During the online auction of retail liquor sale licenses, Humboldt was among the communities where bidders picked up the permit to vend liquor. Now, the Humboldt bid is among the 10 out of 35 where the deals have fallen through. 

The government confirmed to CTV News that those deals struck for the licenses have been abandoned. The auction came as Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA) wound down its retail operations in the province. 

The Government of Saskatchewan has announced an investment of $134,000 in a new victim witness specialist and part-time administrative support for Melfort and surrounding areas. 

This investment increases the total investment in the provincial Victim/Witness Services program from $656,000 in 2022-23 to $790,000 this year.

With the Victoria Day long weekend on the horizon, the Saskatchewan All-Terrain Vehicle Association (SATVA) wants to remind everyone to ride safe and ride smart his weekend and all summer long. 

“We know lots of people will be out riding on the May long weekend, which makes safety even more important,” said SATVA General Manager John Meed. “Keeping these precautions in mind will allow everyone to have a safe and enjoyable time.” 

A few tips SATVA wants people to remember are: 

You’re guaranteed a toe tapping, even foot stomping good time when Scott Woods comes to town with his show. He’s a renowned Canadian fiddle champion who can weave tales and jokes throughout the jigs and reels for a truly entertaining experience. 

Buoyed by summer temperatures, the crowd at the Lake Lenore Mind, Body and Spirit Fair found vendors, practitioners and presenters galore, each with an offering tailored to supporting individual wellness. Attendees could get a tarot card reading, try Reiki and access bars treatments, and explore the healing and grounding wares.

Leanne Brinkman was one of the organizers who is set to bring a new view to wellness for people in the area. 

The Richardson Pioneer Men’s Fastball League kicked off its season on May 13 on Northshore Fishing Lake with the Rosebud Royals hosting the Wynyard Blues. 

Kobe Faubert pitched for the Royals, throwing 15 strikeouts and Greg Hill threw for the Blues with 14 strikeouts.

Wynyard scored a few runs in the 3rd inning with a home run by Tayler Jordan. 

The Blues would get a few runs from rookies Austin Hilts with two hits and Evan Fisher with two walks to set up a two-run double by Josh Jordan. 

Last chance to catch "The Curst" this weekend at Dancing Sky Theatre. Check out the full story below.

Theatre goers who travelled to Meacham’s Dancing Sky Theatre experience a show like no other with “The Curst.” It’s the story of a band so unlucky that the prospect of success seems like a hollow pursuit for the tenacious band mates. It’s based on the real life story of Library Voice, a talented and revered Regina group formed in the 2000s, dubbed the unluckiest band in Canada.

Safe Communities Humboldt is partnering once again with Humboldt’s Emergency Services team to provide a summer of treats with the Positive Ticketing Campaign. Kids being safe on their wheels this season may be “pulled over” by Emergency Services personnel to receive a positive ticket. 

It’s a simple process, says Safe Communities Humboldt.

1. Be safe on your wheels this summer!

2. Get caught by Emergency Services personnel and get a ticket!

It’s no secret that Saskatchewan is in need of qualified tradespeople to continue its growth track. The projected need for new housing, business and industry facilities in the Humboldt area alone will place considerable demands on the existing workforce.
