For those unfamiliar with pump tracks “a pump track is a one-to-three-metre-wide track that can be used for bicycle, skateboard, in-line skates and scooter riders to practice skills on a series of features, such as berms and rollers placed in quick succession,” detailed their report to Council in April. “I just think it’s a really great amenity we can bring to Yorkton at a fairly reasonable price,” said Zaharia this Monday. Zaharia made a motion to have City Administration look into potential locations and the potential scope of a track project. The original presentation identified three potential locales; Heritage Heights Park, near the Gloria Hayden Recreation Centre, and Weinmaster Park, but Administration was instructed to look at other potential sites too.

Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan play out an intense romance in Francis Lee s bleak new arthouse effort that weaves fiction and speculation into a fabric of facts.
Lee s script is based in England of the 1800s and narrates the story of Mary Anning (Winslet), a fossil collector and palaeontologist who gained fame for her fossil findings along the English Channel. Lee borrows from an unsubstantiated slice of Mary s life to set up his narrative.
As the film begins, Mary is struggling to make ends meet. She has seen better days professionally, and when a wealthy geologist approaches Mary to entrust her with the job of looking after his ailing wife Charlotte (Ronan) while he is away on tour, she cannot afford to say no.

The project will feature gabion walls with City of Yorkton signage and lighting on the South West and South East corners to welcome inbound traffic. The project will also include pathways, concrete planters, native grass planting, berms and landscaping. “During the winter months we have been looking at the designs for this project in conjunction with Parks, Engineering and the consultants at Scatliff Miller Murray (SMM). As we dove deeper into detailed design, we realized that in-order for us to build close to the conceptual drawings that were presented to Council in June 2020, we needed to either refocus our funds on two sides of the intersection or come back to Council for further direction,” no

Ninjago animated shorts that would celebrate the franchise’s 10th anniversary this year.
The first of those shorts has finally arrived. Dubbed
Golden Legend, it runs about three-and-a-half minutes in length and tells an ancient yet visionary story both seemingly familiar yet ultimately unknown to
Ninjago fans.
