✅ SASKATCHEWAN CHALLENGE CUP - DONE!
Wow! What an incredible few days! The Sask Challenge Cup was an absolute success, and there are SO many people to thank for making it happen. 💚
First and foremost, a huge thank you to our small but mighty committee who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this event to life:
👏 Andrea Kozan, RAS Executive Director
👏 Kim Byrns, Team Sask CWG Manager
👏 Carrie Mandzuk, RAS Technical Director
Together, this team set the bar HIGH for the Challenge Cups to come!
🙌 Our incredible event volunteers!
Pam Harmon - our woman on the ground! From coordinating and scheduling minor officials to making sure things were running smoothly throughout the event, Pam was everywhere. If you were at the rink, you definitely saw her!
Karen Wiens - our refueling station superstar! Karen did an amazing job keeping our athletes and participants fueled and ready to go, both on and off the ice. 💪🥛
Neil Stang & Barry Tendler - our facility go-to guys! These two were always on the move—moving scaffolding, cutting sticks, helping with whatever needed to be done, and making sure the facilities were ready for our teams. You name it, they did it!
🎥 Our Livestream Crew
A huge thank you to Todd Hunt, Dan Thorson and Peter Bell for bringing the Challenge Cup to ringette fans watching from home. And to all of our amazing commentators who shared their ringette knowledge, insight and enthusiasm throughout the games-thank you! You helped make the livestream experience even better for everyone watching from afar. 👏
🏨 Ramada Plaza & Paradigm Charter Bus Lines
A BIG shout-out to the Ramada Plaza and Paradigm for being so accommodating to all of our teams. Your hospitality, flexibility and service helped make the experience that much better for our athletes, coaches and staff. We truly appreciate you!
And, of course, thank you to everyone who played a part - our minor official volunteers, Co-operator’s facility staff, sponsors, teams, coaches, managers, parents and fans. Events like this don’t happen without a village.
THANK YOU to everyone who helped make the Saskatchewan Challenge Cup such a huge success!!
