string(3422) "Teulon's commitment to its library goes back to 1953, when the Women's Institute of Teulon started bringing in books by train from the University of Manitoba. They created a mini library at the Agricultural Office in town, and when it came time to return the books, the Women's Institute volunteers would go door-to-door to retrieve any books that had not been returned, crate them, and then ship them back by rail to Winnipeg. The Women's Institute was so effective in managing the library that in 26 years only one book was ever lost.
In 1980, the library was given a room in the Teulon Collegiate, and finally in 1989, Teulon got its own stand-alone library. The library has been going strong since then in a wonderful location, right across from Teulon's elementary school, with 2,624 square feet of beautiful, well-lit space. In 1954, the library had 28 members, and today it has 1,008 members and a collection of 19,863 books. It also maintains strong partnerships across the community, including with the schools, Teulon's Green Acres Arts Centre, local daycares, seniors centres, churches, and the Lions Club.
The Teulon Library is more than just a library. It's really the community's living room, and it works to provide that comforting service to all of its patrons. There are places to gather, workshops to attend, programs to partake in, things to be learned, and, most of all, it's a safe space in Teulon for the 1,200+ patrons that visit it each month. Not only do members borrow books, but they also can use the free high-speed internet, and use the space for community meetings and gatherings. The monthly program and activity calendar is packed with events and activities every month for all ages. The space also features the work of talented local artists each month. Folks who used the library when they were children, then brought their children, who in turn are now bringing their children.
While the inside of the space is well-loved, the community wants to spruce up the outside of the library to offer even more to the community. While there is room inside for programming, the library often has to limit the number of participants because of space limitations. If the community could also host these activities outside, they could have more people at once during busy seasons, with nobody left out. The community hopes to develop a shaded area with a privacy fence, a pergola over top, fresh flowers and shrubs in planter boxes, storage benches, and tables and seating for workshops and activities. Apart from the many programs, people could also simply enjoy the spot with their friends, stop by to eat their lunch, or sit comfortably outside and read after they checkout their books. Finally, there is a simple sustainability initiative for the interior to replace the old fluorescents with LED bulbs to reduce energy use throughout the year.
Their Story Now
"The new LED lights are in! It is so much brighter in the library. The many folks who are coming out to our craft nights really notice the positive difference the lights make. And we are looking forward to lower electricity bills and the restful sleep that comes from knowing we are doing a little something more for the environment." - Clint Curle, South Interlake Regional Library Director

string(2032) "The Community Hall in Radisson, Saskatchewan started as the town's first electric light and power plant. Renovations began in 1919 and the building was completed in 1924. In 1930, a fire broke out in the power plant, which badly damaged the building. It was rebuilt with insurance money, and lumber supplied by the town was used to repair the floor, which the community's Athletic Club laid down. Afterwards, the club used the building for dances and town meetings, so the building then became known as the Athletic Hall. Decades later in 1971, it became the Pentecostal Church. During this time, the first meeting for the organization of a seniors club was held, resulting in the ’71 Seniors Club.
By 1975, seniors were sharing the space with the local youth group, and they received some grants to modernize the building. They installed plumbing, gas, power, paneling, new flooring, insulation, eavestroughs, a new roof, and stuccoed the building. In 1981, the club was officially renamed the "Radisson ’71 Seniors Club." To this date the Radisson ’71 Senior Club is still active in the community. The town of Radisson still owns of the building, but the seniors club are its custodians.
This hall is available to the community and surrounding rural municipality to rent. It's been used for weddings, anniversaries, funerals, meetings, birthdays, family gatherings, and garage sales — to mention a few. The hall has become the only gathering centre for the town, as the community no longer has access to a town hall due to its closure. Therefore, they are very desperate to maintain the integrity of the building — especially due to its age — to keep people in the small town. They want to fix up the building exterior and develop a more inviting outdoor gathering space for the whole community to enjoy.

