Time doesn’t stand still. The years come and go and again we at the Moose Jaw Express and MooseJawToday.com bring you our annual offering of this year’s Explore Moose Jaw 2022-23. The magazine is a special publication for those within our community, as well as visitors, to encourage people to get out and experience all there is to see and do within our region.
Moose Jaw is steeped in historic charm and there’s lots going-on for people of all ages. Sometimes exploring one’s own community and area can open our eyes to the jewel of a province we live in and the allure it has to bring visitors back time and time again. Although we all marvel at the grandeur of the mountains, the beauty here on the prairies is breathtaking…the beautiful fields of clover, canola and flax during the growing season create a magnificent vista against our living skies, and the magnificent juxtaposition of the golden wheat fields during fall harvest positioned against a harvest moon create beauty beyond belief. As spring is a time of renewal, winter holds a new focus on life and the special activities of that season. Experience all this and more in Moose Jaw and area!
But again I must say, the people here on the prairies and right here in Moose Jaw are truly the salt of the earth and our greatest resource. I am so proud of their enduring optimism and the pride they hold in our province’s heritage as a welcoming and all-inclusive province. With happy hearts, we are willing to embrace anyone who is willing to embrace us.
I am hoping that through these pages, you will find jewels to visit that will create marvelous memories to remember. Hope to see you soon!
Joan Ritchie
