This year’s show saw three clear days for attendees to see equipment, livestock and the latest in technology

Ag In Motion 2025 organizers are pleased with this year’s attendance.

"We’re very pleased with attendance, response from exhibitors and the overall tone of the show this year," said Rob O’Connor, Ag In Motion show director.

With scorching temperatures on Friday night, the only thing generating as much heat as the evening sun was the Saskatchewan Roughriders defensive line, causing havoc with eight sacks, on their way to a 21-18 win over the Edmonton Elks. 

It was a low scoring start with the Elks leading 4-1 after the first 15 minutes.  

The Roughriders pulled ahead in the second quarter with a 15-yard touchdown reception from Samuel Emilus.  

Roaring engines and shining chrome rolled into the Bruno on Sunday for the 19th edition of the Show and Shine. 

Despite a grim forecast leading up to the event, well over 100 vehicles lined themselves on the grass infield inside of the Bruno Sports Ground that attracted spectators from around the region for a day of free fun. 

There is no doubt the future of the car show is in good hands, with exhibitors like 11-year-old Cohen Weiman of Bruno.  

Two teams from Humboldt were in the running this past weekend at the Saskatchewan Baseball Provincial Championships.

Wadena’s Vintage Day had a bonus this year with a special guest in attendance and a reunion with a special and historical piece of farming equipment.  

A great crowd made its way south on Highway 35 in Wadena to the Wadena Museum grounds for displays, demonstrations, music and memories. The iconic train station, moved from its original trackside location in Wadena is the most noticeable feature in a restored village display on the grounds.  

The Supreme Court of Canada has dismissed a request to hear an appeal from Achter Land and Cattle regarding an earlier court decision that found a thumbs-up emoji served as an agreement to a grain contract. South West Terminal launched a claim for damages after Achter Land and Cattle failed to deliver on the contract.

Another spectacular Saturday of summer weather greeted visitors to Watrous on Saturday, July 26 for its annual Fun Run show and shine. While the weather was gorgeous, so was the multitude of vehicles on display lining Watrous’ Main Street. Hundreds of people walked the centre of the street to get a close up look at the automotive wonders on display. Some were stock vehicles with few modifications. Others were madcap inventions, a reflection of the imaginations of these automotive artists.
