The Sask Recreation Awards pay tribute to the outstanding contributions of individuals, communities, and agencies who improved the quality of life for others through recreation in Saskatchewan.
We’re proud to celebrate award winners from across the province and admire the impact they make to ensure everyone has an opportunity to be active, get involved in programs, enjoy our parks, and connect with nature.
Each winner was celebrated with a trophy and contribution of $1,000.00 to support local recreation initiatives. Videos were also produced to recognize each recipient, and share stories of passion and commitment to improving the quality of life of their community through recreation.
