Council In the Community - Safety at the SPOT

4/26/2023

 
PictureAmanda Wood, Community Relations Coordinator
Who says safety can't be fun?

​The Saskatchewan Safety Council hosted a community safety weekend on April 15th and 16th in Regina at the Southland Mall. This event was open for the public to stop by The SPOT, an open storefront inside the mall, to interact with our Saskatchewan Safety Council team in a fun, family friendly environment.

​This free community event was a huge success, welcoming more than 400 children and their families over the 2-day weekend event. Council Staff and Community volunteers hosted interactive activities such as: Plinko, giant Jenga, an ATV safety matching game, a superhero colouring contest, and the crowd favourite… face painting! For those who chose to enter the colouring contest, they had the opportunity to win one of three gift baskets filled with injury prevention resources, swag items, and a gift card to the Southland Mall. Special thanks to the Southland Mall for providing this prize!

​​Members of our training team were on the scene, including motorcycle and ATV instructors. These recreational vehicle gurus set up live displays, featuring a motorcycle and ATV, ready to talk two and four wheels with any recreational vehicle enthusiasts who dropped by. Remember, we are always looking for paid instructors to help us run our Regina and Saskatoon courses. If you’re interested in joining our team, email us at [email protected].

​Colouring Contest

We chose three lucky winners from each age category (5-7, 8-10, 11 and up) in our Safety Superhero colouring contest. As a take-home activity, each contest participant received a youth-oriented ATV and Motorcycle colouring sheet which contained important safety information about each recreational vehicle.

We would like to thank all volunteers and Saskatchewan Safety Council staff who helped make this event one to remember! Feedback received from parents and children was outstanding. All those who attended expressed their appreciation for the variety of activities and take-home materials.

The Les Donnelly Scholarship annually provides financial assistance to a post-secondary student who is a resident of Saskatchewan and has contributed to health and safety in their community.

In 2022, three recipients were awarded the Les Donnelly Scholarship. Laura was awarded a $3,000 scholarship, Kyler $1,000, and Hikari also $1,000.

Kyler was the first student to ever complete the Career Safety Education Special Project Credit at his school. Over one semester, he spent over 100 hours researching workplace safety and completing safety courses. 26 of them!

Our three recipients are shining examples of this dedication to community injury prevention. We hope that Laura, Kyler, and Hikari, continue to make a difference to the health and safety in their community and wish them all the best in their educational journey!

Know of an aspiring post-secondary student in your community who has a passion for health & safety? Download an application form, and learn more about the Les Donnelly Scholarship here.
