Vaughn Royko

I write about local art, music events, news and charities happening in Medicine Hat, and when I actually get a chance/willpower to go to one -- I write about that too. Generally though, I write about whatever events are taking place in the city, or just random stuff (that’s what a blog is truly for after all).

Sean Potts

I write articles about whatever I have an interest in, whether it is music, art, or anything media-based in and around Medicine Hat. Sometimes they end up a little angsty; but hey, that is how I write. That is about all, Vaughn pretty much stole everything I would have said. That’s the last time I ask him to do something first…

Taylor Barton

I have been an avid reader of Medicine Hat Media since it started up and have come to really enjoy contributing. I use the combination of having different interests, living in a different city, and being younger than the rest of the group on MHM to provide a slightly different perspective on events in Southern Alberta. I hope to become a more regular contributor, providing the low-down on events close to home. Enjoy!

I have been in Medicine Hat and area my whole life and am a somewhat active artist in the community. I write about things that spark my interest or things that I would encourage people to take part in, which end up being mostly art or game related which I both thoroughly enjoy.

Dean

I have lived in Medicine Hat since age 18 and moved away only to attend UofL in 1991, completing 3 years of a BA in English Literature. I started in computers at the Glass Factory in Redcliff in the early 1980s and bought a Commodore-64 to learn more at home. Soon I picked up an 8088-based machine with MS-DOS 3-21 and added a 20MB HDD for $600. Now I am a die-hard Firefox fan that runs fine on my 6-year-old system. I really enjoy Medicine Hat Media, the variety of information posted and the responses generated.

Mike

Mike has become a regular contributor for Medicine Hat Media and he tends to catch everything important that we miss. He hasn’t written a bio for himself yet on this page, but we decided to mention his name here because of his ongoing efforts. He deals mostly with interesting local videos.

Scott Kunz

Scott will be updating community events in Medicine Hat and area as well as running cross-promotions with the two TV stations and all 5 radio stations in the city. Scott is by far our youngest community contributor, but is talented at writing and is highly knowledgeable.

The Ottoman Lounge

The Ottoman Lounge’s owner, Sean Davis is now a poster on Medicine Hat Media, which means you can now see a more steady stream of events happening at the Ottoman Lounge posted on the site. Thanks for the support, Sean Davis!
