Special Olympics BC Summer Games: The 2025 Special Olympics BC Summer Games in Prince George is officially over.

After two days of competition, the 2025 Special Olympics BC Summer Games have come to a close.  The games brought around 900 athletes to the Prince George area to compete in ten different sports on Friday and Saturday.  "With any large, large tournament like this, you're always running with your hair straight back just to get everything ready, and we certainly managed to put everything together," said Co-Chair of the Organizing Committee Lyn Hall. 

An American doctor making a journey between two countries is finding friends along the way.  Dr. Craig Davis set out from Prince George in June, riding his bike to Juneau, Alaska on his Riding for Peace campaign.  His goal is to spread a message of peace, and to ask "how can we do better." 

Prince George City Council will consider replacing a garbage truck at tomorrow's (Monday) meeting. According to a staff report, one of the City's garbage trucks was in a serious motor vehicle accident on Foothills Boulevard on May 13, 2024, resulting in the unit being written off by ICBC.
