Batter up and plan to join us tomorrow, Thursday, June 19, to attend the City of Saskatoon’s 49^th Annual Civic Pancake Breakfast. 
Held rain or shine, help us kick off the start of summer with this much-loved event that brings our community together!

Plan to attend, all proceeds from the breakfast will again be donated to our charity partner, United Way Saskatoon & Area:

Thursday, June 19, 2025

7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

Outdoors beside Civic Square at 23^rd Street and 4^th Avenue

$8 gets you delicious pancakes with topping choices, sausages, coffee, juice

Cash or debit accepted

And, at a time when kindness and community momentum is needed more than ever, we again offer Act of Kindness Breakfast tickets for purchase. Pay it forward and consider purchasing an extra $8 breakfast ticket for someone who would appreciate one on June 19. Unused breakfast tickets posted to the Act of Kindness Ticket Board will be donated back to United Way Saskatoon & Area!

Enjoy the wide variety of diverse musical performers, dancers and entertainment on our community stage, be sure to check out the vehicle displays and visit the information booths. Local celebrity pancake flippers will serve up delicious pancakes, and as always, the popular relay race will be fun to watch!

The City is proud to donate all proceeds from the annual pancake breakfast to United Way Saskatoon & Area, to help make our community better for everyone.

The 49^th Annual Civic Pancake Breakfast fundraiser is made possible through the generous support of our valued sponsors.

Saskatoon Transit is warning residents of a “Go-Pass Smart Card” fare scam on social media and through a fraudulent website.

A fraudulent social media account is advertising a scam offer for a $4.00 Go-Pass that supposedly provides six months of unlimited travel. Additionally, a linked website falsely impersonates as an official Saskatoon Transit page. This deceptive tactic seeks to mislead individuals into purchasing a fake pass and sharing their personal information.

To find the complete list of fare prices for Saskatoon Transit, visit: saskatoontransit.ca/fares-passes.

How to identify a potential scam:

• The scam offers seem too good to be true.
• The website may not be an official webpage or social media account page.
• Requests for personal or financial information are a red flag.

Helpful reminders to help protect residents from potential scammers:

• The City never requests or collects credit card, bank accounts or any sort of personal information from customers via phone, text, social media, or email.
• Never give out your personal or banking information, or credit card number over the phone, by text, on social media, by email, or on a non-trusted website. It is a best practice to block suspicious phone numbers, email addresses or social media accounts and delete them after reporting.
• Do not click on suspicious web links.
• Always verify information from trusted sources:
  • Official website:
    • saskatoon.ca
    • saskatoontransit.ca or transit.saskatoon.ca
  • Social media channels:
    • @cityofsaskatoon
    • @stoontransit

Scammers typically use the information gathered to get money or commit identity theft.

Residents should contact their bank if they have become a victim of fraud and report these types of phone or online scams to Saskatoon Police Service at saskatoonpolice.ca/onlinereporting/fraud/ or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, 1-888-495-8501.

Concerned residents may also call the City of Saskatoon to speak with a Customer Service Representative at 306-975-2400.

Cumberland Avenue will be closed at 14th Street starting Wednesday, June 18, at 7:00 a.m. for sewer work and resurfacing. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the work zone. This project is expected to take four weeks to complete, weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Saskatoon Transit may be affected by these detours. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.
