Weyburn’s own Brayden King will kickoff the 2025-2026 Weyburn Concert Series on Thursday, September 25.
His relentless touring schedule and dynamic energy have earned him a reputation for transforming every show into an unforgettable celebration. With accolades from industry icons and a fervent fan base, King is poised to redefine the boundaries of country music.
He consistently delivers authentic, high-octane performances that leave audiences craving more. His passion promises an undeniably extraordinary future. This concert is bound to leave you wanting more.
When asked about the upcoming show in Weyburn, King had this to say.
“I’m looking forward to so many different things about playing in my hometown. We get to play in the Cugnet Centre—the same stage where I went to high school—which is just incredible. I grew up performing there with my band, The 7th Avenue, and was part of so many musical productions on that stage. To be invited back to headline a show there is surreal.
“Seeing familiar faces is always the best part—it’s such a warm, welcoming homecoming every time I come back to Weyburn. So many friends and family will be there. And honestly, I’m also pumped for the food. Eating sushi and chicken tenders at the Royal Hotel
has been my favourite since forever, and now it’s my band’s favourite too. We can’t wait. It’s going to be awesome.”
King was asked about influences that inspired and guided him to pursue his career in music.
“Colleen Weimer was my music teacher from a very young age, and she really believed in my passion for music. Tanya Cameron, my band teacher, was another huge supporter. Cleo at Music Craft gave me my first job, ran sound for my band, and encouraged us every step of the way. Alfredo was an incredible guitar teacher who taught me early on.
“I’m also grateful to Tenille Arts. She showed people like me that you can come from Weyburn and still go out into the world and make music. Every time we’ve talked, she’s been so supportive. All of these mentors shaped me into who I am today.”
A new release “Good Ones”, written as a tribute to King’s Mother, will be part of the Weyburn set.
“We’ll definitely be playing “Good Ones.” I wrote it as a tribute to my mom, who we lost in 2022, and to others I’ve lost in my life. Over time, it’s grown into something bigger than me. It’s become a song for anyone who’s experienced loss. We even made a music video with over 300 photo submissions of people who left
this world too soon. Being able to honour those memories through music has been incredibly special. I’m so thankful for how deeply this song has connected with people.”
King and his band will be bringing fan favourites to the stage, along with a few brand new songs that have yet to be released.
“We’ll be playing another brand new song called “Space,” which I wrote about the life that my wife and I are building together. It’s a song I really love, and it comes out September 26.
Beyond that, we’ve got more new music lined up for later this year and well into 2026. And of course, we’ll be staying on the road as much as possible. There are some big concert announcements coming soon that I can’t quite share yet, but we’re very excited.”
When asked about future shows, King said, “Fans can expect plenty of shows—we’re always on the road playing for as many people as possible. Outside of the “Bootleg Tour”, I can’t reveal specific announcements just yet, but there are a bunch of exciting concerts coming up. My band and I are having the time of our lives touring, and we’re grateful every day that we get to do what we love.”

Assiniboia Park embracing French Immersion growth
Submitted by Norm Park, Contracted Reporter for SECPSD Assiniboia Park Elementary School leaders and students in their French Immersion project are definitely engaged in the South East Cornerstone Public School Division’s mission statement mandate to provide opportunities for the youngsters to learn and succeed.
The school launched the French Immersion program during the 2021-22 school year, despite the challenges of a community recovering from the negative impacts brought about by the COVID pandemic.
The program has since grown from a Grade 2 level to the point where there are now 92 young people involved from Grade K through 6 with the expectations that once the current Grade 6 cadre of 10 students reaches Grade 7 levels and beyond, they will be included in an ongoing French Immersion program offered at the Weyburn Comp School.
To outline the progress being witnessed and led within APES, Principal Dan Manning and vice-principal Susan Husband were invited to the SECPSD boardroom on September 17 to deliver a presentation featuring the project.
