At the 2025 Canada Summer Games in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Team Saskatchewan’s Men’s Baseball team wrapped up the round robin with a 2-0 loss to BC.  

Team Saskatchewan was limited to a pair of hits in the game as Muenster’s Cade Britz was 0 for 2 at the plate.  

Humboldt City Council met on Monday evening for their executive meeting in August.  

Among the items discussed was the Monthly Protective Services report that was delivered by Director Mike Kwasnica.  

He noted July was busy for the Community Safety Officer (CSO) Program. Kwasnica said the CSO received a boost with the hiring of Bruce Ehalt, who will be providing services one day a week in Lanigan and Watson and one day a week in Humboldt.

That's followed by the Green and Gold game at 6:00 pm. 

The next day, after a morning practice at 10, the Elgar Petersen Cup will be on the line featuring the top 40 players remaining. 

The Saskatoon Berries were able to extend their season for at least more game, as they defeated the Regina Red Sox 8-4 on Monday night to even up the East Division Final at 1-1.  

After the teams traded runs in the first inning, the Red Sox grabbed a 2-1 in the second.

Following a repair of a mini water break on Saturday, a Drinking Water Advisory has been issued for residents of the 900 and 1000 blocks of 10th Street in Humboldt.

Baseball fans in the Bridge City got their money’s worth over the weekend. 

The Saskatoon Berries played in a pair of extra inning thrillers on consecutive nights at the NexGen Patch, splitting a pair of playoff games.  

On Saturday, after being rained out the previous night, the Berries faced off with the Moose Jaw Miller Express in the deciding game of their best of three series.  

Not even the rain on Thursday could put a damper on the pool party held at the Lanigan & District Waterpark.  

The celebration was held to recognize the newest piece of equipment added to the facility, the water accessible wheelchair sponsored by Long Lake Insurance.  

At the grand opening of the waterpark in Lanigan, Long Lake Insurance pledged to provide the water accessible wheelchair.
