CHLY radio summer camp teaches kids media skills – The Discourse.
Kids make radio shows and podcasts at ‘super fun’ summer camp at Nanaimo’s community radio station.
And with that, @chly.ca's Summer Radio Camp for Youths has come to a close. 2025 was the largest camp yet we've run! New this year was a section on media literacy, fact checking, checking and using reliable sources.
@micksweetman.bsky.social reported on the camp.

Last night, I had a cool encounter at Moorecroft Park! It all started with a single owl hooting at me just off the trail. When I came back the same way after my walk, it was joined by a second owl. This owl seemed curious about me and flew over for a closer look.

Sitting on top of a garden covered in vines, little fairy houses made of flowers and plants including a tiny dance floor with flower petals and a disco ball
On a bed of moss on a stump in the garden, a tiny fair house creation made of plants and flowers with a little purple door
A stump on some grass in the sunshine with white shells and purple pine cones circling its base. On top of the stump, some moss and flowers, and a fairy house made of sticks and pine cones
In the garden, flower petals are arranged in a circle and around a mini archway with a sign “Dance Tonight” ready for a little fairy party
It’s Fairy House weekend at Milner Gardens in Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island! 🧚🏻♂️ I’ve been twice over the years and it’s magical!

There's a govt salmon hatchery on the Big Qualicum River that had a pellet vending machine where you could buy a handful of pellets to throw at a pool of gorgeous big rainbow trout. No fishing allowed in that pool, obviously 😹
i haven't been in a while, dunno if the pellet machine's still there

As a realist painter, my motivation is to share my visual experiences. Through my artwork, I try to bring the outside in, to pay tribute to the natural world, and remind us how rewarding it can be to take the time to reconnect with nature.
