Dallas Smith with special guests Michael Ray and Lauren Alaina
2017-11-17 19:00
Platinum selling country star and 604 Records recording artist, Dallas Smith, is pleased to announce the 2017 “Side Effects Tour”, presented by Old Camp Whiskey will be stopping at the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton on Friday, November 17th. The national tour will be kicking off in Halifax on October 12th and will make stops in 26 cities across the country before wrapping in Abbotsford on November 18th. Special guests, Lauren Alaina and Michael Ray, will join Smith in Penticton this upcoming November. The “Side Effects Tour” announcement comes on the heels of Smith’s fourth #1 single at Canadian country radio with “Sky Stays This Blue”, a first for a Canadian male country artist.
Appealing to audiences far beyond the boundaries with sonic layers and a stadium sized voice, Smith not only celebrates his fourth #1 single at Country radio in Canada, but becomes the first Canadian artist in both the Nielsen BDS and Mediabase era to have three consecutive #1 singles and the first Canadian country artist to have three #1 singles from the same album (Side Effects).
Smith’s top-selling album “Side Effects” – released one year ago and produced by studio ace and long-time collaborator Joey Moi (Florida Georgia Line) – features 12 tracks, including the albums first #1 single “Autograph” (the only #1 track from a Canadian Country artist in 2016) and the #1 hit “Side Effects”. The album showcases Smith’s incredible artistry and confirms he’s in his own lane – earning critical acclaim, commercial success and one of the most talked about journeys in Canadian country music.
Currently nominated for four Canadian Country Music Association Awards including Male Artist of the Year, Single of the Year, Album of the Year and the Apple Music Fans’ Choice Award, Smith will take the stage for what will surely be another memorable performance when the CCMA Awards show hits Saskatoon on September 10th.

Western Canada Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Championships
2017-06-10 09:00
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), also known as ‘The Gentle Art’, is a martial art, combat sport and self-defense art, which primarily focuses on grappling and submission. This sport became prominent in the early 1990s when Royce Gracie brought BJJ to the Ultimate Fighter Championships, or more well known today as UFC. BJJ is a sport that is successfully practiced by men, women, and children of different ages, shapes, sizes and physical abilities. It truly is a sport for everyone. Children practicing Jiu-Jitsu are rewarded with a sense of confidence, athleticism and focus, while building knowledge of self-defense, which helps in the bully proofing of our youth.
Not only is BJJ a physical challenge, it is also a mental challenge. The physical demands are a combination of cardiovascular endurance, speed, strength training and developing a strong grip to maintain positioning in a match. A small error during a match can drastically affect the outcome of matches. Many athletes declare that the mental preparation is the most challenging obstacle, whether it is their first tournament as a White Belt, or an established World Champion Black Belt. It takes a lot of heart and courage to take the lessons from everyday training and apply them in a tournament setting, with hundreds of people watching. The reward of overcoming both the mental and physical obstacles are second to none.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Canada is a fast growing sport, that embraces the notion of a close knit community where promoters, school owners, competitors, supporters and sponsors can all come together to unite for the love of the sport. The CBJJF is dedicated 100% to growing this sport in a safe and respectable manner where everyone is welcome to compete.
Doors to the Western Canadian Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Championships at the SOEC open at 8:00AM with matches scheduled throughout the day from 9:00AM until 6:00PM. Tickets are ONLY available at the door and are $10.00 for adults. Youth (13 to 17) are $5.00. Children (12 and under) and seniors are FREE. Parents of the child and youth competitors are free and must check in with them at the athlete entrance. To register as an athlete visit: CBJFF Western Canadian Championships.
