Tuesday morning, Saskatchewan’s Lieutenant Governor presented 10 people in the province with the 2023 Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal during a ceremony at Government House.

In a news release, Russ Mirasty said, “The time and care these volunteers have given to causes ranging from youth, veterans’ and women’s issues to arts and culture, does not go unnoticed.”
