Best of both worlds
What a Labour weekend it was for Nelson art and sport lovers. On Friday night the city hosted its biggest street party – the Masked Parade, followed by the carnival. Thousands turned out to take part or watch the annual spectacular, which is a part of the Nel-
son Arts Festival. But the parade was only the start, a jam-packed weekend of shows, as well as Art Expo Nelson, kept art-lovers more than satisfied. Then the sport. Our Tasman Makos beat Taranaki on Sunday to make the Mitre 10 Cup final against Canterbury this weekend,
the team’s second final in three years. Tasman United also kicked off its Stirling Sports national league football campaign with a fantastic 2-2 draw with Canterbury United. It’s certainly been a weekend to saviour and you can read all about it in today’s Nelson Weekly.
