The Estevan Police Association (EPA) is bringing a family variety night to Estevan, and there will be a ticket sponsorship campaign as part of the endeavour.
EPA president Evan Handley said Coho Productions out of Regina will be bringing the variety night to Estevan.聽
鈥淭hey have a variety show that they have been running across the province for a number of years,鈥� said Handley.
This is the first time the EPA has brought the variety show to Estevan. It was a fixture in the Energy City at one time, but it has been several years since it appeared here. The Weyburn Police Association has been bringing it to Weyburn for a number of
years, and Handley said it has been a really good success in that city.聽
The variety night will be on Feb. 4, 2016, at the Estevan Comprehensive School (ECS). A performer has yet to be confirmed.
鈥淭hey have magic,鈥� said Handley. 鈥淭hey have some other different acts that they put on. They say it鈥檚 good wholesome family fun.鈥�
The ticket sponsorship campaign is already underway. Organizers of the event will be contacting local businesses and individuals to purchase tickets. Those tickets will then be directed towards families who wouldn鈥檛 be able to afford to go to the show.
Tickets will also be available at the Estevan Police Service building, and at ECS the night of the event.
All the money raised will be donated to the Estevan Family Resource Centre.
鈥淭he Estevan Police Association is 100 per cent behind this,鈥� said Handley. 鈥淲e want to make this a successful night and we want to make it a fun night for everybody. Anybody that can help out, we would greatly appreciate it.鈥�
Handley said this is an event the EPA would like to have in Estevan every year. It鈥檚 a show that people of all ages can enjoy, because it offers a lot for adults and children. 聽
