☕ Coffee Row Chronicles: Medals, Rink Upgrades, and a Fundraiser with Rope
The diner was humming, mugs clinking as the gang settled in. Anthony Huckabay’s medal was the first topic. Rita leaned in: “Anthony Huckabay's medal... forty years as a paramedic, and now a second bar to the Governor General’s Medal. That’s a lifetime of service.” Edna stirred her cup. “Forty years? I can’t even keep a toaster working that long. That’s commitment. ” Earl nodded. “Started right here in Gull Lake back in ’85. Proof small towns raise big‑hearted people.” Mabel s

Coffee Row Chronicles: Council Clarity, Community Perks, and Community Wellness
The smell of cinnamon buns was interrupted by Earl’s enthusiastic slam of a folded council report onto the café table. He waved it like a winning lottery ticket, grinning as the regulars looked up from their mugs. “Big night at council,” he declared. “They finally merged Economic Development and Tourism. One committee, less overlap.” Mabel peered over her crossword, eyebrow arched. “About time. Those two have been circling each other longer than cousins at a wedding dance.” E

Spotlight on the SWT Lyceum Theatre: Powered by People, Fueled by Community
For more than a century, the SWT Lyceum Theatre has been a gathering place in Gull Lake—a spot where families, friends, and neighbours come together to share stories on the big screen.

🏆 February Showdown Verdict: Pig Spleen vs. Supercomputer
Running Score: Pig Spleen 2—Weather Supercomputer 1 A frost‑covered prairie under a restless sky. On one side, a digital thermometer climbing into record territory. On the other, a humble pig spleen sitting beside a parka and a raincoat—because this is Saskatchewan, and we prepare for everything. After a February that felt like three seasons in 28 days, it’s time to settle Round Two of our winter weather showdown. We saw record‑breaking warmth, a polar vortex, and wind gusts

How Two Hitchhikers and a Gull Lake Constable Averted Highway Tragedy
On a cool Friday evening in September 1968—a Friday the 13th, no less—a routine patrol on Highway 1 turned into one of the most dramatic moments in the history of the Gull Lake RCMP detachment. Two 18‑year‑olds from Waterloo, Ontario, Dennis Bonn and Brian McLennan, were hitchhiking west toward British Columbia. Near Whitewood, a new Mercury Cougar pulled over. The driver introduced himself only as “Knobby,” said he was heading for Calgary, and offered them a ride. He was fri

What Holds a Small Town Together Isn’t Viral Noise—It's Us
A viral video and a wave of outside commentary can travel far faster than the truth, and this week the Lyceum Theatre found itself at the centre of a story that doesn’t reflect who we are or how we treat one another. In that video, the theatre, its volunteers, and several local residents are spoken about in ways that are unfair, inaccurate, and unworthy of the place we call home. Gull Lake isn’t perfect—no community is—but we are not a town where people are reduced to insults
