Cheers:
Cheers to local restaurants who donate proceeds to local charities. Their generosity and hard work is commendable and the food is delicious.
Cheers to people who comply with wearing face masks while shopping. These are unprecedented times, and doing small things to help, without complaining, is appreciated. Keep supporting local businesses.
Cheers to the Estevan Bears U18 AAA team for managing to host a camp for its players despite all of the obstacles that were put in front of the team. There will be some good players in the first season.
Cheers to the Saskota Baseball League for the playoff format they had this year, and providing a way for fans of the teams to watch playoff baseball in their hometown this season.
Cheers to Habitat for Humanity for completing another home in Estevan, and for allowing families to have a suitable place to live.
Jeers:
Jeers to the owner of the Yorkshire terrier that sits on the front porch every morning barking incessantly at anything and everything around it, notably the front door. Please do the dog and the neighbours a favour and let the poor thing inside.
Jeers to the man in the large white vehicle that rapidly drove right through the three-way stop on Petterson Drive and Rooney Road. Nobody saw any identifying lights or markings to indicate it was an emergency vehicle.
Jeers to all the bicyclists who think stop signs and red lights are not intended for them. Then when you confront them, they quite easily extend a singular digit reply.
Jeers to all of the changes in the province’s back to school program and the uncertainty that it has caused for parents. Even though it’s a fluid situation, parents don’t know what will happen from one day to the next.