Using data-driven graphs and videos, the Assiniboia
team outlined the successes and challenges accompanying the program since its introduction. They pointed to the reading and comprehension levels that were generally successful and progressive as the students advanced within the program. They also focused on the mathematics element in the program, also using the data driven charts and graphs to describe the strengths and occasional weaknesses that can, and are being addressed.
It was about process and procedure, Husband noted, with the results showing how the students are gaining strength in the reading skills.
Manning said the young learners have grasped the similarities between the two official languages, as well as the differences.
“There is assistance for those who might struggle,” Manning noted while adding that professional development days are welcomed for those educators in the program since hiring and retaining French teachers is an ongoing challenge.
Husband spoke of how Assiniboia Park is moving along as a dual track school with 157 students joining the 92 French Immersion kids in regular school functions,
noting how “keeping them together” remained as an important part of the school’s mandate.
Manning mentioned several highlights that included overall community acceptance and engagement, special events and sharing opportunities to advance the program and its students.
Hiring the qualified teachers was one challenging issue, they noted, as was the transportation of the children within the school bus system.
The successes have included the fact that the desire to keep the school as a dual track entity appears to be working well with assemblies and special events.
The duo also expressed their positive reactions to the fact that funding to support the program appears to be solid and a French Language assistant has been hired to help advance the project.
A video featuring students in the program explaining “why I love French Immersion” was played for the benefit of the board members.
Director of Education, Keith Keating thanked the duo on behalf of the division and the board along with chairwoman Audrey Trombley.

Editorial & Opinion
FROM THE SIDELINES: Free-range
Norm Park/SaskToday.ca
Free-range kid opportunities pretty well done
There could still be some advantages in being a kid in smaller towns or villages.
While the selection of friends and social outlets may be limited, there is also the allure of perhaps being one member of the now almost forgotten free-range kid community.
Growing up in central Saskatchewan in a town of about 1,700 population allowed many of us to be just that, if we weren’t working in parental businesses, doing homework or making our way to the rink or ball diamonds to check up on our athletic pursuits.
Our town for most of my early years had one policeman.
So we had, what I like to refer to as a neighbourhood justice system through most of the community. After all we all knew who was who and where they lived.
Kids, like the local pet dogs, pretty well ran free, but we were always aware of the fact that neighbourhood watchdogs knew where we were and what we were up to and they weren’t snooping, it was just a local ritual that I’m sure took place in all small communities. Monitoring kid action was just part of the lifestyle for adults while doing domestic chores or enjoying a day off. There would be no need for interference, leadership roles or penalties. Just being a lookout once in awhile was good enough. Day care centres didn’t exist. Babysitters did for the very young. If a kid got hurt, broke a window or somehow managed to get in a tussle, there could be brief intervention and, if necessary, parental involvement later. Usually the incident would involve a confession, apology and the dedication of the
next allowance toward replacing a broken window and all would be fine. Neighbourhood justice. There would be no need to involve the local police officer. He had more important things to tend to.
A little independence in childhood can be a good thing, but I realize with the current environments we have built, it’s probably impossible.
My friends and I would conjure up new games to play in case there were no organized events to attend or compete in. I remember some stupid games we invented that would make no sense to the adult world, but provided us with hours of entertainment, especially if the “event” caught the attention of the other kids.
Road hockey, played with real pucks, not tennis balls, was a traditional action plan. No nets, but rather a small stack of snow representing them. Some would have to be remade if the passing motorist decided he or she needed a laugh and would run over our so-called goalposts. We could play after school under streetlights and then go home to nurse frozen fingers and toes and tuck toques into heat registers to dry them off.
Bullies? Ya, a few, but usually their issues were taken care of by the young people themselves. Again, there was no need to involve the town cop. We would just work it out to a successful or at least, a semi-successful solution or conclusion.
Internet platforms make it a far different world from what many of us came from.
There are hundreds of thousands of new bullies and they’re not just in the neighbourhood, they are online. Growing AI is the new challenge.
Parents have a difficult time monitoring the new world order that is programming brains of the young people and that

takes place on various sites and these sites have a tendency to take over, especially if the parents are not tuned in and aware of what is happening.
