Main Street and 6th Avenue were filled with music as the musical consortium of Brian Grest, Walter Bushman and Darron Sommer filled the hot summer air with great summer sound. It was the latest summer barbecue sponsored by Humboldt Cultural Services. All proceeds go to supporting cultural programming. 

Week three of Name That Tune was a fun one but unfortunately Wyatt did not have luck on his side. 

He was the first to text in with the correct song scoring him a $50.00 Humboldt Sobeys gift card but then he risked it all to go double or nothing and the music gods were not on his side.

Listen to the replay below.

You could be next to play tune in Friday mornings to hear the song of the day.

Motorists passing through Chamberlain heading to Country Thunder had to be on their best behavior. For the eighth year, the Saskatchewan RCMP had a check stop set up in the village on Wednesday and Thursday before the big country music festival. 

The check stop included Saskatchewan RCMP, Combined Traffic Services Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Conservation Officers and Saskatchewan Highway Patrol.

Despite occasional patchy rainfall and small cell thunderstorms that have dropped intense downpours in isolated areas in east central Saskatchewan, conditions have been drier in the opening week of July.  

Saskatchewan Agriculture’s weekly crop report shows some crop yellowing in low lying areas and those spots impacted by isolated rainfall events. With the heat, sunshine and humidity in play, many crops are reported to be in overall good condition.  

This weekend sees the return of the Evan Thomas Memorial Tournament for 15U AAA baseball teams from across the province. 

The tournament honours Evan Thomas, former Humboldt Bronco, and his love of the summer sport.  

The 16-team tournament starts today, Friday, July 12 and goes through to championship Sunday on the 14th. The East Central AAA Dodgers will be looking to recapture gold after their top finish in 2022.  

Cheers erupted in a Winnipeg courtroom, spilling out onto downtown streets Thursday, as family members who lost their loved ones at the hands of a serial killer said they had finally received justice.

A judge convicted Jeremy Skibicki of first-degree murder in the 2022 slayings of four women in a case that put another bright spotlight on the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada.

Jorden Myran, whose sister Marcedes Myran was killed, said she held back tears when the judge delivered the verdict.

Federal Court in Vancouver is to hear a case today from the Saskatchewan government asking for an injunction to stop the Canada Revenue Agency from collecting millions in carbon levy money.

Premier Scott Moe's government argues it's unconstitutional for Ottawa to take from its bank account, and that it's unfair for Saskatchewan to pay.

Earlier this year, Saskatchewan had stopped remitting the carbon levy on natural gas to Ottawa, after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau exempted home-heating oil users from paying.
