Relief for Richmound and the village residents. 

Mayor of Richmound, Brad Miller, has received various messages following Romana Didulo's Monday court appearance, celebrating her conditions. 

Chief among them is the order to remain at least 50 kilometres away from Richmound. 

"That's the best thing I've ever heard in my life," said Miller. "If you walk around each town in the area, the people probably have pretty big smiles on their faces. Hopefully, she moves right out of Saskatchewan, or even Canada."

Weyburn's Alex Clarke is a farm wife, a mother of two young children, a full time Relationships Manager in the Ag industry, as well as a world-traveling hockey official that has her away from home up to 100 days in winter.

Maintaining a work-life balance while chasing her dreams has included some sacrifices for the ultimate good of her family. Her children, ages six and two, have seen their mom accomplish the kind of dreams most moms never do.

Today marks Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Awareness Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about the effects of FASD and reminding the public that there is no safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy.

FASD is caused by prenatal alcohol exposure, which can lead to a range of mental, physical, learning and behavioural challenges. It is estimated that up to four per cent of Canadians are living with FASD, including 49,000 in Saskatchewan.

Estevan City Council discussed changes to its sewer service policy at last night’s meeting, with Water and Wastewater Services Manager Matt Angell raising concerns about the costs and strain caused by after hours calls.

Currently, the city offers one free auger service per year to residents. Angell explained that while the policy was intended to cover service during business hours, many requests are being made after hours, creating high overtime costs and requiring multiple staff.

Carnduff was buzzing with energy this past weekend as the community came together for its second annual Fall Fling, an event designed to bring residents of all ages together through food, fun, and entertainment.

“After COVID, many events were cancelled or postponed, so being one of the few yoga festivals happening in Canada right now really drew people in,” said Kim Mayuk, founder of OM Yoga Studio. “Many attendees are already planning to return next year.”
