Cheers:
Cheers to the wonderful people who cleared off their sidewalks so quickly following the huge dump of snow this week. Newspaper carriers in particular appreciate the gesture.
Cheers to the young men on the Power Dodge Estevan Bruins who helped make a boy’s time at the Affinity Place track memorable both times he’s been there. He was given two pucks and lots of waves.
Cheers to all those who worked day and night to get the water restored to those on Maple Bay and other areas affected by water main breaks.
Cheers to all the staff that committed their time to the Estevan Student Basketball Association on Monday nights, and to coach Kevin Kobitz for his Club Thunder basketball program.
Cheers to everybody who supported the Kinsmen and Kinettes Telemiracle 42 on the weekend. It’s great to see record-setting support for Saskatchewan people.
Jeers:
Jeers to those who were driving too aggressively on Sunday and Monday during the snowstorm. It made driving more dangerous for everybody else.
Jeers to those who have left their vehicles parked on the street during snow-clearing efforts, making it more difficult for snow plows to clean the streets.
Jeers to people who have yet to clear the snow from their sidewalks. The worst of the snow stopped Monday. It’s been more than three days. Shovel the sidewalks.
Jeers to the latest round of thefts in our community, including the theft of a sea can in Lampman.
Jeers to those who complain about the number of water main breaks in the city, and then turn around and complain about the increase to the infrastructure fee. The infrastructure fee is a better system than the local improvement.
