Well, Saturday had its ups and downs.
The day started at a great little breakfast place right close to the arena where we had the chance to meet a few more wonderful Sooians … does that work? Then off to the arena for opening ceremonies. It was great to be introduced as Team Saskatchewan for the first time! The highlight of the opening ceremonies was definitely a speech delivered by the Chair of the Sandra Schmirler Foundation, Alan Hodgins. I am not sure there were many dry eyes in the building as Alan did a wonderful job of reminding us all what an amazing woman Sandra was. It has been ten years since Sandra passed and since that time the Foundation has raised over a million dollars to help babies in need. We are so happy to be assisting with the telethon tomorrow – we will be on the phones from 10:30 – 11:30, so please call in and give generously to this great cause.
