The Editor:
As a resident of Estevan I was so proud of my fellow citizens for the great job they all did in hosting the Summer Games.
I talked to a lot of athletes, parents and coaches from out-of-town and received a lot of praise for many areas including the facilities, housing, transportation, food, helpfulness and friendliness.
There were very few complaints that I heard.
Although most of my time was spent at baseball and softball, I heard lots of good things about the other venues as well.
I know the tremendous number of hours that were spent at these two facilities and I imagine the same took place at the other sports centres as well.
Congratulations to all of the organizers from the co-chairs through the sports chairs down to all the volunteers.
I also must include the opening and closing ceremonies. You all deserve a big pat on the back.
With a successful Western Canada Cup earlier this year, Estevan proves it can rank with the best in hosting major events.
