Toronto, ON (July 20, 2011) – You did it Estevan! After an intense inter-provincial battle, the southeastern Saskatchewan city has been declared the seventh winning community in the Kraft Celebration Tour.
As part of the Kraft Celebration Tour, Estevan hosts a special edition of SPORTSCENTRE featuring anchors Jay Onrait and Dan O’Toole when they broadcast live from the community on Thursday, Aug. 25 at 6 p.m. ET.
Estevan also receives a $25,000 community award from Kraft Canada that goes towards expanding the city’s three-year-old youth football program and repairing its football fields, which were recently damaged by devastating floods in the area.
Known as the Energy City, Estevan boasts large coal, oil, gas and power industries.
