Shanine Sealey, Martensville Messenger

The business community came together in style to celebrate innovation, dedication, and outstanding service at the Prairie Sky Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards, an annual event that shines a spotlight on the region’s most exceptional businesses and leaders. Held in a spirit of celebration and community pride, the event recognized businesses and individuals across a variety of categories, each of whom have made a significant impact in Warman, Martensville, Osler and the surrounding area.

Sheri Turgeon: Breaking Barriers and Inspiring Through Dance

With more than 25 years of experience, Sheri Turgeon’s journey through dance is a powerful story of passion, perseverance, and inclusion.

Sheri’s love of movement began at the age of three when she joined the Kids In Motion program with the University School of Dance. She remained with the school until age 18 before advancing to competitive dance with Dance Ink in Saskatoon. Her commitment to her craft has taken her far beyond the local dance scene, including two formative summers training in New York City with the renowned Kitty Lunn, a ballerina who adapted the traditional ballet syllabus for dancers who use wheelchairs.

This year's winners included: New Business Award: Stu’s Indoor Golf, Small Business Award: Nova Physiotherapy, Customer Service Award: Warman Physiotherapy & Wellness, Business Marketing Award: The High Maintenance Hippie Local Market, Community Involvement Award: Jason’s Auto Glass, Employer of the Year: Carter’s Counselling Services, Business of the Year: Laskowski Wright & Baker and the Chamber Champion Award was awarded to Jaime Holowaty for her dedication, volunteerism and unwavering support of the Chamber and local business development. The Prairie Sky Chamber of Commerce continues to play a vital role in connecting and empowering businesses throughout the region. Events like the Business Excellence Awards not only recognize success but also inspire others to strive for innovation, community engagement, and leadership. Congratulations to all of this year’s winners and nominees!

Over the years, Sheri has performed at a wide variety of events and fundraisers, including Telemiracle, Dancing for Dogs, the Regina International Film Festival, Saskatchewan Fashion Association Fashion Week, and various professional conferences in Saskatoon and Edmonton. Her talent has also graced the stages of events like Dare to Dance and Dance on the Saskatchewan.

Sheri has participated in numerous competitions across Saskatchewan, but her proudest achievements have been at the Dance World Cup, an international competition where she earned gold medal standings in 2017, 2023, and 2024, and is already qualified to compete again in the 2025 season in Whistler, BC. Notably, she is the only dancer in a wheelchair to have ever qualified for the Dance World Cup. To earn a place in the competition, dancers must not only reach a high-performance benchmark but also receive unanimous invitations from all three international adjudicators.

“Meeting dancers from around the world is always one of my favourite parts of attending the Dance World Cup,” Sheri noted.

In addition to training in lyrical, ballet, and contemporary styles, Sheri has taken on a new role as an instructor. Invited by Dance Ink Director Ashley Berrns, she began co-teaching Dance Inklusive classes, an inclusive program designed for dancers of all abilities. What started as two classes has now grown into three, highlighting a growing interest and demand for inclusive dance spaces.

“I believe that dance is for everyone as it allows you to express yourself in many ways,” Sheri said. “Whether you're considering a career in dance or just looking for a fun activity, I highly recommend trying a class at Dance Ink. There are classes for everyone, from preschoolers to adults, and no experience is required. You’ll feel welcome the moment you walk through the doors.”

Sheri Turgeon continues to be a trailblazer in the world of dance, proving that with dedication, heart, and community support, the art form truly has no limits.

Annual Walk for Dog Guides Honors

Former Lions Club Member Doug Ward

Jocelyn Ottenbreit, Martensville Messenger

Martensville’s 11th annual Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides put on by the Martensville & District Lions Club and the Saskatoon Lions club was held on Sunday, May 25th. A total of 34 dogs, 8 service dogs and many people came out to support the event.

The walk started at Lions Park, where participants registered and met other walkers as well as some of the dog guides participating in the walk.

Around 2pm, participants began the journey from Lions Park to Kinsmen Park, with a stop at Cones Ice Cream where the dogs received free pup cups provided by Wag Dog Daycare & Boarding Centre. Hydration stations were available to keep the dogs hydrated. Participants then returned to Lions Park where they had a BBQ, various door prizes, raffle prizes, and treat bags for the dogs to take home.

All funds raised will go towards helping local families receive a dog guide free of charge. The event raised $26,750, according to Maria Fowler of the Martensville & District Lions Club.

This year’s walk held particular significance due to the passing of Doug Ward, a former member of the Lions Club, on the morning of the event. Ward had been deeply committed to the Lions Club for many years, and as a dog owner himself, he found this event especially meaningful.

