SUMMARY:WIRTH Hats Quad Tandem World Championships
DESCRIPTION:On July 15-23\, 2023\, Vancouver-based brand WIRTH Hats will host the Quad Tandem World Championships. The one-of-a-kind adventure race\, which is the first of this scale for the company\, will draw teams from around the world to compete on quad tandem (four-person) bikes for a grand prize: The Quad Cup. \nThe Quad Tandem World Championships is the ultimate team race and a mental health fundraiser for the WIRTH Hats Counselling Fund. During this year’s event\, six teams will cycle over 800 kilometres\, from Keremeos to Nelson\, B.C.\, over the course of eight days. Participants include Team Great Britain\, Team USA\, Team Brazil\, Team New Zealand\, the Women’s Canadian Team\, and the Men’s Canadian Team. The race will be featured by Youtuber DownieLive and documented by Emmy award-winning cinematographer Adam Miller. \nWIRTH Hats was inspired by Jakob Wirth\, who had a vision of creating a hat company however sadly passed away by suicide in 2014 before he could achieve his dream. Jakob envisioned something recognizable; something stylish; something people would love to wear. For him\, hats weren’t just an accessory\, they were the perfect addition to an outfit and a central part of what could make someone feel unique. In 2018\, WIRTH Hats was founded by Ben Miller as a tribute to his dear friend Jakob and other loved and lost friends. \nA “hug for your head\,” each hat is made in Vancouver and serves as an everyday reminder that mental health is a priority and can affect anyone. To that end\, the company applies profits from hat sales and event hosting towards free online counselling for people in need. To date\, WIRTH Hats has sponsored over 6\,000 counselling sessions — and has set its sights on reaching 10\,000 sessions sponsored through the Quad Tandem World Championships.

SUMMARY:Tall Tales: The Quest Is Up To You!
DESCRIPTION:The Improv Centre (TIC) on Granville Island is pleased to announce its family-friendly summer show\, Tall Tales: The Quest Is Up To You!\, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm from June 30 to August 19\, with a special opening night on Thursday\, June 29 at 7:30pm and an additional Canada Day long weekend performance on Sunday\, July 2 at 7:30pm. \nTickets start at $26.50 and are available online at www.theimprovcentre.ca or in person at the TIC Box Office (1502 Duranleau Street). Tickets for opening night (June 29) will be priced at $15. \nJoin our hero on a fantastical journey where the audience is the author. Inspired by fantasy fan favourites like The Princess Bride\, Labyrinth and Lord of the Rings\, Tall Tales: The Quest Is Up To You! will whisk audiences off to a faraway land where laughs and larks abound. What happens along the way? It’s up to YOU! \nTIC ensemble member and creator of Tall Tales: The Quest Is Up To You!\, Mary Saunders\, says “There’s something very appealing about a classic story arc to me\, and fantasy tales are a really fun\, limitless way to explore that. I wanted the format to reflect some predictable and nostalgic elements of storytelling while still being unpredictable in nature as well as rich and diverse in content. It has been exciting figuring out how to create a form that can both reflect those fantasy storytelling elements while being fresh each time. I’m looking forward to our ensemble getting the time and space allowed by long form to explore character arcs more extensively and dive into the richness of the world we build based on unique suggestions from our audience.” \nFor more information on The Improv Centre\, please visit www.theimprovcentre.ca
