This completely FREE 6-hour Mature Driver Refresher Course is strictly informational and offered in a positive, open class environment. Participant driver’s licenses are not affected and there are no required examinations.

The Mature Driver Refresher Course helps reinforce safe driving habits. It will increase your confidence when navigating Saskatchewan’s increasing city and highway traffic. It provides insight into how to adapt your driving habits based on the physical changes your body goes through as it matures.

Some of the topics discussed in the course are:

• Normal driving situations such as intersections, following distance and maintaining an open “gate” around your vehicle.
• Hazardous driving environments such as skids, the head-on collision, hydroplaning, how to protect yourself while driving.
• Traffic guidance such as sign recognition and pavement markings.
• Review of safety devices such as seat belts and air bags.
• Medication awareness, vision and effective use of your eyes.

If these positions are not filled, there will not be an outdoor soccer season in Balgonie.

The Soccer Board is in dire need of board members.

Current vacant positions are:

• President

• Secretary
• Inter-zone Soccer Representative

Without the filling of these positions the soccer committee will no longer be able to operate.

We don’t want to see Balgonie soccer come to an end in our community, so we need your help. The Board meets approximately only once a month, and every other year we host the tournament for the region.
