After Kerrobert Sports Day last weekend, this weekend is Outlook Amateur Sports Day.

Teams from all over west-central Saskatchewan will be travelling to Outlook for action on one of the five diamonds at the Outlook Sports Grounds. Both softball and baseball action are on tap from the youngest to the oldest age levels, with concessions, a 50/50, and prize table adding to the fun.

This weekend brings hot weather and tons of activities to the Southeast. Events are taking place in many communities, from Landmark to Piney. Come find our Dairy Queen Celebrate Summer Jeep at some of these events for a chance to win some prizes.

Here is where we’ll be: 

Steinbach IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s - Thursday, May 29th  

Join us all summer long for Dairy Queen Celebrate Summer!

The staff at Union Gospel Mission's Charis Centre were the happy recipients of May's Danny's Whole Hog BBQ Lunch Break from CHVN on Thursday.

They were nominated by Lenise, a coworker, who said, "These women work tirelessly pouring into the lives of women struggling in addiction daily. "

The Charis Centre, one of UGM's seven ministries, assists women struggling with addiction.

The nomination form continued, " They are devoted women with servant's hearts. It is a joy to serve alongside these women on a day-to-day basis."

After a rainy month full of muddy paws and cozy cuddles, one pup stood out—and it’s Yeti, a Jack Russell mix with a big heart and a serious love for walks and naps.

Yeti was adopted from the Estevan Humane Society, and according to his owner Dallas, he’s a total mama’s boy who’s happiest when he’s curled up for a nap or out on a stroll. He’s also got a housemate—Arnie—who’s no stranger to the Perfect Pet Contest either. When asked if Arnie might be jealous of Yeti’s win, Dallas was quick to say they’ll share the spotlight.

It ain't what it used to be but it's still high-caliber, entertaining baseball.

The Western Canadian Baseball League season is underway for another summer with 12 teams in the loop, including 5 based in Saskatchewan.

The league's roots can be traced back to 1931 when the Southern Baseball League was founded.

The Salem Home Foundation and the Ladies’ Auxiliary hosted their annual Spring Fundraiser BBQ Wednesday, May 28th to raise funds to improve Salem Park. Karin Oliveira, CEO of Salem Home and executive director of the Salem Foundation, notes that the fundraiser would not only pay for the concrete sidewalk of the park, but also other features for the residents of Salem Home and the community to use. “We like to see the community coming out.” Oliveira shared.
