Wilkie hoping for success in Kraft Hockeyville challenge
Wilkie residents will be facing off with their competitors once again this year as they get ready to participate in the Kraft Hockeyville challenge.
Helen Urlacher, who is spearheading the local effort with Kathy Heilman, said Wilkie’s nomination has been accepted to enter into the competition.
Urlacher said nominations opened Jan. 1, so Wilkie still has another 20-some days to get more nominations.
“We’re going to go for it,” Urlacher said. “We want the $250,000, and we want to be the first Saskatchewan town to win Hockeyville. There’s never been a Saskatchewan winner before.”
