Hello CCPA-BC Members and Friends,

Just a quick update and clarification about this Sunday's fabulous
summer fundraising folk concert for the CCPA:  

Don't worry about the weather. Reports are that it may rain this weekend
(and certainly the province needs it), so we've moved the concert
inside. The location is unchanged (still Deer Lake Park) -- we've just
moved the concert into the Shadbolt Centre theatre from the outside
amphitheatre. So you can leave your blankets and backrests at home, and
come on down rain or shine.

Also, just to clarify, there will be tickets sold at the door (so long
as seats remain). We still encourage you to call ahead to pre-purchase
your tickets (604-205-3000), but if you're inclined towards last-minute
planning, you should still be able to get in.

Cheers,
Seth
