President’s Message – August 2026
As we move through another busy and exciting summer in Weyburn, I would like to take a moment to thank our Chamber members, volunteers, sponsors, and community partners for their continued support and engagement. The strength of our business community comes from the connections we build and the willingness of local businesses and organizations to work together to support growth and opportunity in our region.
The past few months have been filled with successful events, meaningful conversations, and new opportunities to strengthen relationships within our business community. It is always inspiring to see the collaboration, innovation, and resilience demonstrated by Chamber members across all sectors.
We are also excited to celebrate the continued growth of our local business community. On Thursday, August 27, please join us for the Grand Opening Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Domino’s Pizza Weyburn, located at 112 Railway Avenue. The ribbon cutting will take place at 11:00 a.m., and the celebration will include giveaways, special promotions, and a charitable initiative supporting a local cause. We encourage members and community members alike to stop by and help welcome one of Weyburn’s newest businesses.
Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce a new workshop opportunity on September 14. Join BelleMark Brand’s Brittany Fisher for an engaging and hands-on workshop focused on Canva, one of today’s most popular design and marketing tools. Whether you’re looking to create professional marketing materials, improve your social media presence, or strengthen your brand, this workshop will provide practical skills and valuable insights to help you elevate your business communications.
As we continue into the fall, we are also preparing for one of our most anticipated events of the year, the Behind the Badge Luncheon on September 15. This unique event provides an opportunity to hear directly from local law enforcement, gain insight into community safety initiatives, and engage in meaningful discussion about issues that impact both businesses and residents.
Registration is now open, and we encourage members to secure their spot early. Events like these help foster understanding, build connections, and strengthen the relationships that contribute to a thriving community.
Thank you for your continued involvement in the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce. We look forward to connecting with you at upcoming events and continuing to support the success of our members.
Wishing you a productive and successful remainder of the summer.
Sincerely,
Jordan Szczecinski
President, Weyburn Chamber of Commerce
President’s Message – July 2026
As we move into the heart of summer, July brings a renewed sense of energy and connection across our community. This season is a wonderful reminder of the vibrancy of Weyburn—where businesses, families, and local organizations come together to celebrate, collaborate, and grow.
One of the highlights ahead is our Summer Parade on July 2nd. This annual tradition is not only a celebration of community spirit, but also an important showcase of our local businesses. From creative floats to team participation, the parade highlights the diversity and strength of our business community while helping to drive valuable traffic into our downtown core. It’s a fantastic opportunity to support local, connect with customers, and bring energy into the heart of Weyburn. I encourage everyone to attend, participate, and show your support for this lively event.
Looking ahead, we are excited to host our Linked on the Links Golf Tournament on August 7th. This event continues to be a strong favourite, providing a relaxed and enjoyable setting for networking and relationship-building. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just coming out to connect, this tournament is open to both members and non-members, and we look forward to welcoming a great turnout.
Please also mark your calendars for our first annual Behind the Badge Luncheon on September 15th. This meaningful event offers a valuable opportunity to engage with and recognize the individuals who help keep our community safe.
As we move through the summer, our team is actively working on developing our fall programming and workshops. We want to ensure these initiatives bring real value to our members, and we would genuinely welcome your input. If there are topics, skills, or sessions that would benefit your business, please don’t hesitate to share your ideas with us.
As always, I want to thank our members for their ongoing support and commitment to strengthening our local business community. Your engagement is what drives the Chamber forward and ensures we continue to advocate, connect, and provide value for businesses across Weyburn.
Wishing you all a safe, productive, and enjoyable summer.
Warm regards,

President’s Message – June 2026
June has been a month of progress and partnership for the Weyburn business community. Earlier this month, the Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Show once again demonstrated the strength and innovation of our regional energy sector. The event brought together industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and community members, creating valuable opportunities for collaboration and investment. Thank you to everyone who contributed to its success — your efforts continue to elevate Weyburn on both the provincial and national stage.
As we transition into the summer season, the Chamber is pleased to open registration for two major upcoming events. The July 2nd Chamber Summer Parade invites businesses, community groups, and families to participate in one of Weyburn’s most cherished traditions. This event is a powerful way to showcase local pride, creativity, and the spirit that defines our community.
Looking ahead to August, the Linked on the Links Golf Tournament returns on August 7th. This tournament remains one of our premier networking opportunities, bringing together professionals from across sectors to build relationships, exchange ideas, and strengthen our business ecosystem. We encourage members to register early, as this event consistently fills quickly.
Summer is also an important time to support our local businesses. Whether it’s shopping at independent retailers, dining at local restaurants, or taking part in community events, every choice we make has a meaningful impact. Our businesses work hard year‑round, and the summer months offer a valuable opportunity to help them thrive. I encourage all members to explore what Weyburn has to offer — discover a new shop, revisit a favourite spot, or recommend a local service to a friend or visitor. Together, we can ensure that our business community remains vibrant and resilient.
Thank you for your continued support of the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce. Your engagement strengthens our collective voice and helps shape a prosperous future for our region. I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events and throughout the community this summer.
Sincerely,
Jordan Szczecinski

President’s Message – April 2026
Dear Weyburn Chamber Members,
First, I want to take a moment to thank our outgoing President and Board. Leadership at the Chamber is a volunteer commitment, and the time, energy, and care that go into this role often happen quietly and behind the scenes. On behalf of our members and our community, thank you for your dedication, your steady leadership, and for leaving the Chamber in a strong position for the year ahead.
I am honoured and grateful to serve as the incoming President of the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce.
Weyburn has always been a community built on resilience, innovation, and people who show up for one another. Our businesses—large and small—are the heartbeat of this city. They sponsor our teams, support our events, employ our neighbours, and reinvest in the community we all call home. The Chamber plays a vital role in bringing these voices together, advocating on behalf of business, and helping create the conditions for our local economy to thrive.
As I step into this role, my commitment is simple: to listen, to represent, and to help move our business community forward—together.
Looking ahead, I see three key areas where the Chamber can continue to add real value.
First, connection. One of the Chamber’s greatest strengths is its ability to bring people together—whether through networking events, learning opportunities, or simply creating space for meaningful conversations. Strong relationships are the foundation of strong businesses, and we will continue to focus on building connections across industries and generations.
Second, advocacy. Our members face real and evolving challenges, including labour shortages, rising costs, and ongoing economic uncertainty. The Chamber has an important role to play in ensuring the voice of business is heard at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels. We will continue to advocate clearly, respectfully, and constructively on behalf of our members.
Third, relevance. The needs of businesses are changing, and the Chamber must continue to evolve alongside them. That means remaining responsive, open to new ideas, and focused on delivering programming and services that truly matter to our members.
None of this happens alone.
I am incredibly fortunate to work alongside a committed Board of Directors and a dedicated Chamber team who care deeply about this organization and this community. I am also grateful to our sponsors, partners, and members—your support is what allows the Chamber to do the work it does.
To our business owners and leaders: thank you for taking the risks, putting in the long hours, and believing in Weyburn. Your success strengthens our entire community.
I am excited about the year ahead and optimistic about what we can accomplish together.
Thank you again for your trust, your support, and for being part of such a strong and vibrant business community. I am proud to serve as your incoming President and look forward to working with all of you.
Sincerely,
Jordan Szczecinski
President
Weyburn Chamber of Commerce
