Cheers:
Cheers to the resilience and adaptability of the children in Estevan and area. They have had such a topsy-turvy year and have been able to go along with the changes and challenges presented to them. Some kids are so diligent when wearing masks within a group, even outside.
Cheers to T&T Rods for organizing the cruise that happened around Estevan on Saturday. It was good to have such an event, since we couldn’t have the wonderful annual show and shine north of the city.
Cheers to Gale Tytlandsvik for the time she has dedicated to the Garden Park on Fourth Street over the years. It looks great now, but it will look even better once the murals are complete.
Cheers to everyone who has had their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine so far, and to those who are now eagerly getting their second dose. It’ll be nice when the restrictions are finally lifted.
Cheers to the graduates of the Estevan Comprehensive School and the other high schools in the southeast region. It’s great to see that there has been some form of a graduation celebration this year, even if it’s not what people want.
Cheers to the Estevan Mercury for putting a spotlight on preschool graduates. You can tell how excited those kids are when you look at their smiling faces in the paper.
Jeers:
Jeers to the parents who are not teaching their young cyclists the rules of the road. Many are riding on the wrong side of the street, are hidden near parked vehicles and veer out in front of oncoming traffic. Others are riding bikes on sidewalks and zipping across intersections without looking or slowing down.
Jeers to the litter at the Estevan Comprehensive School’s parking lot. There are many garbage cans around the parking lot, so please use them.
