    It’s a new baseball season, and it’s a new start in another way for the Nanaimo NightOwls. The city’s West Coast League baseball team begins the season this Friday, May 30, with a new head coach – Nanaimo’s own Cody Andreychuk. Andreychuk played at Serauxmen Stadium with the Nanaimo Pirates and the VIU Mariners, and has since gained more than a decade of coaching experience in the U.S., the past four years as head coach at the University of Pikeville in Kentucky.

    The Nanaimo's sign's rainbow-coloured 'O' will be re-imagined with different artwork. The popular tourist photo-op attraction at Sway' A' Lana Lagoon at Maffeo Sutton Park won't sport its 15 bands of colour for much longer, as city council, at a meeting Monday, May 26, voted to commission a new design for the 'O' and look into an annual public call for artists to re-design the letter. The sign was vandalized last month and city staff reported only "moderate success" removing the vandalism.

    The Nanaimo Timbermen showed in their season opener that they'll be capable of playing top-notch lacrosse this summer. The senior A T-men started the Western Lacrosse Association regular season with a 12-9 loss to the New Westminster Salmonbellies on Thursday, May 22, but did have a lead in the third period on the road against one of the WLA's favourites.

    Nanaimo was already home to the world's best Nanaimo bars – now the community can claim the world's biggest Nanaimo bar, too. A team from Vancouver Island University established a new world record on Saturday, May 17, constructing a 1,100-pound (500 kilogram), 70-foot (21-metre) Nanaimo bar. The bar was made inside the Windsor Plywood Trades Discovery Centre and was cut up and served right away to community members lined up in the rain.
