Photo submitted. The community, in spite of the ongoing pandemic, is trying to experience some sense of normal this Christmas. Please adhere to government and Saskatchewan Health Authority pandemic protocols so we aren’t busting the charts continuously, or again, on case numbers. Do what you can, when you can and where you can.
Thank you to everyone who made contributions either at the “Fill the Truck” initiative at Unity Motor Products or other collection depots around town. These efforts will go a long way to help make this Christmas a littler merrier for those who need a hand up this year. We also must thank the Secret Santa committee and food bank volunteers, as their efforts are appreciated this time of year. The Community Cares Christmas mail campaign has been enthusiastically received. Thank you to everyone who took time to drop off ornaments, mail, treats and other items, as well as to those who sent letters and cards in the mail. I have heard back from several seniors’ centres asking to pass along thanks to those who chose to act on this request and to relate how many smiles this campaign has evoked.
