Rise Up, George Blimpton, Rise Up!

 

For two full weekends in July and August, Gibsons had the distinction of having its first ever blimp uprisings. As part of the crew, I had a great time doing exactly what I wanted to be doing—getting information out to the community, having fun with my friends. Plus I had a totally amazing view of the fireworks!

Citizens Rally to support the OCP and get answers

A couple of hundred people rallied at the Gibsons waterfront on Saturday to show their support for those asking questions about the proposed George hotel development and to demand their democratic right to be heard on this potentially massive project that threatens what they love about their town.
