Ladysmith’s amphitheatre was designed around holding these events and it’s had the opportunity to stage these events many times. Built through the generosity of local businesses, organizations and individuals the theatre still requires the generosity of donations to continue the traditional logging show. Last week the local Western Forest Products (WFP) mill… donated the three very large logs that are used as the ‘dummy logs’ that many of the events are staged around. “The obstacle race and the various saw events centre around these logs, and the ones we have now are 12 years old and are getting pulpy so the folks from Western Forest Products stepped up and found three new ones. They made it possible for the show to go on.” …Glen Waatainen from SDN Contracting/Pro-Cut Lumber Corp lined up the loading and transportation and supplied the boom truck driven by Ken Nicholson.
