The 31 S T Annual
THE 31ST ANNUAL NOVEMBER 10, 2020 NOVEMBER 10, 2020 MASTER OF CEREMONIES Mary Taylor-Ash CEO Tourism Saskatchewan PRESENTER Norm Beug Chair Tourism Saskatchewan Board of Directors 2 NOVEMBER 10, 2020 SASKATCHEWAN TOURISM AWARDS OF EXCELLENCE More than 30 years ago, Saskatchewan’s tourism sector began paying special tribute to leadership and achievement in the industry – to businesses and individuals who made exceptional contributions to tourism and demonstrated that success and fulfilment come with being true to your dreams, proud of your home and eager to treat guests to remarkable Saskatchewan experiences. The Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence Gala has become a yearly showcase of achievement, bringing together representatives from every corner of the province and from a diverse range of businesses and attractions to celebrate the accomplishments of their colleagues in the industry. Originally scheduled to take place on April 2 in Regina, the 31st annual event was cancelled, along with the HOST Saskatchewan Conference, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With the cancellation of both industry gatherings, the announcement of the 12 Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence recipients and three Tourism Builders was postponed. Through the use of technology and adoption of a new virtual format, members of Saskatchewan’s tourism industry are now able to gather from afar to honour those outstanding businesses and people who have gone above and beyond to deliver superior service and experiences. Join the celebration as the Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence shine a spotlight on the commitment and hard work of veteran operators, as well as the innovative spirit of young entrepreneurs, and broaden understanding of efforts that yield success and, ultimately, position Saskatchewan as a more inviting and competitive destination. -

Saskcultu Membership Director 2018 Culture in Saskatchewan
SASKCULTU MEMBERSHIP DIRECTOR 2018 CULTURE IN SASKATCHEWAN Culture is defined in many different ways. The word culture often refers to the particular values, beliefs, knowledge and traditions of a group of people. It is also used to describe the everyday life and behavior of people that flows from their beliefs. SaskCulture defines culture as “a dynamic system of acquired elements, with values, assumptions, conventions, beliefs and rules through which members of a group relate to each other and the world.” Culture defines who we are as a people; keeping alive our past, reflecting our values, articulating our dreams and fostering pride in who we are. It proclaims our existence and identity to the world. Arts Art is the expression of inspiration and imagination, from individual to collective, from grassroots to professional, and institution. Art reflects our culture, embraces our past, provides a window to our future to examine ourselves and our experiences, and transmits humanity’s knowledge of the world. The arts engage people as audience, creators or interpreters through access and education, and foster traditional to emerging art forms. Heritage Heritage is what we have received from the past. It shapes our present identity and provides insight for our future. Within the scope for SaskCulture, heritage includes a range of activities in the areas of stewardship, preservation, research, education and engagement. These activities exhibit a sensitivity to the Indigenous natural environment; the impact of the interaction between human activity and natural environments; and differing perspectives regarding objects, ideas, places and traditions. Multiculturalism Multiculturalism represents the openness to experiencing and celebrating cultural differences within the Canadian context. -
