    2017-18 ANNUAL REPORT His Honour, the Honourable W. Thomas Molloy, Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan May it Please Your Honour: I respectfully submit the Annual Report of the Government House Foundation for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister Responsible The Foundation supports Government House by raising funds to invest into the for the Provincial preservation of this important Provincial Heritage Property and National Capital Commission Historic Site. The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister of Central Services Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission Legislative Building Regina SK S4S 0B3 Dear Mr. Cheveldayoff: It is my privilege to submit the annual report of the Government House Foundation for the year ending March 31, 2018. During 2016-2017, the trustees had engaged a consulting firm to consider options for fundraising. The consultant’s report, submitted to the board in March 2017, advised against holding a capital campaign at this time. It recommended instead a number of measures to increase community awareness of Government House and the Foundation and to develop the Foundation’s organizational structure, before embarking on further fund-raising activities. Accordingly, in 2017-2018 the Foundation, with the help of a professional facilitator, reviewed its mandate, structure, goals and strategic priorities. A fund-raising committee of the board assessed the potential and the means for attracting donations towards the capital needs of Government House. The Foundation also initiated quarterly meetings with the other partners in Government House – the Government House Historical Society, the Office of the Lieutenant Governor, and the Provincial Capital Commission – to coordinate activities on behalf of the House and offer mutual support.

In order to give them that level playing field, the Edmonton Sport Council would like your support in developing a Canadian Sport Centre (CSC) in Edmonton. The concept of a CSC began more than 15 years ago with a pilot centre in Calgary. Since that time, the concept of dedicated multi-sport training and support facilities for athletes and coaches has also proven beneficial in Victoria, Vancouver, Saskatoon/Regina, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and Atlantic Canada. While each Centre is unique in its facilities and scale of services, all share a common mission and vision.
