I scream, you scream, we all scream for . . . Okay, it’s not ice cream exactly, but according to hundreds of teenage girls, it was definitely worth screaming about.

Last week, Pinkberry frozen yogurt opened its first store in Canada in West Vancouver at The Village at Park Royal Shopping Centre.

The hip West Hollywood treat, popular with movie stars like Lindsay Lohan, also caused a big stir by bringing along local actor and Glee TV heartthrob Cory Monteith.

Monteith and his band, Bonnie Dune, played two sets and signed autographs to the squealing delight of starstruck teens.

Also last week, the North Vancouver Chamber held its Summer Soiree evening at Seymour Golf and Country Club.

It was a chance to welcome new members, celebrate milestones and introduce new board members for the upcoming year.
