It’s been amazing to see the support and excitement for Spruce Up Your Story grow. Our purpose is to make a positive impact in the lives of our customers and communities, and we’re grateful to see the same mindset reflected in cities and towns across the Prairies. 

This year, we received over 300 submissions – that’s a record all time high for Spruce Up Your Story!

From the over 300 submissions, we’re excited to share the 10 winning spaces in communities across Manitoba and Saskatchewan. We’ve personally connected with each of the recipients and we can’t wait to get more involved and help “spruce up” these spaces to reflect the vibrant communities they are a part of.
