It will be a chance to bridge new connections within our community over a series of events. 

The Humboldt Regional Newcomer Centre will be holding their Welcome Week, beginning tonight and will have a series of events planned over the next week.  

The Humboldt Broncos have a lot of work left in front of them this preseason, even with only two games remaining.  

Last weekend, the Broncos got off to a solid start picking up a pair of convincing wins over the Kindersley Klippers.  

Head Coach Brayden Klimosko noted the Klippers had a younger lineup than the Broncos but was still pleased with his team’s effort in both games. 

A fun and interactive way to stay active.  

Residents over the age of 50 in Humboldt have that opportunity multiple times a week at the Community Gathering Place with the Forever In Motion program.
