We are planning this next season under the current guidance of the Government of Saskatchewan and will still be subject to any policy changes that arise. We will continue to provide open communication and ensure that we work with all attendees to make this come back season one to remember (for all the right reasons)!
MANY Details are still to be confirmed as there are multiple changes in the industry, so please bear with us as we navigate the new landscape. Details below mostly carry over however, we will be making changes to better fit the current scenario at hand. If you have any questions in this early period please reach out to us and we will do our best to answer ASAP.
Thank you!
