Happy International Woman’s Day.

Here is some beautiful Turkish Limestone being laid at River Landing in Saskatoon by Brxton Masonry.

With Covid Numbers and Restrictions on the Rise we had to change the way we provide training to our membership. Our number one priority is the safety of our members. We want to be able to provide training to our members as safely as possible, that way we can continue to provide them with their safety certificates to keep them employable through these unprecedented times. We also want to make sure abide by all provincial guidelines that are put in place. With winter months coming it is a good time to make sure all your safety certificates are up to date. If you are unsure, contact the office 306-359-6356 or Derek on his cell 306-515-4472 to see when they expire.
