Batter up and plan to attend the City of Saskatoon's Annual Civic Pancake Breakfast this morning!

Time: Breakfast served 7:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.
Location: Held outside in Civic Square at 23^rd Street, beside City Hall

As always, all proceeds from this important community fundraiser will be donated to United Way Saskatoon & Area for all the great work they do in our community. Mayor Charlie Clark, City Councillors and other celebrity pancake flippers from our community will be in attendance! Bring your friends and come downtown this morning!

We have an exciting lineup today including Saskatoon Police Service vehicle displays, an entertainment stage with various ethnic dancers including a tribute to Ukraine, Métis fiddlers, musicians, furry mascots, the always anticipated and fun-to-watch team relay race (8:30 a.m. – 9:30 a.m.), public engagement booth, and more!

New this year: You can help pay it forward through the Act of Kindness Board!

Since we've not had this important fundraiser in a couple of years, we're hoping we can all help pay it forward with an extra push for kindness through our collective donations. The Saskatoon City Employees Credit Union and the City of Saskatoon have partnered to bring an Act of Kindness Board to this year's Civic Pancake Breakfast. You’ll have the option to purchase an extra $7 ticket to donate to someone in need of a hot breakfast today!

The City of Saskatoon is proud to host this annual zero-waste event with compostable, recyclable, and reusable supplies.

In advance, we thank all our valued sponsors who helped to make this fundraising event possible, successful, and sure to be a well-attended community event!

All are welcome!  Hope to catch you on the flip side at today’s pancake breakfast!

The City of Saskatoon is preparing for a temporary closure of the Saskatoon Field House to improve the user experience at this popular leisure facility.

This summer, the track and field surface will be repainted to repair the lines that are beginning to wear off. The City has been working with the floor manufacturer and contractor to implement a long-term solution that will resolve the issue of paint flaking and not adhering to the floor surface.

 For the maintenance to take place, the facility will be closed as follows:   

• June 23 to July 13: Track closed 
• July 4 to 11: Full facility closure.  For the health and safety of patrons and staff, the facility will be closed during the painting process to allow the paint product to cure and for the scents from the product to be minimized prior to public use. 
• July 12: Facility, fitness room, and meeting rooms reopen
• July 14: Track reopens (walking only)
• July 24: Racquet sports resume

Patrons are encouraged to try out the City’s other indoor tracks during this time. The Shaw Centre (122 Bowlt Crescent) offers a three-lane, 165 metre Hamm Walking Track for walking and light jogging and the Terry Fox Track (150 Nelson Road, located inside the SaskTel Sports Centre) boasts a two-lane, 365-metre track.  For additional Leisure Centre options, visit saskatoon.ca/leisurecentres.

Drop-in program information including facility, fitness and weight room hours, public swim sessions and fitness programs, for the six indoor Leisure Centres, is listed on Leisure Online.

The City takes pride in being able to house a high-performance track for the community and competitive athletes to enjoy and appreciates your understanding as we work towards a long-term solution to this issue.
