If you enjoy ball then you will want to head to the diamonds as they will be full of softball games all weekend, with 39 teams taking part in the Girls鈥� Prairie Softball League playoff weekend being held in Unity.
Divisions from U12, U14, U16 and U19 will all square off looking to capture the league title and as a final tune up before provincial play downs. The booth will be open and there will be plenty of room for fans in the stands or along the fences surrounding the diamonds. The location also includes a children鈥檚 park and is close to the swimming pool.
Congratulations to Brian Woytiuk, who was named 2018 Unity Citizen of the Year at the annual banquet held in conjunction with Unity Western Days. Brian has long been involved with Unity Western Days. He has also organized the Unity Fun Day of Golf in September, he was chair of the Unity Facilities Committee raising money for the new pool and ground floor hall and he volunteers with the Miners hockey club throughout the winter. There are probably dozens more entries on his resume, but he often contributes behind the scenes.