string(2441) "The values of volunteerism, community, and sportsmanship are instilled in every level of activity in the Pinawa Club, making them part of the social fabric in Pinawa. The club offers a variety of curling activities and events, including drop-in curling, mixed and men's leagues, juniors programs, stick curling, bonspiels, an open house, and countless ice-time rentals. Volunteers help run make and maintain the ice, carry out administrative duties, and organize events and games.
On average, the Pinawa Club gets between 600 and 800 participants who benefit from the space in a season. However, that number grows to the thousands when you include the event spectators and patrons who dine in the club's restaurant. The Pinawa Curling Club Restaurant is a social gathering place for the community. It's also the town's only dining facility during the winter months. Not having curling programming nor its supporters could possibly result in the restaurant having to close during the winter, which would result in loss of jobs and impact the entire population of Pinawa.
In 2019, the space suffered a catastrophic ice plant failure, and then in 2020, there were failures with their headers. Thankfully, through fundraising, grant submissions, and the astonishing generosity of Pinawa and its surrounding communities, the club was able to replace all the failed equipment. When depleted of funds, the community found themselves unable to get any replacement bulbs for their 55-year-old lighting, as the bulbs used were no longer available. Luckily, the community sourced LED bulbs that would save them thousands of dollars compared to alternative installations, which would also work with the club's current fixtures.
Their Story Now
"The Pinawa Curling Club is so grateful and appreciative to Red River Mutual for approving our Spruce Up Your Story grant application. We are an aging curling club that has fallen on some pretty hard times in recent years due to our aging equipment and club. Thanks to this successful application, we are absolutely thrilled to have been able to update our lighting, and things are looking very bright for us now. It has made the world if difference for us." - Linda Gifford, Curling Director of the Pinawa Curling Club

string(1189) "The Ox Cart Station was originally a church. When it closed, the building was gifted back to the rural municipality of Sifton, which then gifted it to the Community Regional Development Board (CDB). The CDB is excited to bring new community and learning initiatives to its residents. In their community space, the CBD plans to offer programming for all ages and demographics. The Ox Cart Station has already begun hosting programs such as Mommy and Me, summer camps, food and safety courses, and a first aid and CPR courses. The space also hosts events, such as the local Winter Festival and Family Fun Day. Local businesses are also using the space for meetings.
The building needs basic repair and modern upgrades, including accessible washrooms, a new sidewalk and ramp, updated signage, a veranda, and new flooring and windows in the main room. Many people in the community still see this building as what it was, and not what it is. Changing the look will allow for people to see the new beginnings and opportunities this building has.

string(2851) "Nelson McIntyre Collegiate is a small high school in the heart of central Winnipeg, where greenspace is at a premium. The collegiate serves 350 high school students, 150 junior high practical arts students, and the communities of Norwood Flats, St. Boniface, and Glenwood. The high school hosts typical events year-round, but also community building events, too. These include culturally relevant Indigenous ceremonies, fall feasts, and spring rebuilding events — to name a few.
The school serves a diverse neighbourhood, including many families who live in poverty, and more than 35% who identify as Indigenous. The community is also multicultural, with more than 60% identify as BIPOC. The school's community respects and promote diversity, and wants connection and to learn each other’s stories. The community works hard to create this culture, and wants to improve the spaces in which they can do this work.
Currently, the school has a community garden, but they need to move it to accommodate the newly developed Indigenous Learning Classroom. This year, the school will also be hosting a fall feast, and plans to use produce from the gardens — and eventually, fruit from the orchards. This feast will bring together families in all the surrounding communities to reconnect in person after the pandemic, to celebrate through a multi-cultural lens, to welcome back alumni, and to greet new families. The school also regularly host smaller events in the garden space. For example, Indigenous Ceremonies and teachings for groups of 25 or so people is a more common occurrence. Native plants and medicines, along with orchard trees and shrubs, are part of the landscape. The community gardens are part of these gatherings, as they form part of the land-based learning that goes with them.
Nelson McIntyre Collegiate is looking to rejuvenate the community garden and gathering space. This includes raised garden beds, trees, a cistern for irrigation, and compost, as well as outdoor seating to promote community gathering.
Their Story Now
"Our hope is that we will have the garden and the orchard areas will be landscaped mid-October 2022. Plus the students will be building the new garden boxes and seating this school year. Our plan is to have the area 'ready to go' by spring 2023." - Charlene Smallwood, community member and former principal of Nelson McIntyre Collegiate.

Nearby is Katie’s Cottage — a home away from home that provides families with a welcoming place to stay while their loved ones are in the hospital. Guests can enjoy the cottage's outdoor spaces to find peace, refresh, or take a break away from the hospital. The cottage also provides games, teddy bears, blankets, and movies for guests to enjoy.
Katie’s Cottage is a service provided by Katie Cares: A charity started by a local woman named Kaitlyn, who as a young girl, was diagnosed with cancer. Today, Katie Cares is devoted to making the lives of people relying on hospitals a little bit easier. The cottage's outdoor renovation project will improve the beauty of the space and make it easier for the community to use.

