SOUTHEAST SASKATCHEWAN - The snowstorm that is hitting southeast southeast Saskatchewan this weekend continues to lead to the postponement or cancellation of events.
The Orpheum Theatre in Estevan was to host a concert by PIGS: Canada's Pink Floyd band on April 23 as part of PIGS' Coming Back to Life tour. In a post on its Facebook page, the Orpheum said it was notified by Ghostfinger Productions that the concert has to happen at a later date due to inclement weather and winter storm warnings in southern Saskatchewan and safety concerns for the band.
Tickets will be reimbursed at the Orpheum or can be held until another date is confirmed.
One of the biggest postponements is the Saskatchewan Volunteer Firefighters' Association's spring firefighter training school in Carlyle. It has been pushed back one week to April 29-May 1. Organizers said that they made this decision for the safety of the firefighters. They encourage people to remain off the roads during a storm, so they are doing the same.
A few fundraisers slated for April 23 have been postponed. The Estevan Wildlife Federation's fundraising dinner and banquet, slated for April 23 at the Wylie-Mitchell Building, will be April 30. Also delayed a week to April 30 are the Souris-Moose Creek Wildlife Federation's dinner at the Oxbow Rink, and the More 2000 event at the Harry O Memorial Arena in Midale.
The Weyburn soccer kickoff with the University of Regina women’s soccer team was to happen April 23. A make-up date has not been announced.
