There was something for everyone at the Watson Economic Development Spring into Watson event on June 2.
Chair of the Spring into Watson committee Mandy Green says they saw an increase in club demonstrations, which provided information as well as entertainment to visitors. For clubs, this was a way to get their name out into the community.
“You get to meet and make new contacts,” says Green.
Green says the Tai Kwan Do club held a board demonstration with active members of the club from kindergarten to adult breaking boards to demonstrate their skill. The Saskatchewan Arm Wrestling Association demonstration and information session also provided some fun and entertainment, says Green.
Food was also a big proponent of the day with a pancake breakfast, farmer’s market, barbecue lunch, and treats being available for visitors.
Events like these give residents of Watson and the surrounding communities the opportunity to get together, says Green, and a chance for the community to raise awareness about activities that are available.
“We want to make sure that everything we have to offer and everything around us as well gets enjoyed by everyone, not just us.”
