Congratulations to all the members of my curling team who won the Silver Medal in the 2015 BC Finals!

…my Curling Team called “Team Tully” won the right to represent the Vancouver Curling Club in the Lower Mainland playdowns against 19 other Club winners. The top 3 moved on to the B.C. playdowns where there were 8 Teams from throughout B.C. who won their zones. Our Team won the Silver Medal in the B.C. Finals & it came down to the last shot in the 8th end & the Team from  Chilliwack beat us (Sunday April 19th) to move on to the Canadian Finals in Ottawa…it was the best VCC (our Club) has done in the Men’s Club Playdowns.
From left to right…

Nicolaus Kuit – Second

…Bill Sample, who has been my Music Director for many years at the World Kindness Concert, spent the last 2 years writing the music for the most moving & amazing ‘musical’ – “The Raymur Mothers” – it was featured in the newspaper & is about the ‘mothers’ in the DTES who sat on the railway tracks in 1970 until they built an overpass over the tracks so the children could get to school safely. It is on every night at 8pm until Nov. 9th (matinee on the 9th at 2pm as well) at the Russian Hall in the DTES at 600 Campbell Street – Box office (604)708-5448 or www.theatreintheraw.ca – it is FANTASTIC & the talent is incredible!:-) – let Bill know i ‘gently nudged’ you to go…he’s on keyboards!

Hit n’ Strum – you should see it!

…i went to the most amazing Movie the other night that was done locally in the Downtown Eastside (DTES) – ‘Hit n’ Strum‘ – it was inspired by Andre Girard, the street person/performer i had at the World Kindness Concert a few years ago that ‘moved’ the audience to tears and a huge standing ovation. The lead actor (singer/songwriter)/producer/director, Kirk Caouette, has agreed to come to Fifth Avenue Cinema next Tuesday, March 26th, and do a Q&A after the 4:45pm Show and the 7:10 Show…we can seat 300 so get there early as it’s been held over a week – it is THAT good!:-) – i will be introducing Kirk and sharing the amazing synchronicity with Kirk’s story, Andre, and Sharon Small (street person/performer) that has performed the last 2 years and touched soooooo many of us!

Important Update:

.. Kirk, the Director & lead actor in “Hit & Strum”, and i want to apologize as we can’t have a Q&A after the Movie on Tuesday night at the Fifth Avenue Cinema on Burrard. The Manager needs more notice and the Movie was held over until next week only! Also, there is just ONE Showing that night at 7:20pm (NOT a 4:45pm showing) – there are others during that day and through the week…i will be at the 7:20pm Show & i hope i see you there!

Again, my apologies! It is such a great film and very important and is filmed in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver (DTES).

i was interviewed for a great new article in the November 2012 issue of The New Agora. See page 18 of that issue for the article.

The article was written by an old friend of mine, Glennis Taylor. It was great to talk with an old high school friend again… we all need wonderful friends like you, Glennis… and thanks for all the help with math in high school!  We can all benefit from the kindness of one person helping another person. Your kindness was inspirational, you are fabulous 🙂
