Staff and residents at the Moose Mountain Lodge were thoroughly entertained last week by local musician Rein Dela Pena.
The 13-year-old singer lives in Langbank and travels to various events with her parents Chris and Gem.
On this day, she entertained the audience with Christmas carols and upbeat holiday songs. Rein is a rising young star who is quickly making a name for herself. This past summer, she sang O Canada at two Saskatchewan Roughrider home games and at the Moose Mountain Rodeo held in Kennedy.
She will be performing at Telemiracle 47 which is being held in Saskatoon February 23rd and 24th.
This family moved from the Philippines seven years ago. On Dec. 14, they officially and proudly became Canadian citizens.
Said Gem: “We are so very happy to be living in Canada and appreciate every opportunity that have been given to us. Ever since she was a little girl, Rein has wanted to become a professional singer. Her dad and I will be helping her along every step of the way. We sincerely hope that her dream comes true.”
Recently, Rein has performed at many local functions including churches, nursing homes and various community events, including a supper and comedy night. Rein has bookings well into 2023. Although only 13 years old, she has her own Facebook musician’s page, which is simply called REIN.
