Gone are the need for multiple RVs and port a-potties; the air-conditioned backstage now includes two large dressing rooms, a gathering space, washrooms, and a storage room. “This is amazing,” said Harvest Festival backstage hospitality coordinator Eva Harder, who noted the space got a big thumbs up from performers when it was unveiled last summer. “Local musicians who had seen what we had before were thoroughly impressed. They couldn’t believe it. And other big names that we’ve had come in, they love it.” Above: Classic rock cover band Dark By Three relaxed in one of the dress- ing rooms prior to taking the stage.

In the meantime, though, he’s happy to carry on. “It feels normal to me to do that kind of a thing.

The Border Baseball League’s back- and-forth championship series was set to go all the way to game fi ve Tuesday night after Baldur battled their way back into the running on Monday. The Morden Mohawks and the Re- gals were tied at a game each head- ing into the pivotal game three Fri- day night in Morden, which went the home team’s way 2-0. That meant the Mohawks could have taken the title in game four on Baldur’s turf, but the Regals weren’t ready to roll over just yet. Baldur’s pitchers managed to strand 14 Morden base runners to ultimately edge the Mohawks 10-8, tying the series at two apiece and sending things back to Morden for the fi nal game Tuesday night. Results were not available at press time. This series has been a real clash of the titans, with Morden fi nishing the season in fi rst place and Baldur tak- ing third. The two teams split their two games against each other this summer. The rivals have faced off for the title no less than four previous times, in- cluding in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015. All of those times, though, Baldur went into things as the higher seed.
