Saskatoon Summer Players began as a group of dedicated amateurs working out of Knox United Church who mounted their first production, “Oklahoma”, in 1964. SSP has presented one “main-stage” musical in late June/early July every year since then, from time to time has produced a second smaller show, and since 2003 has also produced a series of reviews, the “Broadway Bash”, each February. SSP has always drawn on the considerable talents of amateur on-stage performers and off-stage volunteers from the community. All concerned have taken considerable pride in mounting shows of high quality and of professional standard.

SEMBEQ is an evangelical Baptist seminary based out of Montreal, Quebec. SEMBEQ was founded in 1973 in response to a lack of formal training to train up leaders. It is not a residential seminary, but one that works directly in and through local French Baptist churches, helping them train up pastors, evangelists, church planters, teachers and leaders from within their congregation. Churches were being planted, but the leaders and elders in the church had no formal seminary training and for them to leave their churches for four years would be out of the question. SEMBEQ’s main goal from the beginning was church based training—to train churches to train their leaders.

Sierra Club of Canada Foundation is a national charitable foundation that provides financial support for charitable work to the Sierra Club of Canada. Established in 1972, Sierra Club of Canada Foundation funds a wide range of environmental projects, from scientific research to environmental education. These funds are largely provided by individual donors and foundations who recognize that we all have a right to a safe and healthy environment with clean air, clean water, open space, wild lands and a healthy and diverse ecosystem. While the Foundation is autonomous and governed by its own Board of Directors, it works closely with the Sierra Club of Canada in pursuing its program goals.

In 1969, a small but dedicated group of British Columbians launched a campaign to protect the magnificent forests and lakes of the Nitinat Triangle and West Coast Trail on Vancouver Island. There were no Canadian environmental groups working on forest and wilderness issues at that time, so they joined forces with the US Sierra Club. That energetic group became the first Sierra Club affiliate in Canada, later joining the national Sierra Club of Canada when it was formed. 40 years on, Sierra Club local groups around B.C. defend old-growth forests and ecosystems, help combat global warming and safeguard our clean air and water. Sierra Club BC staff meet regularly with government and business to ensure conservation viewpoints are heard, and to provide input on policy and budget decisions that affect the environment. Our grassroots base, science-based policies and pragmatism have helped to protect millions of hectares of B.C. wilderness.
