It's definitely a bright future on the ice for Saskatoon’s Alida Korte. 

A familiar name in the area, Korte was in Humboldt last week as a guest coach for the Girls camp at the Humboldt Broncos Summer Hockey School. 

At 17, Korte has already established an impressive hockey profile, but there’s no doubt she’s plans on continuing to add to it.  

Encouraged by both her brother and father, Alida began playing hockey at the age of five. Korte played on boys’ teams until age 15, then switched to girls’ hockey in Saskatoon. 

Lanigan’s Kash Elke has agreed to a WHL Scholarship and Development Agreement with the Moose Jaw Warriors. 

Earlier this spring, Elke was selected in the first round of the 2025 WHL Prospects Draft.  

After some scorching days with temperatures in the mid 30s, there's a chance the temperature will be moving the other way this week. 

There is a risk of frost for the Humboldt area later tonight.  

Environment and Climate Change Canada’s Crawford Luke explains that it will be a cooler week after last’s week sizzler. 

It was a quick sprint for the Humboldt Broncos as they opened training camp on the weekend with their fall camp. 

After Friday night’s Green and Gold, the top 40 players in camp battled for the Elgar Petersen Cup on Saturday between the Green and Gold squads.  

The Labour Day Classic lived up to its name this weekend.  

In the 60th edition of the game, it was the Saskatchewan Roughriders who came out on top, defeating the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 34-30.  

Saskatchewan remains in first place in the Western Division with the victory.  

 
With a new school year set to begin, the Saskatchewan RCMP is encouraging everyone to make the transition back to school a safe one.  

Some tips they are providing for parents to remind their children as they head to class in the morning include: 

The future of the Humboldt Broncos was on display in their first preseason game on Sunday night in Melville as the Millionaires beat the Broncos 4-3 in a shootout.

Trailing 2-0 early in the second period, Boston Schmidt put the Broncos on the scoreboard with the team's first goal of the preseason.

Melville would later extend their lead to 3-1. 

With less than a second remaining in the middle frame, Gabriel Kaminski scored to cut the green and gold deficit back to one heading into the final twenty minutes.

Labour Day is usually recognized as the unofficial switch from summer to fall and in the Canadian Football League (CFL), the Labour Day long weekend signifies a change in the regular season. 

Three of the top rivalries in the league will be showcased this weekend as the playoff race hits another gear.  

Week two of Bolt FM and Discover Humboldt’s Meal in the Field brought an early harvest treat to the Hartl family, who farm near Lake Lenore. 

A delicious meal from the Bella Vista Inn was waiting for the crew as they took a short break from the harvest.  

The only ice you will find on this scorching Labour Day long weekend is either inside of a cold drink or at the hockey rink. 

That’s definitely the case in the province, as the 2025-26 Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) season gets underway with training camps beginning on the weekend including here in Humboldt.  

The Humboldt Broncos will begin their preparations for the upcoming season on Friday with fall camp.
