The Yorkton Wildlife Federation held its annual awards on Saturday, as well as holding the traditional fundraiser to assist in the organizations operations. MC Warren Thomson provided a brief overview of the various developments within the chapter as well as provincial regulatory updates. After a recap of various species under observation as well as tagging for conservation, the awards kicked off.

Kelly Schuster won in the category of typical whitetail deer, while Aron Hershmiller won the category of non typical whitetail deer.
Barry Thies won in the category for moose, Aron Hershmiller for Antelope while Brad Kulcsar took the award home for typical elk.
For bears, Jason Uhryn took the award for bear, while Roseileen Nielsen again dominated the big game category for Ladies Big Game bear. Carson Neilsen won for archery bear, as a sample of some of the award categories that evening.
