Farmers’ market a true taste of Saskatchewan

We continue to be thankful for the rain that has now learned how to fall. The rich green environment surrounding us is a much prettier sight, as are the beautiful sounds of the rain falling. Let’s hope the trend continues this summer.

Deemed pink socks weekend, the Girls Prairie Softball League event hosted in Unity saw plenty of pink and a well-run event that elicited numerous compliments on both the facility and the volunteers, especially the grounds keepers who worked so hard to keep the diamonds in play even as the rain fell.

We continue to be thankful for the rain that has now learned how to fall. The rich green environment surrounding us is a much prettier sight, as are the beautiful sounds of the rain falling. Let’s hope the trend continues this summer.

The rave reviews about the weekly farmers’ market are indication enough that, if you haven’t attended yet, you will want to. The home-made and home-grown products are guaranteed fresh and you get to meet the vendors. Vendors are always welcome to join and can contact Carmen Bowker or visit their Facebook page for details. Every Friday, come and experience this true taste of Saskatchewan at the Legion Hall from 2 to 5 p.m. with one late market per month.

The accolades rolled in long after the crowds rolled out from the first Girl’s Prairie Softball League hosted in Unity May 27 weekend. Mother Nature did her best to inhibit the process, but when comments referring to the grounds crew working like a well trained Nascar pit crew came in, it was evidence the organizers and volunteers did a stellar job.

Unity Public School has just a couple weeks left of classes and will soon bid farewell to their Grade 6 students who will head to the high school in the fall. June 10 is the track and field meet with an alternate date of June 13. The SCC will host a year-end barbecue June 17 and June 24 is Grade 6 celebration day.

At St. Peter’s School, they too are savouring the last days of the Grade 6 class before they head to high school in the fall. It’s been a full yet fun year for students and teachers alike. Bravo to all of the musical talents that have blessed so many events this year and to the students who have been part of their community in this manner.

 UCHS was proud of the large contingent of athletes that represented Warrior track at the provincial meet. Tuesday, staff celebrated and honoured academics and athletics and other accolades of students at their annual awards day ceremonies. Thursday, staff are proud to take another large contingent of students to be recognized at the Living Sky School Division hall of fame night.

Don’t forget to bring your visitors and guests to the Unity museum and show them this terrific venue. Take a step back in time and enjoy all that is on display and so well maintained at our museum. You may just catch a grad photo shoot or two while you’re there.

The oilman’s golf event takes place Friday and that kicks off tournament season at the Unity Golf Course. Men’s and ladies’ nights take place during the week and the nice weather has brought a great turnout of golfers to enjoy this facility.

Coffee row folks can hardly keep up with all the in-town news as they enjoy having so much activity taking place in Unity. It gives them plenty to look forward to and plenty to review. A little sigh of relief was breathed when some timely rain finally arrived. And, Rider season is becoming more imminent, so green conversations abound. So you see we keep busy in Unity with activities and wisdom from our friends on coffee row. Until next time…
