Kindersley’s Chamber Has Tons of Events Coming Up!
Wow! Hard to believe that 182 days have gone by so far this year! It has been a busy and productive year for your Chamber of Commerce. We have so much that has happened and is going to happen that Kindersley will be a rockin’ even more. We attended the Sask Oil & Gas Show in Weyburn and that was a successful trip. We partnered with the Town on a booth so that we could make connections and promote Kindersley and area to all the companies there. Mission accomplished. Hopefully back there again in 2026. Following that was our own Trade Show, which again was successful even though we have been off the Trade Show circuit for the past 5 years. Many people who came through were complimentary that we were hosting this again. And even the vendors were happy to be out here displaying their goods and services. We will have another one next year; date to be determined.
The 2024 Golf Tournament preparations are in full swing and looking to be better than the past ones! I am out getting hole sponsorships and prizes and Nikki is looking after the teams. Please call her at 306-460-8384 to register your team. Next up is the Goose Festival running from September 19th to 22nd. The food trucks have been booked and now just need to work on entertainment. The KCS Kobras are back to playing under the lights on the Friday night and the antique car show is a go for right after the parade. If you have any ideas for activities, please drop me a line at the Chamber office, 306-463-2320. The parade is also shaping up well. This year there will be NO THROWING OF TREATS FROM THE FLOATS! We have had some close calls with children running close to the floats to pick up candy and we desperately wish to avoid anyone being injured. Parents, please monitor your children.
A week after the Goose Festival, the Kindersley Fire Dept. will be hosting over 300 students & 40 instructors at the 2024 Saskatchewan Volunteer Fire Fighter Association Fall School. This runs from September 27th to 29th and the hotels and restaurants will be busy! Well done for winning the bid to host this event. After that we take a little breather and focus on the Christmas season. With the amalgamation of the DKA and the Chamber beginning in September, we will be asking for some help with winter activities and ideas. Again, we would like to hear from you for activities and/or if you can spare some time to help out. It is always really appreciated!
2025 promises to be another crazy busy year with the Men’s and Ladies curling championships at the WCEC in January, the semi-annual Chamber hosted Career Day at KCS in the gym at the end of March. June 2025 will be huge. The rodeo of course, the Chamber Trade Show and the Saskatchewan Association of Fire Chiefs Conference. They will be celebrating 75 years and chose Kindersley as the place to be. Well done for hosting this important event. And the golf tournament again and Goose Festival. Never a shortage of activities going on!
As you can see, your Kindersley Chamber of Commerce has been and continues to be busy and working hard to help our town and businesses. This community has been awesome in stepping up when needed and we salute you!
