Hey, everybody! Reader here! Well, it’s Christmas Eve, and I get a couple of days off to celebrate the holidays, though it’ll be a blur, and not the most relaxing Christmas season I’ve had, but that’s totally okay. After work today, I’ll be firing up the tunes and hitting the road, to make the 4 […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here. For a few weeks now, we’ve been talking about the first-ever Legacy Co-op “Wonders of Winter, “presented by the Yorkton Lions Club out at the Yorkton Campground, just off York Road, as you come into the city on Highway 16. It’s the first year for the event, and we’ve been giving […]

Reader here, and once again, I’m thinking with my stomach! Tis the season for much holiday snacking, and one thing we always do around work, is have a staff Christmas potluck lunch. We usually try to have it the last Friday before everyone takes off for Christmas, so the most people are able to be […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here. As the Christmas decorations come out, and we all get ready to celebrate the holidays, I was reminded of some little Christmas traditions we have in my family, especially among me and my brothers. One is when getting the cranberries ready. If you’re able to get the whole thing to come […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and we’re knee-deep in Christmas movie season. There are all the classics, like “A Christmas Carol,” “It’s A Wonderful Life,” and “White Christmas,” to name a few.

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and I have a confession. This year, I admit I’ve been having a bit of trouble getting into the Christmas spirit. And for me, that’s tough. You see, I’m a Christmas kid. It’s my favourite time of year. I always feel good around the holidays, regardless of the hustle and bustle […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and I want to know… Have you ever had the feeling that somewhere along the line, you’ve angered forces beyond your control? I had that experience over the weekend, when I stepped outside to run some errands on Saturday morning. Upon walking up to the parking lot at the end of […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and I’ll admit it. I’ve got Lotto Fever! I’ve got my ticket for the Yorkton Exhibition $100,000 Cash Lottery, as well as tickets on the 50/50 draw, and I’m dreaming of getting that call on Monday afternoon, telling me I’m the winner of the 100K grand prize. Now, admittedly, if I […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and I just wrapped the first of four days down at the Gallagher Centre, where I’m on location for the Yorkton Exhibition $100,000 Cash Lottery. The crew working the phones were busy all day, as our listeners called in to make sure to get their tickets, to have a shot at […]

Hey, everybody! Reader here, and now that the calendar has flipped over to December, it’s really starting to feel like Christmas time is truly here. We had our staff Christmas party on Saturday night, and even though it was the last day of November, and December technically arrived during the revelry, I just have a […]
