Cheers:
Cheers to the SARCAN staff, especially assistant manager Rebekah Seivewright. They were quick and efficient. She brought a chair out for one person’s dad while he was waiting for a customer to haul in his and the neighbours' recycling.
Cheers to Steam-Est Industries for providing and maintaining the port-a-potty at the Chamney Family Running Track near the Estevan Comprehensive School. It is always clean and well-stocked.
Cheers to the person who paid for a group’s Sunday breakfast at The Flats. The people went to pay their bills and the waitress told them that someone had already paid for all of their food.
Cheers to Shannon Wanner and the City of Estevan’s parks crew. The flower pots around town look amazing.
Cheers to the keepers of the Estevan Leisure Centre's grounds and parking lot. No weeds or garbage. They’re clean, have great flower pots, beds, trees and shrubs. It's very well done and a credit to the workers.
Cheers to the businesses mandating masks for all staff and customers. While there have been few COVID cases in the southeast lately, those businesses looking out for the public’s safety should be rewarded.
Jeers:
Jeers to the dog owners that don’t pick up after their dog along the road to the graveyard. It’s totally disrespectful when someone is making their way to visit a lost loved one.
Jeers to not being notified of coming events in the city. The monthly classic car show and cruise night were not advertised and people only knew about them after they occurred.
Jeers to the restrictions put in place for the Estevan Motor Speedway’s crowds. In a grandstand with 1,500 people, you can safely accommodate 400-500 people while still respecting social distancing.
