There is always a lot that goes into running a sports program of any kind, and money is part of it. That is especially true for the Vanier Vikings Football program, which is holding a first-of-its-kind rib dinner fundraiser.

Attendees will be able to have a great meal at the Crushed Can Rec Room and Bar on June 9 from 4 - 8 p.m. Players of the team will be in the house, and you will have a shot at winning door prizes and a 50/50 draw.

KidSport Grande Prairie and Sport Central are teaming up to help local kids get off the sidelines and into the game.

If you thought wildlife rehabilitation was all syringes and serious faces, Zoe Nakata is here to prove otherwise.

The Executive Director of Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre dropped by the Country 107 studio this morning, where she joined Carly Koop for a round of rapid-fire Q&A—and let’s just say, we covered everything from blanket snuggles to diva swans, with a healthy dose of owl obsession thrown in for good measure. The Centre is hosting a baby Shower on Saturday and questions asked were all about baby animals that visit the crew at Wildlife Haven. 

Carnie's Comments

Time for Throwback Thursday - just a minute to remember the good ol' days.

It was the fall of 1973. The Carnie family had just moved from Regina to Moose Jaw and I got my first taste of the old Civic Centre.

I quickly became a fan of the SJHL's Canucks and, later in life, became friends with a few of the guys who played on that team like hometown boy Marv Merkel and Elbow, Saskatchewan's Kent Knutson.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority is calling on Estevan residents to step forward and support the local Meals on Wheels program, which is in urgent need of volunteers.

Deborah Augey, Volunteer Coordinator with the Saskatchewan Health Authority, joined the SUN 102 Morning Show to share how Estevan residents can get involved with the Meals on Wheels program — and how meaningful the experience can be not just for recipients, but for volunteers as well.

“People feel good by doing good. It warms our hearts — both the recipients and our own.”