string(1453) "In 1928, a spot near Main Street in Lake Lenore, Saskatchewan was flooded with water being hauled by horses from the nearby lake. When the water froze, community members would skate and play hockey long into the night. The town came alive in the darkness of winter, as it was primarily a farming community with not much else to do. In 1961, the community came together, as it always does, and built the John Doherty Memorial Arena: A natural ice dome structure that you can find in all small towns across Canada. It became the place to be and hosted a bustle of activity with hockey teams, ice dancing, broomball, and curling becoming the source of activity for everyone in the region.
Over the years, a lot has changed, but the one constant has always been community. Today, the arena is still entirely run by volunteers, with community members stepping forward to donate their time and energy to keep it going for future generations. Activities, schedules, and families have gotten busier, so the community sometimes seeks out professional help for larger projects. Community fundraisers are plentiful, and most recently, they raised enough funds to install LED lights on the ice surface.
This year, the arena’s ice surface paint needs to be re-done, as it hasn't been touched since the mid 1980s.

string(2681) "The Ness Creek Site, home of the Jack Millikin Centre, is a 320-acre site situated in the mixed boreal forest about five kilometres west of Prince Albert National Park. The Ness Creek community began in 1991 when like-minded individuals came together to host the first annual Ness Creek Music Festival. In 2003, the Ness Creek community decided that a four-season centre was needed to facilitate events at the site.
In 2008, the Jack Millikin Centre, Ltd. was registered as a nonprofit organization with two main goals: To design and build the Jack Millikin Centre, and to develop arts- and culture-based programming at the site. The centre was named after a local community icon, Jack Millikin, who was a beloved Big River elder. Jack, who emigrated to Canada from Scotland, devoted his life to his family and community. He was an incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist and volunteered his music for decades in the community. He was also a humble man. For Jack, community and volunteerism came first. The centre named its building in his honour, but also to remember and emulate those values he held so dearly.
Since the centre’s construction in 2015, the site has developed into a four-season mecca for the thousands of people who attend the multitude of cultural, artistic, and ecological events held annually. It's home to four major festivals, a biennial international artist collaboration, art camps, music camps, national blacksmithing conferences, ecological land-based learning programs, cultural-sensitivity workshops, 20 kilometres of trails for cross-country skiing, hiking, cycling, snowshoeing, horseback riding, and many other events.
Now, the centre has become a beautiful 4,700 square foot building. The centre was built using a post-and-beam frame construction with locally sourced timbers, has highly efficient spray foam insulation (R-40) throughout, uses a 124-panel solar array on-site that produces 47,000 kilowatt hours of green power each year, and uses a highly efficient wood boiler that can heat up to 12,000 square feet. The space also has a variety of committees and volunteers that help keep it running year-round.
As a final step, the community needs to finish the trim on the windows and doors on the centre, helping ensure all their hard work does not go to waste, and that the space is kept energy efficient and accessible for years to come. If they are able to secure the funds for the materials, they'll have amazing volunteers complete much of the labour needed for the project.

string(1105) "Concern for Youth (CFY) moved to their current space in summer 2020 to provide a better location more central to schools, public transit, and communities, and to offer more amenities like staff offices, programming storage, and a greenspace in the yard. However, CFY's basement is currently unfinished, but has the potential to offer more programming.
When CFY provides programming for older youth, they often have to rent out spaces — particularly for cooking — which is costly. The surrounding community itself also lacks available spaces for youth organizations seeking programming, especially flexible spaces that can grow and evolve with the needs and interests of the people they serve. The community also needed more spaces where youth feel welcomed to hang out with their friends and to be messy, creative, and silly — something the youth themselves requested through their annual Youth Forum.
CFY plans to renovate a portion of their basement to strengthen their partnerships, strengthen their programming, increase opportunities for youth, and better use the space that is available."

string(1424) "The Carrot River Community Hall is, like in most rural Saskatchewan communities, the community hub where all life events and community engagement happens! It's the standard location for all community events, including fundraisers, concerts, award ceremonies, banquets, community garage sales, tradeshows, indoor walking, and more. It's a space used by all ages, families, and community groups. It's also a mainstay in the community: a place full of memories for current generations, and a place where future generations will come to make their own memories.
With 946 residents in the town of Carrot River, and an additional 942 residents in the surrounding municipality of Moose Range, this community hall sees thousands of individuals on an annual basis. In 2020, the area was hit with a disastrous storm that damaged many properties in the region, including the hall's roof.
As there were other repair projects in the community that took priority, the Carrot River Community Hall repair project was initially set aside, and municipal staff patched what they could to keep the facility operating. The time came where patching was no longer an option, and the community had to repair the unexpected damage to maintain the building and move forward as a community together.
