Turkey shoot
It’s time to celebrate the greening weather with a big bang – the report of a shotgun. And if you want somewhere to aim that buckshot, the Quesnel Rod and Gun club has targets they’re aiming at putting holes in, with the pay off coming in turkeys.
It’s the first Tturkey shoot of the season, next Saturday and everyone’s invited to grab their favourite gun and give’r a go.
It all begins 9 a.m. on Saturday, with a cost of $5 per event.
Derby
If the great outdoors isn’t your thing, try staying indoors and watching a roller derby extravaganza as derby girls from all over the province come to Quesnel for the Rainbow Rampage. Tickets cost $10 each, with kids 10 and under sneaking in under the radar for free. Doors open at 6 p.m., first whistle at 7 p.m. There will be a beer garden for the 19+ crowd.
Tickets are available at Ready 2 Run or any of the derby girls.
Skating
The Quesnel FSC will wow crowds with a full show of Movie, Magic and Music with a whole lot of graceful skating. The club will host two shows at the Twin Arenas, first at 1 p.m. and the final at 6 p.m. on April 27.
Tickets are available at the door or at the Hi Chic cutting lounge or at the door.
Cutting
If none of the above strike your fancy, never fear, because this weekend is a busy one indeed, and there remains another option: the cutting horse competition. The event runs both Saturday and Sunday, with the action starting at 9 a.m. both days.
