University of Regina President and Vice-Chancellor Dr. Vianne Timmons presented the Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club with the annual President’s Community Award to acknowledge the organization’s longstanding commitment to the province.

“For more than 100 years, the Roughriders have been there for our province both on and off the field,” says Timmons. “From supporting amateur sport in Saskatchewan, to promoting provincial health-related initiatives such as the “Bleed Green” campaign with Canadian Blood Services, to building community through partnerships with the Red Cross and Mamaweyatitan Community Centre, the Roughriders continue to contribute in so many ways to the life of our province.”
