A fundraising banquet will be held by the Weyburn-Big Muddy New Democrat Party on Thursday, March 17.
The banquet will be held at the Weyburn Royal Canadian Legion, with cocktails at 5:30 p.m., and supper at 6 p.m. Tickets cost $50 and can be purchased from Ron Wormsbecker, Mark Jeworski, Wanda Bartlett, Walter Paxman or Vera Knox.
The evening will feature a performance from the STARS Show choir, plus guest speakers Erin Weir, MP for Regina-Lewvan, and Mark Jeworski, the Weyburn-Big Muddy NDP candidate for the upcoming provincial election.
The goal of the banquet is to fund aise for the election campaign, which will start by or before March 9. The general election is Monday, April 4.
Jeworski studied heavy-duty mechanics at Olds College. He is active with his union, the United Mine Workers of America.
“I’m pleased to join Cam Broten’s team and I’m going to work hard to earn the trust of the people of this constituency,” said Jeworski. “I appreciate Cam’s vision of continuing to develop all of our natural resources, while also diversifying our economy so we can create loads of good, mortgage-paying jobs and ensure that our prosperity will last for the long term. I also really appreciate his commitment to ensure that our province’s prosperity actually benefits people. That’s the kind of leadership Saskatchewan needs right now.”
Mark and his wife Penny live in Halbrite and have three children, Mackenzie, Kaleb and Noah.
“After a decade of record revenues, we should all be seeing a lot more of the benefits, but we’re not. So, like families all over Saskatchewan, families in this constituency are growing increasingly tired of being taken for granted by the Sask. Party and they want an MLA that is in touch with what really matters to people in this region,” said NDP Leader Cam Broten.
“Mark Jeworski is a hard-working guy who cares about his neighbours and people throughout this constituency. I’m confident he’ll work hard to deliver results for Weyburn-Big Muddy families.”