“Our community of Martensville stepped up to the plate to honor Doug in this walk. This was a ‘Walk for Doug,’ said Fowler.

As the event continues in the future, participants will carry forward the spirit of 'Walk with Doug,' ensuring that his commitment to the Lions Club and passion for dog guides remains an enduring inspiration.

Engines, Entertainment & Community Spirit: Spruce Manor Car Show Returns

June 7th

Shanine Sealey, Martensville Messenger

On June 7th, the streets surrounding Spruce Manor Special Care Home in Dalmeny will come alive with chrome, horsepower, and heartfelt community spirit as the annual Spruce Manor Car Show & Shine rolls into town. Running from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., this cherished event is more than just a display of classic cars, it’s a fundraiser, a celebration, and a symbol of how strong community ties can drive meaningful change.

What started in 2015 as a small Father’s Day event with just 19 cars in the parking lot has grown into a full-fledged community celebration that now draws close to 100 vehicles. “It was meant to be something special for the residents, a way to celebrate Father’s Day with their families,” explained Nikki Hyland, who has been involved since the very first show. “Now it’s a major fundraiser and a highlight of the year for everyone at Spruce Manor.”

After a brief pause during the pandemic, the event returned stronger than ever, thanks to passionate staff, dedicated volunteers, and overwhelming local support. Christine Pady, Spruce Manor CEO/Administrator, shared, “It’s about showing the community that this home matters, and that they’re a part of it.”

Proceeds from the event will go toward much-needed kitchen renovations at Spruce Manor. The current kitchen is as old as the building itself, and funds raised through the car show will help cover some of the necessary updates. “It’s always about improving quality of life for our residents,” said Christine. “Whether that’s new beds, a renovated kitchen, or enhanced recreational opportunities, the money stays right here where it matters.”

This year’s event promises fun for the whole family with live entertainment sponsored by Dalmeny Funeral Home, face painting provided by Little Pharmacy, a BBQ, along with watermelon and rollkuchen with drinks provided by the Dalmeny supermarket, raffle & auction prizes including a Ninja cooler, car polishing kit, an electric blanket, a fire truck tour of Dalmeny for five courtesy of the local fire department and more. There will also be driver gift packages sponsored by local businesses like Coop, Herron Meats, and Harvard Western Insurance.

“Thank you to the community members, and everyone that have supported the home over the years, and who are showing their support this year to our car show. And thank you to all of the staff members that have stepped up to volunteer,” Christine said. “They have been putting in extra hours, which just goes to show that they see Spruce Manor as more than just a job, but also as a passion for caring for the residents here and ensuring they have the best quality of life here possible.”

The event is especially meaningful to Spruce Manor’s residents. As the cars begin arriving after the annual Dalmeny parade, excitement builds inside the home. “The residents watch from the windows as the street fills up with classic cars and families,” said Nikki. “It really transforms their day.”

“This is an event where everyone can come and enjoy, from car enthusiasts to kids and grandparents,” said Nikki. “We want it to feel like home, because that’s what Spruce Manor is.”

Volunteers will be easy to spot in bright blue Car Show T-shirts, many are Spruce Manor staff donating their time to make the event successful. “Our team goes above and beyond every year,” Christine said. “It’s not just a job to them, it’s a passion.” Whether you’re entering a car, bringing the kids for some face painting, or just looking to support a great cause, the Spruce Manor Car Show welcomes you.

If you are interested in volunteering or getting involved next year, contact (306) 254-2101.

As Nikki put it best, “This car show started with a few old cars and a big heart. And it’s that heart that keeps growing every year.”

From Teacher to Top Dog: How One Family Turned a Personal Need into Martensville’s Most Loved

Dog Daycare

What began as a personal journey to balance motherhood and dog ownership has transformed into one of Martensville’s most beloved pet care facilities. The story of Wag is more than just about dogs; it's about community, compassion, and creating a safe space for pups and their people.

Former special education teacher and Martensville local, Kyla, found her world shifting dramatically when she and her fiancé welcomed their son, Stetsyn. What they didn’t anticipate was that their baby would require ongoing medical care, turning their family’s daily routine into a schedule of appointments and constant care.

Returning to the classroom became impossible, but so did the idea of leaving behind her passion for meaningful work. On top of it all, their energetic 10-month-old puppy, Kaycee, needed constant stimulation and care they just couldn’t find anywhere.

“We wanted the best for Kaycee; somewhere that felt like home, where she could burn off energy and feel safe while we were away,” Kyla recalls. “That didn’t exist at the time, so when the opportunity to take over Wag came up, we took a leap of faith.” And leap they did, pouring heart, soul, and savings into the business, while becoming certified and researching dog care facilities across North America. The dream: to build a community for dogs and their people.

