Looking ahead to the coming year, I'm thrilled to announce that our much-anticipated conference dates for 2024 have been set.
It brings me great pride to announce the news of an incredible, Saskatchewan-raised, keynote speaker who will share his insights at our event.
In the midst of our excitement for the upcoming event, we also take a moment to reflect on a sombre note within our community. We are saddened to acknowledge the loss of a valued member of our association, Mervin Lathlin. Our deepest condolences go out to his family during the holiday season. Mervin's legacy will continue to inspire us as we move forward together.
As we gather with loved ones, let's cherish the moments of togetherness and reflect on the meaningful strides we've made in the collective journey of our association in 2023. May this festive season bring you warmth, happiness, and a renewed sense of purpose.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a prosperous New Year.
Rebecca Zagozewski

A Loss to our Industry, a Community, and a Family
|
|
|
It is with heavy hearts that we acknowledge the passing of one of our members, Mervin Lathlin of Shoal Lake First Nation. Mervin's dedication to ensuring excellent water for his community was unparalleled. He led the way at the Shoal Lake Water Treatment Plant alongside his brother, Victor, with unwavering commitment. Their efforts secured second place for the Best-Tasting Water on a First Nation at the Saskatchewan First Nations Water Association Conference in September —a testament to his devotion.
His passion for life extended beyond work; Mervin enjoyed camping, fishing, and golf tournaments with loved ones. His joy came from his love for gospel music and treasured road trips with family and friends.
Mervin's legacy of dedication and service in water management will forever inspire us. Rest peacefully, Mervin, your legacy remains.
