thanks