From those early days, Wag has grown into a thriving hub for dogs and their families. With a strong foundation of knowledge and community spirit, the facility now offers doggy daycare, overnight boarding, and soon, private park rentals and community social times.

Whether it’s blazing hot, bitterly cold, smoky from forest fires, windy, or raining, which basically covers every day in Saskatchewan, Wag has created an indooroutdoor environment where dogs can stay active and safe year-round.

“We realized many families wanted their dog to socialize, but in a more controlled, safe setting. Some dogs didn’t have reliable recall, and others needed a gated space. That’s how the idea for our rental park and community social events came to life.”

After growing demand and a daily waitlist, the Wag team decided it was time to expand. Their new location is thoughtfully designed with everything they dreamed of: dedicated check-in/check-out areas, expanded play zones, VIP (Very Important Pup) suites, a calming scent room, and a state-of-the-art air exchange and AC system.

With 16 trained and certified staff members, Wag operates on industry-best staffing ratios (1 staff per 10–15 dogs) and gives dogs 80% out-of-kennel time. Staff are certified in group management, canine body language, first aid, and CPR, ensuring each pup is safe, understood, and happy.

“We also prioritize cleanliness and safety. We’ve built in three dedicated periods each day just for deep cleaning and safety checks,” says Kyla.

Wag is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year, from 7am to 6pm with extended evening care from 7pm to 10pm to accommodate busy families and shift workers.

As a certified Fear Free facility, Wag has gone above and beyond to eliminate fear, anxiety, and stress in every part of the experience. From pet-safe cleaners and carefully chosen kennel layouts to the gentle way medications are administered, everything is designed with the dogs’ well-being in mind.

They don’t charge extra for special feeding, medications, or extra attention, even if that means hand-feeding pups who are missing home.

“These are basic needs to us, not premium services,” says Kyla. “We want our clients to know their dogs are treated like family.”

To celebrate their exciting expansion, Wag is hosting a Grand Opening event on Saturday, May 31, at their new facility located at 910, 8th Street South (just down the road from The Scrub Pet & Car Wash).

Come tour the space, meet the team, and join in the fun. Times are 12:00pm3:00pm for all ages and 3:00pm - 4:00pm for ages 12 and up.

Enjoy swag bags, meet local pet vendors, and say hello to adoptable dogs from New Hope Dog Rescue. Staff will be on site in light blue Wag shirts, ready to answer questions and offer tours.

They even provide picture updates sent straight to your phone when your dog stays with them. At Wag, it’s more than just dog care, it’s a family. Come meet your new pack.

No Transportation Fees for Warman and Martensville

High

School Students in 2025/26: Prairie Spirit Cancels Planned Charges

The Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) has announced that it will no longer implement a previously proposed $250 transportation fee for high school students in Warman and Martensville for the 2025/26 school year. The decision comes after clarification from the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education, which confirmed that school divisions are not permitted to charge fees for student transportation under The Education Act.

The initial plan would have seen families pay $25 per month over 10 months to help cover the cost of transporting high school students living more than 1.5 kilometres from their schools. PSSD clarified that it does not receive provincial funding for urban high school transportation within the two cities, prompting the attempt to offset costs through the fee.

On May 21, PSSD notified families via social media and direct communication of upcoming changes, including the now-cancelled fee and the requirement for students to re-register for bus services. A follow-up post on May 26 confirmed the removal of the transportation fee and included an apology for the confusion and concern caused.

“We apologize for this error and the concern it may have caused,” the Division stated. “We appreciate your understanding as we update our plans.”

In the end, there will be no charge for high school bus transportation in Warman and Martensville, and transportation services will be provided only to students who live more than 1.5 kms from their school. Students living within 1.5kms of the high school will not be eligible for transportation. All urban students, both in elementary school and high school in Warman and Martensville must re-register by Thursday, June 26th for transportation services and may select one location only for pick-up and drop-off to ensure services for the first day of school on September 2, 2025.

PSSD has emphasized that all previous transportation registrations will be void for the 2025/26 school year. Families must now complete one of the following; General Busing Registration: [2025/26 Primary Transportation Request Form] or Childcare Address Registration: [Non-Primary Address Transportation Access Form] – For elementary students needing service to/from a childcare location.

While the Division has committed to continuing transportation services using its general operating budget, PSSD has noted that urban high school transportation remains an unfunded cost. As such, the Division will be exploring other long-term solutions.

For more information or to register, families can contact Prairie Spirit’s Transportation Department at (306) 374-2496 or busing@spiritsd.ca.

