KAMSACK - As the latest addition to the staff for the Town of Kamsack, Stephen Dutcheshen recently began his new position as Manager of Recreation and Community Development.
As a fourth-generation Kamsack resident and third-generation to be born-and-raised in Kamsack, Dutcheshen said he grew up playing most of the sports in and around the Kamsack area and is still involved in a number of local sports to this day.
Dutcheshen explained to the Kamsack Times that with his new position, his outlook and long-term goals are to keep up with grant applications – including federal, provincial, and local funding opportunities that will ultimately contribute to the growth and development of the community.
“The Broda Sportsplex will be receiving some new construction – hopefully starting this March running over the summer,” detailed Dutcheshen. “We have a few other plans of things we would like to see in the community, just nothing set in stone yet, thus not 小蓝视频 able to share all the details yet.”
When it comes to staying active in the time of COVID and flu season, Dutcheshen extends the following advice to Kamsack and area residents:
“Give space. Respect others. Share the space to the best you can.”
For those looking for ways to stay active and healthy, Dutcheshen points to a number of activities that are offered close to home.
“Right now we have free skating at an outdoor ice rink and free cross-country ski trails. Both get attended to once Public Works can get caught up from clearing all the snow we have had and the weather starts to warm up more. The KCI has Friday night soccer from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. There is also free public skating and shinny inside the Broda Sportsplex. Times can be viewed on the Town of Kamsack website under the ‘News & Events’ in the Broda Sportsplex Calendar.”
Dutcheshen offered that he is always keen to hear what Kamsack residents would like to see in the future in terms of recreational services and events.
“Kamsack is a great community that is always pushing to keep what we have in the sports and recreation sector as well, bringing new ideas to the table. If anyone has thoughts or ideas they can get a hold of me."
