Humboldt

Environment Canada’s snowfall warning for east central Saskatchewan was right on target with a significant overnight dumping of snow amounting to around 25 cm accumulation by Tuesday morning. 

As expected, the overnight snowfall has played havoc on regional highways, grids and in town and city streets. The snow was accompanied by north winds gusting in the 50 – 70 kilometre range resulting in drifts and reduced visibility. Ice patches may appear in clear areas due to wind and snow.  

The first major snowstorm has arrived and is not finished yet.

If you have a photo of the snowfall you would like to share text it to us 306-682-0107 or head to our social media pages.

Humboldt and surrounding areas are still under a snowfall warning according to Environment Canada.

Marilyn Scott will be returning as a city councillor in Humboldt after she was among the six candidates that were voted in by the residents last week. 

This will mark the second time Scott will serve as a councillor in Humboldt after she was previously elected in 2009.  

Once the election results were revealed on Wednesday, Scott appreciated the support she received from the community.

Championship season is well underway in high school volleyball across the province. 

This past weekend, Girls volleyball provincial championships were held, along with Boys volleyball regionals.  

It was a strong weekend for local Girls volleyball teams. 

In the 1A final, Annaheim defeated Leroy for the gold medal. 

For the 19th time overall, the Toronto Argonauts are Grey Cup Champions. On Sunday, the Argonauts defeated the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 41-24, as the Argos beat the Blue Bombers are the second time in the last three years.  

Winnipeg has lost the last three straight Grey Cup championship games.  

The Humboldt Broncos managed a split during their Family Weekend picking up a 3-1 win against the Melville Millionaires but were shutout by the Nipawin Hawks the next night 1-0. 

Edouard Gauthier made his return to the Broncos crease on Friday night after being sidelined for nearly a month with an injury. He made 37 saves against the Millionaires as the Broncos picked up their third straight win against Melville over a two-week span.  

If you’ve placed your order for this year’s Holiday Smile Cookies from Tim Horton’s, prepared to celebrate – they'll soon be on the way. Cookie artists are hard at work in the Humboldt Tim’s, slathering the smiles on those great holiday treats. 

This year’s Cookie Cache goes to the St. Mary’s Villa Foundation. While everyone awaits word on the go-ahead for a new and much needed seniors’ care facility, the Foundation is always hard at work fundraising for the cost of furnishings and equipment.
