This past year we have a number of new residents in town and would like to say Welcome to all of them. We invite all the new residents to a Barbeque on Friday, August 6th at the Gazebo in the Park. It is pot luck with the burgers and buns being supplied. We hope to see all the new residents there.
Over the next few months the Economic Development Board will be presenting all the new residents from January 2010 with Welcome Baskets.
We hope that you are enjoying Pangman and hope to see you at the Barbeque and other town functions.

On Sunday, June 27, 2010 was the 5 km fundraiser walk for Diabetes. It was a beautiful morning for the walk. Fifteen (15) or more people turned out to walk and over $1,200.00 was raised for Diabetes research. We hope that we can make this a yearly fundraiser to help family and friends who are living with Diabetes.
Thank you to Wendy Colbow and family for planning this fundraiser. Also thanks to all those who came out to walk, the Ambulance and Fire Department, the Recreation Board, the Co-op and to the community for all their support.
On June 19th, 2010, at the Radio Television News Directors Association (RTNDA) National Conference in Edmonton, Dan McIntosh was awarded the Dave Rogers Award for the short feature on CTV Regina entitled “A School Harvest”.
This short feature aired in November 2009 and it focused on Charity Farms, a group of local farmers from Pangman and area who planted, grew, harvested and sold the grain as a fundraiser for the Pangman School.
Congratulations to Dan McIntosh, the CTV Regina team and Charity Farms.
At the last Economic Development Board meeting the concern for a local hairdresser was brought up. Many ideas were discussed and today the details have been finalized.

On Saturday, June 12, 2010 the Relay for Life Team. Cancer Kicking Militia from Pangman, put on a BBQ, Bake Sale and Garage Sale. Funds raised at this event are being donated to the Relay for Life.
The fundraiser was to be held at the Gazebo, but it was moved indoors at the Community Center due to the unpredictable weather. The weather did co-operate and it turned out to be a nice day which brought out many people to the event.
The Pangman team of Cancer Kicking Militia has 10 members, and they will be participating at the Relay for Life in Ogema, Saskatchewan, on Friday, June 18th, 2010 starting at 7:00 p.m. and ending on Saturday, June 19th at 7:00 a.m. Everyone is welcome to come to the Relay for Life.
The team would like to thank everyone for their support, including those who donated baking, items for the garage sale and helped out at the Fundraiser.
Everyone is welcome to join us at our fundraiser to raise money for diabetes research. We will be having a fundraising 5 km walk on Sunday, June 27th, 2010. Registration will be at 8:30 a.m. at the Community Centre on main street and we will start out around 9:00 a.m.
Our route will be along Highway 13 to the junction of highways 6 and 13, then back to Pangman. There will be drinks and snacks along the way.
Pledge forms and donation drop off will be at the Co-op Grocery Store and the Pangman Radius Credit Union or contact Elizabeth (or Wendy) Colbow at 442-2192.
