Nelson-Creston MLA Michelle Mungall got married Saturday.

She and Zak Matieschyn tied the knot in Kokanee Creek Provincial Park.

“We served up a 100-mile wedding feast with as much regional food and drink as we could find,” she says. “The meal was delicious and was a memorable contribution to our wonderful day.”

Meanwhile, Kootenay West MLA Katrine Conroy has been acclaimed as the NDP candidate in the next provincial election.

Conroy was elected in 2005 and reelected in 2009, both by large margins.

Party leader Adrian Dix attended the nomination meeting this month.

Constituency association president Duff Sutherland said their executive was “ecstatic” Conroy was willing to run again in a possible fall election.
