Two great guests are joining us this weekend!

Plus, we’re rewinding to this week in 2020 with a #1 hit from Tyler Joe Miller.

Spruce Ridge School hosted a haunted house fundraiser earlier this week, drawing the community in for a night of chills and thrills while raising funds for its Grade 8 ski trip.

“It’s been an amazing experience,” said Haberstock, the school’s principal. “It’s a wonderful opportunity for our graduates to show leadership and have a lot of fun at the same time.”

Over 300 entries. About $1,000 raised for local charities. Five broadcasts. Six qualifiers. 

One winner. 

Earlier this morning, we gave away the ULTIMATE prize: a $3,000 trip to wherever they want to go! Congratulations to Bev Holinaty, as she gets to Jet Outta Town with a travel voucher from Denise Taylor at TravelOnly! She told us she was barely awake when we called her. 

"It was on my mind all night, thinking 'I wonder who's gonna win it' but I was going to be happy for whoever won it," she shared. 

A mature drivers refresher course is coming to Estevan to help give older drivers reminders of the rules of the road.

Put on by the Saskatchewan Safety Council, the free event will be held on November 6 at the Estevan Senior Centre from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Community Relations Coordinator Amanda Wood says the 6-hour course is just for teaching and doesn't affect people's licenses.

Estevan will welcome arm wrestlers from across Saskatchewan and Manitoba for the 15th edition of the Man-Sask Challenge, marking the first time this competition has been held in the city. Estevan Southern Impact, the local arm-wrestling club, will host the event at the Fired Up Grill on November 15 and 16.

Desiree Da Silva, one of the club’s founding members, is excited to bring the provincial rivalry home. "Last year in Brandon, it went really well," said Da Silva. "We had males and females compete, and Manitoba unfortunately got the gold medal... so we want to bring it home."
