In a recent conversation for Discover Humboldt’s upcoming Year in Review article, Humboldt-Lanigan MLA Donna Harpauer noted that the government had evolved a response plan for health care in the past year. One of the key components focused on recruiting qualified health care personnel from overseas. The Sask Party government is working to fulfill that goal through a recent trip taken to the Philippines as part of its overall Health Human Resources Action Plan. A targeted recruitment mission was led by Health Minister Paul Merriman, and it's one that has seen results. 

The Humboldt Broncos Memorials Committee, comprised of representatives of the 2017-2018 Humboldt Broncos Families, Humboldt Broncos Board members, Humboldt Public Art committee, and City Council, released an update on its activities. The release came via the City of Humboldt's web page. 

The Humboldt Broncos closed out 2022 with a win and a strong showing against the Weyburn Red Wings on Saturday night. 
The Broncos skated away with a 3-0 win.  That followed a Friday afternoon matinee in Kindersley where the Horsemen came away with a 5-2 victory. 
On Friday, Ben Kotylak wasted no time opening the scoring in the first minute. Kindersley responded, but Maddox Amaral and Daylan Weigel gave the Broncos are 3-1 lead after the first. Amaral scored again in the third to seal the win.

Saskatchewan campers and their visitor friends can make a new fashion statement starting this summer. Saskatchewan Provincial Parks will offer custom-designed Sask Parks hoodies and t-shirts in time for the 2023 camping season in all provincial parks.

"Visitors have been asking about Sask Parks apparel for years, and so we are thrilled to be able to offer this in our parks," Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Laura Ross said. "We know it's going to be exciting to see people wear their Saskatchewan pride on their sleeve."

There will be a performance for the public on Sunday, December 18. It will all take place at St. Augustine Parish starting at 2:00 pm. 

“This concert is going to feature many families from the parish, but it’s open to the entire community to attend,” said coordinator Erika Rybinski.

The theme for this concert is ‘O come let us adore’, says Rybinski.

Admission is through a silver donation, with funds raised going toward the parish. Rybinski says there will be a raffle with prizes to enter and invites the community of Humboldt to attend.
