26 3^rd Ave NW, Preeceville

 

Preeceville is a town I am proud to call home. It is an excellent place to raise a family, retire or own a vacation cottage. The town has a number of fun events each year and with the abundance of lakes, rivers, parks and outdoor adventure in the area it's a great family attraction. Whether you're here on business or visiting friends and family, check out our Main Street and our many events over the summer.

Preeceville is a small but progressive community with a strong volunteer base, generous friendly people and a strong business and service core.

Working with our neighboring communities we hold a number of events each year showcasing our hospitality while raising funds for our health care facility. Our funding campaign has met with huge success in the past 12 years and with our hospital building project now finished, I invite you to take part in the fun, attend, donate or support our efforts.

Our other focus as a community is recreation and activities for our youth. How we provide for our seniors and how we teach our youth, balanced with quality of life for the rest of our population, is what Preeceville and area is all about. We are proud to be a community in Saskatchewan.

My belief in this community and the way we care has enabled us to bring happiness and opportunity to each other. So what would that look like? To me, it is your local government playing a role in creating community resources to improve housing, recreation and healthy active life styles. In this community we all enjoy that safe quality of life.  This care home is a great example of that. And from what you can see today, one of our goals has been met. A big thank you to all involved. We are all very, very happy today.

So how does the Care Home fit into the Community? Well they have had a number of tours already ranging for the nursing school to us today. They are involved and are supporting our Birthday this summer by baking a number of desserts for the supper and opening.

 

This summer join us in Preeceville for our 100th Birthday, July 6 & 7th.
