New edition comes out today

Jam-packed Quesnel Cariboo Observer is on the streets

Today is the day… All week long we work to bring together a package of news, culture and sports specifically about Quesnel and our Cariboo surroundings. Every Wednesday, it all comes out to the readers. I really hope you get a lot out of these pages of information and entertainment created by Quesnel for the people of Quesnel.

This edition has some tragedy and hardship, some triumph and aspirations, and all of it a reflection of ourselves. There’s a preview of Billy Barker Days, a look at fixing our bad water, some features on athletes and artists, a visit with Rick Hansen as he goes back to his old high school, and a feature interview with the one, the only, the biggest stage star Quesnel has ever produced…standup comedian Tom Stade!

Please pick up a copy of The Quesnel Cariboo Observer wherever your nearest newsstand may be, or contact the office about subscribing, so it comes right too you. Email: circulation@quesnelobserver.com or click this link and select the Subscription/Circulation email.

Cheers, everyone!
