Winter is on its way… FINALLY.  

Rather than spending your winter staring at the thermostat and reminiscing about your last sunburn, get outside with Avenue Honda Polaris. 

This business has been family-run for almost 45 years, specializing in powersport, utility, and lawn and garden vehicles. Owner Kirk Gyselinck is proud to note that the community turns to Avenue not only before hitting the trails, but also for increasing productivity and efficiency on their acreages and farms.  

Fire Prevention Week takes place nationwide every October, and each year, the Swift Current Fire Department (SCFD) team finds unique ways to spread awareness throughout the community.

The location is 1200 Saskatchewan Avenue W, at the corner of 12th Street NW.

The inclusion of adults experiencing intellectual disabilities in the workforce has gained significant attention in recent years, and for good reason.

What is your favorite book?  Prior to giving my life to Christ, I probably would have said something like the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon – what I would have pegged as a great work of historical fiction.  Now, I would unequivocally and resoundingly say, the Bible. 

Three agents, traditionally considered to be competitors, are working together for the benefit of their clientele.
