Each of you is a light!

And this place is a lighthouse.

Hello Suzanne

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking care of my dad.

He had nothing but good things to say about you and your kindness.

You supported him unconditionally and I truly believe that if he were still here, he would continue on his road to recovery with your helping hand.

I had faith in him to fight his demons and win, if he had more time on this earth, he would have.

Thank You

WISSA 2001 - The WORLD Ice and Snow Sailing Championships were held at Cedar Lodge where 11 countries brought entries - it was an incredible week and we were thrilled to have been selected from all of the choices that could have been made from around the world. We gave each and every entrant and their family a good dose of Prairie Hospitality and we know they went home with a new understanding of our Canadian hearts.

Since opening its doors in 1997, Cedar Lodge has been host to more than three thousand events of the greatest variety including conventions, seminars, weddings, banquets, baptisms, family reunions, government
retreats, health and wellness sessions and so much more. Our business continued to grow steadily with no advertising. Word of mouth of the excellence of service and cuisine has brought us bookings years in advance.

Hosting both national and international events Cedar Lodge has given us the privilege of catering to people from 23 countries, WISSA being just one of those events.

Some of the Rave Reviews from WISSA looked like this:

“I have traveled all over the world and have found nothing to compare to the hospitality, the food and the service at Cedar Lodge.”

“I wish we had something like this in OUR province.”

“I came here stressed out and fed up! You have cheered my heart and made me able to face life again.”

“I came here skinny and I go home fat … but happy.”

“We WILL be back!”

“… A little piece of heaven.”

A lady visiting from EUROPE during WISSA wrote to us on her return:
“If there is a heaven on earth, then Cedar Lodge has got to be it!”

VERY QUIET!
Relaxing and Peaceful.

During a week long retreat, there can be so much communication that is given through meals, attention, courtesy and kindness - at Cedar Lodge we are dedicated to providing care and concern in all that we do.

Here are some comments from one such retreat.

Thank you all for everything, your meals were all so wonderful and creative. And you made me feel very welcome and comfortable.

A million thanks to the Cedar Lodge staff and all the wonderful things you provided for us. I truly appreciated all the good things.

    JULY 15, 2007 - MARKS THE FIRST DAY OF OUR SECOND DECADE !!

AND WHAT A DECADE IT HAS BEEN !!

We have provided hospitality, service and fabulous cuisine for thousands of events, some national, some international. We have provided spectacular surroundings for weddings, wedding receptions, seminars, conferences, family reunions, high school reunions, government workshops, retreats, respite and a whole host of various adventures.

Additionally, we have served hundreds of thousands over the past more than 10 years with our food distribution program. We have served hundreds in drug and alcohol recovery inasmuch as we are a long term residential treatment facility when we are not otherwise fully booked. Individuals have come from as far west as Victoria, B.C. and from as far east as Prince Edward Island for treatment.

Our amazing staff (all volunteers) provide the warmest hospitality and service bar none. And our kitchen staff!! They are unbelievable - home cooked meals that people come back for time and time again.

We have faithful customers who book their events with us year after year and we have bookings into the year 2011. One such customer recently remarked after hosting two events every year since 1997 (our first year) - “… in ten years, you have not shirked in any area, you are just as friendly, just as efficient and the meals have not waivered, not one bit.”

We want to thank our incredible suppliers, sponsors, donors and supporters, without whom these countless individuals would not have been served with our best efforts, services and supplies.

Here are just a few of those - we are sure we will leave out some if not many.
Please forgive us if we do and email us to include you in our list.

Yellowhead Pizzas and Subs, Sobey’s (Safeway), London Drugs, Great Canadian Bagel, Great Canadian Superstore, Martin’s Produce, Star Produce, Star Egg, Family Pizza, Saskatoon Family Network Inc. to name a few.

Our volunteers - Sandra Howarth, Linda Laird, Lee Hilton, Keith Hills, Sonia Hazen, Al and Audry Wersch, Rob and Georgia Van Doornum, Jonathan Wiebe, Richard Perras, Sandie McDade, Sheldon and Lisa Dyck, Casey Stokman, Helen Kvale, Dave and Lori Washington, Colleen Troesch, Doris and Joe Rubio, Caitlyn Cassidy.

THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR SPONSORS AND SUPPORTERS, MANY OF WHOM COME OUT AND WORK WITH US SIDE BY SIDE WHILE WE CONTINUE TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY, OUR PROVINCE AND OUR NATION.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