When you have a ChatGPT offering student tutors, where do you slot in emotional and cognitive development opportunities?
Parents still need to be involved in the process along with the trained educators. Parents still have first dibs on oversight I would think.
Is the community today allowing AI to do the thinking? Is critical thinking in jeopardy? Are robotic moves replacing human creativity? Do kids even have some tech free time any more? You know, time to maybe think up and develop stupid games like we did as kids? Games or action plans that caught on, just because, well, because we were kids and didn’t need AI tools to spark the imaginations. We invented, used, abandoned and then wondered, “what can we do next?”
This newer world order can be fright-
ening, but also sad, because today’s young people won’t be able to enjoy the benefits that used to prevail in that freerange environment. That’s unfortunate I’m thinking, because I sometimes wonder that perhaps being a member of that earlier community of free-range pre-teen and early teen groupings had more positives than negatives attached to it.
But there are various other challenging elements now engrained in this new worldly environment, over and above internet interferences and interactions that make our villages, towns and cities different and not necessarily in a positive way. We have had to move along from that old neighbourhood justice model and that’s kind of sad I think.
There might prove to be better options. More protections are warranted, as new challenges emerge that kids and families have to deal with on a regular daily basis.
We will await the results that will be noted within the next decade I suppose.
The Weyburn Police Service (WPS) responded to 88 calls for service during the week of September 15 through September 22, 2025. The following is a summary of notable incidents from this period: Assault by choking, assault, and unlawfully in a dwelling house Police were dispatched to a residence for a domestic disturbance in progress on September 18. Upon arrival, officers learned that an adult male had fled the scene after assaulting an adult female. The suspect was later located and arrested without incident. He was remanded into custody and will appear in Weyburn court at a future date.
Assault: Police received a complaint that a male youth had thrown a liquid substance from a “Big Gulp” cup on a younger female youth on September 19. The male was charged with assault and will appear in court at a later date. While this may seem like a minor offence, such actions can be very upsetting for victims and may have criminal consequences. This serves as an important reminder for parents to discuss with their children how what may seem harmless or funny to some, can, in fact, be very upsetting to others.
Cause a Disturbance: In the early morning hours of September 20, police received a report of an intoxicated adult male attempting to gain entry into a residence where he was not welcome. Upon arrival, officers learned the male had left the area but was located nearby. He was found to be grossly intoxicated, arrested for being Drunk in Public, and lodged in cells until sober.
Passing of Beaumont – Victim Services Dog
It was a sad weekend for the Weyburn Police Service as Beaumont, our long-serving Victim Services dog, passed away. Beaumont faithfully served the community, Victim Services, and the Weyburn Police Service for over 10 years. Even after his official retirement,
he remained a beloved presence in our office for several years until his passing. Our deepest condolences go to his handler, and best friend, Tara, our Victim Services Coordinator, as well as to everyone whose lives were touched by Beaumont’s service and companionship.
Well-Being/Mental Health Checks
WPS responded to eight well-being and mental health-related calls during the week. Most were resolved without requiring further intervention. In one case, an individual required additional support and was transported to hospital for care.
Bylaw of the Week:
Road Closures and Detours
As construction season winds down, the Weyburn Police Service would like to remind residents why road closures and detours are so important. These measures are not just an inconvenience — they are put in place to protect workers, drivers, and pedestrians.
The City of Weyburn’s Traffic Bylaw authorizes the use of traffic control devices such as signs, barricades, and detours to regulate, warn, and guide traffic. This bylaw also gives the City the authority to temporarily close streets or restrict parking when required for construction or public works projects.
When drivers ignore, move, or damage signage, they are not only breaking the rules — they are creating serious safety risks and potentially delaying progress on important projects.
By respecting closures and following detour routes, drivers help ensure work is completed safely and efficiently, keeping our community moving forward.
Public Assistance Requested
Anyone with information regarding these or other matters of a criminal nature is encouraged to contact the Weyburn Police Service at (306) 848-3250, the local RCMP Detachment at 310-RCMP (7267), or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
