The annual Athabasca Student Christmas Supper was held on December 13th in Prince Albert at the Venice House restaurant. An annual tradition for many years, each year Athabasca Basin Development buys dinner for Athabasca students and their families who are attending high school or post-secondary school in Prince Albert or Saskatoon. The event recognizes the achievements and challenges faced by students being educated outside the region. This year, 35 students attended the supper, for a total of 65 people. The event was organized by Points Athabasca, with door prizes and gifts donated by Points Athabasca, Athabasca Basin Development, West Wind Aviation, Flyer Electric, Team Drilling, Tru-North RV, Auto and Marine, Athabasca Basin Security, Double Diamond Structures and Hands On Outreach and Development. Food that was left over found its way to the homeless and the needy in Prince Albert.
