10 Assiniboia Times, Assiniboia Saskatchewan -- September 3, 2021
Family fun, celebrating past during Coronach Street Festival Submitted by Wes Bloom For organizers of the first-ever Old Coronach Street Festival, held Saturday, August 28, it turned out to be almost perfect. It was a special day of family fun set aside to honour and celebrate the past, present, and future of this tough, resilient, little prairie town. Attendance far exceeded all expectations and if attendance is any indication, the future of Coronach looks bright. Organizers of the event certainly did their part, the weatherman finally cooperated, and citizens of the south country happily responded by arriving in droves to lend their support. It was a day reminiscent of the good old days when everyone showed up in town on Saturday to get their mail, do their shopping, and spend quality time visiting with
family and friends. According to organizers of this year’s festival, nearly 1,000 people showed up to enjoy the day. In an interview, event coordinator Hannah Cook said, “The festival was a huge success. The rain cleared, the sun came out, and so did the people. It was really great to see everyone visiting, and kids enjoying the activities.” The Old Coronach Street Festival, as it is
so aptly called, certainly lived up to its name. It was a full, jam-packed day of events and fun activities for the whole family. Events and special activities included: an old fashioned street market, a classic car show, scavenger hunts, blacksmith demonstrations, axe throwing, bouncy-castles for the children, an onsite street artist, and an Escape Room for everyone at the Community
Hall. Food vendors were present and busy all day. Other events included: kite building at the Legion hall; new wall mural unveiling and ribbon-cutting ceremony; live theatre and history performances by a Saskatoon Theatre Company; and documentary film screenings of “Lift, Spur” by Radville film-maker Kristin Catherwood at the Legion hall. This short, 29 minute film, features three young
teenage friends and rodeo cowboys from the Coronach area. The film’s producer/director, and young cowboys featured in the film, were all on hand to answer questions that arose from the screenings. Forty-two people attended the first screening, and 25 were in attendance for the second. “The best part of the day was seeing Coronach bustling with people,” organizer Cook enthusiati-
cally added. “The car show alone took up an entire block. I think everyone who came to town (today) was impressed with the turnout and the wide range of vendors and activities.” Special thanks are extended event sponsors and to the Old Coronach Street Festival Committee: Courtney Setrum, Janel Korbo, Mike Martin, Kelsey Manske, and festival coordinator Hannah Cook.

Giselle’s Dance Studio offered classes during difficult time Giselle’s Showtime Dance recently reviewed the past year of dance at their studio, and owner Giselle Wilson felt that she learned a lot on how to be adaptable while handling the COVID-19 regulations for dance studios. “If I have learned anything from the past year it is how to be adaptable and easy going. In the past 22 years of teaching I have never experienced the challenges like I faced this past year,” said Wilson, in a year-end report provided to the Assiniboia Times. “From each new announcement to new restrictions to guidelines that we as a Dance Community had to follow to say the least … it was stressful. It brought an idea of the unknown, in a world where we have such a seasonal routine. It definitely taught me to be resilient,” added Wilson. “I am proud to say that we made it through offering a season to our Dance Families in the safest way that we could as a studio.” Wilson noted that across the Saskatchewan Dance Community, there were no outbreaks in any studios throughout the entire season. “I applaud our Dance Committee that spoke on behalf of all the Dance studios and worked closely with the BRT (Business Recovery Team) to manage what was needed for us as dance teachers to keep our doors open,” said Wilson. Those requirements included strict cleaning routines, sanitization and mask wearing. “The hardest was not embracing our students. For anyone that has taken a Dance Class knows by touch is how many teachers teach. We correct by physical touch and reward our students with hugs and high fives, which was all not possible. So we tried our best offering lots of air high fives.” “Many of our Dancers also faced challenges like having to be masked, social dis’dance’ing from each other, and this made things hard as dance is about connection and social interaction as well as learning with hands-on teaching.”
Dance Education Examinations were offered to full-time dancers in both ADAPT jazz and tap, and RAD ballet. Exams were taken virtually and each dancer at Giselle’s Dance Studio was very successful. “As a studio we were able to coordinate a Videography day. Videographers came down from Saskatoon and video taped each choreographed routine. We used the videos for three Virtual Dance Competitions. Dance City Promo, Candance and Dance Nation were the Virtual Events we attended,” said Wilson. “GSD Studio was also able to offer a digital copy of the YES (year end show) for our families. Now this is definitely not the same as our yearend event, but we were just happy to have the dancers on stage as this hasn’t happened since May of 2019.” Graduating from Giselle’s Dance Studio this year were Hayley Mooney of Bengough and Lorenne Rutko of Mossbank. “Both dancers have been dancing with me since they were three-years-old. These girls are part of my family along with their moms. You build such a bond with these people after 15 years of dance,” said Wilson. There was also six most improved awards presented to: Jada Nesvold, Khanesia Warken, Haylie Peterson, Kaelyn Nelson, Hope Olson and, Andie Peterson. “These Dancers have shown a great improvement in their dance training as well as their hard work in class and their studio rap-
port with other dancers,” said Wilson. The acro program also had a success during the season, when Michaela Bumbac was able to land an ariel. Giselle’s Dance Studio also had some really

great results in their competitions this season. The teachers at Giselle’s Dance Studio are excited for a new season of dance, as currently there are no COVID-19 restrictions in place. They will still be fol-
lowing a strict cleaning regime, but their dancers will no longer be masked unless it’s a personal choice. New classes being offered by the studio include a Fine Arts Club for ages two-and-a-half to five years
