Every Wednesday our friends at The Georgia Straight give us something new to share with you here on the blog: a preview of what you’ll see on the front of – and inside – their paper the next day. As you likely already know, they’re the source for lifestyle and entertainment stories in Vancouver. Along with their robust online presence they release a printed publication which is distributed all over Vancouver each Thursday.

Cover_2425_72dpiThis issue is the 2,425th and its theme this week is Summer in the City. Young Vancouverites rediscover the charm of a day at the races; plus, swimwear, skydiving, arts and film fests, tech and food events, and concerts. Articles include a "Summer City Guide" and "Summer Books" to stock your bookshelves. Below are some links to stories featured on the cover, which you can check out before you grab the physical paper:
