As part of the City's Extreme Heat Response, all spray pads hours have been extended to 10:00 p.m. until Thursday, July 11.  Spray pads are open daily at 10:00 a.m. Visit saskatoon.ca/spraypads for a list of spray pad locations. 

There are over 60 locations across Saskatoon to cool off and take a break from the heat. View the list of Cool Down Locations to find a cooling location near you.

In anticipation of higher than normal temperatures this week, combined with the Air Quality Index, the Saskatoon Emergency Management Organization (EMO) will activate the Saskatoon Extreme Heat Emergency Response Plan from Monday, July 8 to Thursday, July 11 to support residents in Saskatoon, especially those vulnerable to the heat.

The Saskatoon Extreme Heat Emergency Response Plan is a coordinated response that provides residents with access to cooling locations, outreach services, wellness checks and water distribution during extreme heat. Individuals and families experiencing distress from the heat can visit any of the designated cool-down locations throughout the city. Partner organizations will also distribute water to vulnerable residents and have access to misting tents to provide another way to cool down.

Extreme Heat can cause serious negative health impacts ranging from dehydration and heat exhaustion to heat stroke and potentially death. Extreme heat can be especially dangerous for individuals who live in a residence without air conditioning or a way to cool the home, are older adults, and who also have re-existing health conditions. Residents can help those most vulnerable to this extreme and prolonged heat by checking on family, friends and neighbours, sharing the list of cool-down locations and by alerting emergency services if they see someone in distress due to the extreme heat.

In an emergency, call 911 immediately.

Other things to consider during days of extreme heat: 

River Safety

Although the South Saskatchewan River may provide a tempting option to cool down on hot days, EMO reminds residents that the river is unpredictable and swimming in the river is prohibited. The river has many hazards including changing currents and an unstable bottom.

Pet Wellness

On warm summer days, it’s important to keep your pets safe and comfortable. Considerations include:

• Ensuring your pet has plenty of fresh water to drink
• Monitoring your pet for signs of heat stress such as rapid panting
• Never leaving pets in parked cars for any amount of time
• Offering your pet a means to cool down such as a wading pool or damp towel

For more information on how to keep your pet safe this summer, contact your local veterinarian.

Working Safe

As the humidex rises, those who work outdoors are encouraged to take necessary actions including:

• Drink extra water,
• Increase breaks out of the sun
• Modify work duties to prevent heat illness

For safety tips and guidelines for employees working in hot conditions, visit the Government of Saskatchewan’s Working Outdoors page.

Transit Safe Bus Program

As always, Saskatoon Transit offers the Safe Bus Program designed to assist anyone, of any age, that needs immediate shelter or needs to contact emergency services. If you need help, simply and safely flag down a bus or go to a parked bus. Transit operators can contact emergency services directly through the on-bus radio system and will give the person in need a safe place to wait.

Smart Yard and Garden Watering

During heat waves, there is increased water usage. The City encourages residents to be water wise by watering your lawn and trees early in the morning and skip windy days to minimize evaporation. Smart watering helps the environment and can save you money during hot summer months. Follow these quick lawn care tips to be more efficient with your water and learn more ways to be water wise.

The City is seeking a naming rights partner that will continue to build upon the vision and success of the Shaw Centre (leisure facility) now and into the future.

The leisure facility originally opened in 2009 with a vision to create a destination recreational facility built on partnerships and community values offering programs, activities and services in a diverse and inclusive setting. In the past 15 years, the leisure facility has not only lived up to, but exceeded the original vision.

Interested parties can review the Leisure Facility Naming Rights Opportunity Request For Proposals information available online through Biddingo. The submission deadline is Friday, July 19, 2024, at 2:00 p.m.

The facility’s original Naming and Promotional Benefits Agreement - which named the facility Shaw Centre - expired on March 31, 2024. City Council has provided approval to pursue a new naming rights agreement for the facility.

In exchange for an organization’s cash investment, the City will grant the organization recognition through naming rights of the facility and marketing opportunities.

The agreement will provide a number of benefits, at minimum:

• Chosen name and/or logo in a prominent location(s) on the exterior and interiorof the facility;
• Naming rights recognition on all marketing materials, including website, exterior signage, etc. related to the facility; and
• Additional opportunities for signage, marketing, activation, and business solutions are negotiable.

The facility is uniquely integrated between two high schools, Tommy Douglas Collegiate and Bethlehem Catholic High School and is internationally recognized as a state-of-the-art recreational facility. The facility has hosted a variety of elite aquatics events and activities in all aquatic disciplines (water polo, speed swimming, artistic swimming, diving). In the last 10 years, the facility has hosted two International Competitions, 18 National Competitions and 23 Western Canadian Championships.
