Over the past week, the Weyburn Fire Department has responded to two calls at two separate locations about a person who was stuck in an elevator. Fire Chief Trent Lee said it is very rare the WFD does get a call about a person trapped in an elevator, but it does happen from time to time.  

In the rare instance a person does get trapped in an elevator, Lee said the best thing to do is remain calm.  

WELCH, Dorothy Ione

"Come on out, maybe buy some early Christmas presents and maybe some veggies and stuff," invited Park Manager Darren Wheeler. "If you're still wanting to get your name in and get registered for the vendor, you're more than welcome. Just just give Michelle Warken a call and you can get you signed up for it."

“Snoring and daytime fatigue are the two biggest reasons a person will get tested,” acknowledges Tracey Alcorn. “But there are a lot of other signs and symptoms.”