Saskatchewan's Building Construction Growth Leads the Country

Province ranks first year-over-year for investment in building construction

On May 26th, Statistics Canada numbers show an increase of 27.8 per cent in March 2025 compared to March 2024 for building construction investment in the province. This places Saskatchewan first among the provinces for year-over-year growth.

"It is clear Saskatchewan remains the destination of choice, whether for business or for those looking to put down roots here," Trade and Export Development Minister Warren Kaeding said. "The continued growth in building construction is leading to more jobs and opportunities for Saskatchewan people, reflecting the strength of our provincial economy."

Residential and non-residential building construction increased 29.8 per cent and 24.2 per cent respectively for March 2025 compared to March 2024.

Investment in building construction is calculated based on the total spending value on building construction within the province.

Statistics Canada's latest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) numbers indicate that Saskatchewan's real GDP at basic prices reached an all-time high of $80.5 billion in 2024, increasing by $2.6 billion, or 3.4 per cent. This places Saskatchewan second in the nation for real GDP growth and above the national average of 1.6 per cent.

Private capital investment in Saskatchewan increased last year by 17.3 per cent to $14.7 billion, ranking first among provinces. Private capital investment is projected to reach $16.2 billion in 2025, an increase of 10.1 per cent over 2024. This is the second highest anticipated percentage increase among the provinces.

Last year, the Government of Saskatchewan unveiled its new Securing the Next Decade of Growth - Saskatchewan's Investment Attraction Strategy. This strategy, combined with Saskatchewan's trade and investment website, InvestSK.ca, contains helpful information for potential markets and solidifies the province as the best place to do business in Canada. For more information visit InvestSK.ca.

New Campaign, “Saskatchewan is Calling,” Aims to Draw Physicians to the Prairies

A physician recruitment advertising campaign with the slogan "Saskatchewan is Calling" has been launched by the Government of Saskatchewan in partnership with the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) and Saskatchewan Healthcare Recruitment Agency (SHRA).

The campaign features practicing physicians based in North Battleford, Saskatoon and Swift Current, showcasing their work environments and how they spend their personal time. In their own words, they share why Saskatchewan is a great choice to build a successful medical practice and enjoy a high quality of life as a physician.

"We want to spread the word amongst physicians from Canada and abroad that Saskatchewan is a great place to put down roots, grow a fulfilling career and enjoy an excellent quality of life in one of our welcoming communities," Health Minister Jeremy Cockrill said. "We have heard from many of our physicians, including those featured in this campaign, that Saskatchewan has what it takes to thrive. I encourage everyone to watch and share these inspirational stories."

"I was pleased to participate in this campaign to showcase the benefits of working in Saskatchewan available to physicians," North Battleford obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Tin-Wing Yen said. "There are so many opportunities for family physicians and specialists in this province. Join our medical community and experience life under the living skies for yourself!"

Built around the stories of the three physicians, the "Saskatchewan is Calling" campaign offers a look at the professional and personal benefits of choosing the province, including:

• Competitive compensation, lower cost of living, comfortable lifestyle and shorter commutes;

• Team-based care and a supportive physician network; and

• Opportunities for career growth, academic and leadership roles.

The campaign will be in market starting today and will be placed on various provincial, national and international online platforms and physical locations such as billboards, subway stations and transit shelters, including in the United States. The campaign videos can also be watched at saskatchewan.ca/HHR.

"We know from our frontline work recruiting health practitioners that peerto-peer interaction is very important to deepen the interest of a prospective candidate," Saskatchewan Healthcare Recruitment Agency Chief Executive Officer Terri Strunk said. "The stories of these physicians, highlighting why Saskatchewan is such a wonderful place to build a rewarding career in healthcare and enjoy a high quality of life, is very compelling to those who may not know much about our province."

This more in-depth storytelling follows a recent US advertising campaign encouraging physicians to consider practising in Saskatchewan where they can enjoy a secure, stable and supportive environment and benefit from one of the most straightforward pathways to medical licensure.

"By investing in our provincial Health Human Resources Action Plan, Saskatchewan is a very attractive place for health care professionals to live, work and build a career," Rural and Remote Health Minister Lori Carr said. "We offer many career opportunities to physicians who want to practice in our great province, along with some of the best physician compensation rates in the country, a supportive work environment and other support programs."

Martensville Maddogs Score Big with Successful Bottle Drive

The Martensville Maddogs are celebrating the success of their recent bottle drive, and it's all thanks to the incredible support of the community—and some generous local partners.

The Maddogs expressed a huge thank you to The SCRUB Auto & Pet Spa, who kindly provided space for the team to sort bottles. Their support played a vital role in the smooth operation of the evening and was instrumental in making the fundraiser a success.

The Maddogs also extend heartfelt appreciation to the Martensville community, whose generous donations continue to fuel the team’s mission.
