Radio listeners in Chilliwack and Abbotsford who normally tune into SONiC may have thought they'd bumped the dial Thursday morning. On June 19, the station abruptly changed format, broadcasting as KISS Throwbacks, with Rick Campanelli as the morning host. They will now be playing "all the hits of the '90s and 2000s," according to a SONiC Radio Instagram post. The station broadcasts on 107.5 FM in Chilliwack, 92.5 FM in Abbotsford, and 104.9 FM in Vancouver.

Up to 500 classic vehicles of all shapes and will file into the 20th-annual Village Classic Car Show in Chillwack this weekend. And when they do, the showstopper will likely be one that has never rolled off an assembly line. Chilliwack resident Kevin Mindel will be bringing his one-of-a-kind, 1968 Mercury Cougar Fastback GT-P — nicknamed "Predator." Ford never made a Fastback Cougar, so creating one has led to a vehicle with more than a million dollars worth of work.
