The Saskatchewan Health Authority is alerting the public of a measle exposure risk that recently occurred in Rosthern and Saskatoon.  

If you were at an identified location during the specified times below, please monitor for measles symptoms for up to 21 days after exposure.

As evacuees return home after being displaced from the northern wildfires, the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) offered some tips to those who are returning home as a part of their update on Tuesday. 

• Wait for official clearance before re-entering.  

• Be prepared to experience grief and loss.  

$1 million will be heading to Food Banks in the province as a part of the $2 million commitment the Saskatchewan Government pledged. 

The announcement was initially made in July of 2024, with the first installment provided to the Food Banks of Saskatchewan last August. The remaining $1 million will be distributed to the food banks next month to agencies based on the population and average food bank usage of the communities they serve.   

Team Saskatchewan held their official kickoff on Monday with the announcement of all the athletes that will be competing in the upcoming Canada Summer Games in St. John’s Newfoundland. 

Hayden Kot from Regina was named Saskatchewan’s flag bearer at the opening ceremonies at the kickoff. Kot will be competing in both basketball and volleyball at the games.  

A new wave of local golf talent is emerging in Humboldt, with young players showing poise, passion, and promise on the course.

Jack Unrau, Tryton Langevin, Beau Tremblay and Max Braitenbach competed in the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour (MJT) event at Moon Lake, just outside of Saskatoon on Sunday.  

More than 1,000 community groups and organizations in the province were the latest recipients of $2.49 million from charitable gaming grants from Lotteries and Gaming Saskatchewan (LGS) during the first quarter of the 2025-26 fiscal year. 

Groups and organizations within the Humboldt and Melfort area received more than $148,000.  

Along with the wide assortment of vehicles along Main Street in Watrous for last Saturday’s Fun Run were RCMP vehicles with lights flashing and the occasional siren wail. 

In a quiet, unassuming lot tucked away on the western edge of Watrous, musical alchemy continues to happen at Skull Creek Studios. The studio has migrated from its southwestern Saskatchewan roots to the centre of the province where it’s been gaining serious traction as a production hotspot for emerging and established artists on the prairies.
