The Sunrise Early Learning Centre preschool group braved the rain on Friday afternoon, hosting a lemonade stand outside their facility on King Street. 

Renee MacDonald, an early childhood educator at Sunrise, says the idea came from one of their students. 

“The kids have been really into doing lemonade things in in the center and playing lemonade stand in the cafe and stuff, and one of the kids asked if we could do a lemonade stand. We kind of took it from there and they helped us plan and make a poster and make the lemonade.” 

The Family Place is marking a major milestone this week, 30 years of supporting families in the community. 

To celebrate, the organization is hosting a special anniversary event on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 744 McLelland Street. The celebration is a come-and-go event, open to all, with plenty of activities for both kids and adults.

The 18U AA Weyburn Beavers were at home Saturday afternoon, braving the smoky conditions to take on the North Battleford Beavers at Tom Laing Park in a double header. The two teams would exchange wins, with North Battleford taking the first game 6-4, and Weyburn the second 3-1.  

The first game would see the visitors put up five runs in the fifth inning to take the lead, and they held on for the victory. 

It was a busy weekend for Weyburn lacrosse teams, with three teams travelling to Swift Current for games, and one team heading to Regina.

One day after an explosive win in Moose Jaw, the Weyburn Beavers found themselves in another nail-biter Sunday afternoon, this time on home turf. Despite a strong mid-game surge, the Beavers fell 8-7 to the Moose Jaw Miller Express, who secured their first win of the season. 

Weyburn’s offence was once again sparked by second baseman Alex Alva, who continued his hot streak at the plate. 

The Completely Branded RentPro Weyburn Razorbacks were looking to carry the momentum of a close loss Thursday into Sunday’s game in Swift Current against the Wolverines. The Razorbacks would carry the lead into the third period, but Swift Current would rally late, scoring three goals in the third period to win 6-5.

Canada's premiers are heading into to a meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney in Saskatoon Monday armed with their wish lists for major "nation-building" projects that could buttress the economy in the face of a U.S. trade war.

Carney asked the premiers to each pass on five suggestions for national infrastructure projects, and Monday's meeting will aim to identify the ones that will make the final cut to be fast tracked using legislation Ottawa may introduce as early as this week.
