Heads Up, Villagers - We're Flushing Hydrants!

It's time to give our water system a spring cleaning! Crews will be flushing hydrants on Tuesday, May 26 on the west side of the Village Office, including Edgewood & Wednesday, May 27 on the east side of the Village Office. You may notice brief drops in pressure or slightly discoloured water - it's all part of the process.

A few helpful tips:

💧Use water sparingly on those days between 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
👕Hold off on laundry - unless you're going for that rustic, rust-tinted look
🪣Fill some water jugs in advance for drinking and cooking
💦Run cold taps if your water looks off - things should clear up quickly

Thanks for helping keep our Village water fresh and flowing!

⚠️Reminder to Residents
& Visitors ⚠️

The Village has recently received reports from different property owners regarding ATV's and other vehicles being driven through private yards, and lots, resulting in damage to trees, landscaping, and personal belongings.

While we understand everyone is excited to enjoy the nice weather and riding season, driving through or using private property without permission is not acceptable. Please stay on designated roads and approved areas only.

We ask that everyone please be respectful of private property and remember that yards, lots, and green spaces are not riding areas or public play areas unless permission has been given by the property owner. And a reminder that motorized vehicles are not allowed in any Village park/greenspace or the walking path.

We appreciate everyone doing their part to keep our community respectful, safe and enjoyable for all residents.                                                                                  May 21, 2026             

                                       May 15, 2026                   

Just a friendly reminder that as per Bylaw No. 4-23 "A Bylaw to Regulate Outdoor Water Usage"....Standard Water Restrictions are in in effect as of May 1st until October 31st. with Wednesdays being "Waterless Wednesday", no outside use of water from the Village's distribution system use is allowed.

Thank you for your cooperation to conserve water!                                    
                                      May 15, 2026                   

**UPDATE**
Repairs have been completed and the road is re-opened! Thank you for your patience and cooperation!                                         
                                    May 14, 2026                   

🚧 Dust control and street sweeping are coming this Wednesday, May 13 — assuming Saskatchewan weather cooperates for once.

Please ensure all vehicles, trailers, garbage bins, and any other storage items are removed from roads and rights-of-way prior to work beginning to allow crews full access and help ensure the work can be completed efficiently & safely.

Thanks for doing your part in keeping the community clean!

Should the weather not cooperate, we will advise of any schedule changes.

Coexisting with Wildlife: Coyote Awareness

The Village has received reports of coyotes. Encounters with wildlife - including coyotes - are a natural part of life in our area. Coyotes are highly adaptable and activity may increase in spring/early summer due to denning and pup season.

While we understand that sightings can be concerning, please note that the Village does not have authority or the resources to trap or remove wildlife. Wildlife primarily falls under provincial jurisdiction, specifically through the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment. Our role is to help monitor sightings and share safety tips.....click HERE for more.
