On August 30, the Portage College Voyageurs announced Claude Bolton as the Head Coach for the new Men’s and Women’s Soccer Program.

The Cold Lake Wings’ first season is fast approaching. Head coach for the Cold Lake Wings Johnathan Aitken sees the team’s first season as an exciting opportunity, and is looking forward to what it holds.

The Bonnyville Jr. A Pontiacs have started their exhibition season on an even playing field, following a win and loss against the Lloydminster Bobcats.

The Cold Lake Wings are a recent addition to a brand new hockey league, and will ice a team for the 2018-19 season.

Players from across the country hit the ice with one goal in mind, becoming a Bonnyville Jr. A Pontiac. The Pontiacs hosted their main camp last week, where they select players from across Canada to help build their roster.

Kikino's Jamie Schell came out of the first round of the Lac La Biche Golf Club's Championships last Saturday on top of the leader board with an impressive two over par 74.

The Rodeo Mile is set for its 17th year, with the race set to take place prior to the rodeo parade on Sept. 1. The quarter mile race for children aged nine and under kicks off at 9:45 a.m., and it runs from Ideal Carpets to the UFO landing pad.

"Let's rodeo!" This call to action was the signature phrase always delivered by the late Dorine Kuzma at the start of every rodeo event in St. Paul over the years.

There’s a lot in store for the Bonnyville Jr. A Pontiacs. Head coach Rick Swan believes the Pontiacs have a great season a head of them, and has been working hard to assemble a strong team.

Local teams went after their goal and brought home the gold. The Bonnyville Dyanmo U13 and the Lakeland United U15 soccer teams came out on top at provincials. The Dynamos have won three provincial silver medals in the past.
