One local southeast business was happy to contribute to the 2018 SaskTel Tankard with a cheque for $1,000. 

"Carson Safety Services is a really big believer in the community," shared Sales Manager, Preston Majeran, "and giving back to the community. One of our big things is teaching the community about different sports and we saw an opportunity to give back to the community and bring curling to southeast Saskatchewan and show everyone what it's like."

As well, it is a good chance to show off what Estevan has to offer.

"Bringing more business in for the local businesses, the restaurants, the hotels, it's a great opportunity for Estevan."

He added that he is also looking forward to the high level of curling. 

"I enjoy watching curling so I'll definitely be here."

Affinity Place will host the 2018 SaskTel Tankard from January 31st to February 4th.
