Northern Village of Green Lake

Green Lake is a northern municipality with approximately 500 permanent residents. We are the third oldest settlement in the province of Saskatchewan. It is a village steeped in the rich history of the Metis and First Nations people and the fur-trade that founded our nation. We obtained status as a village in 1982 under provincial legislation designating Green Lake as an Urban Municipality governed under the Northern Municipalities Act. The first Mayor and Council were elected locally in 1983 to govern the village and surrounding agriculture land. Currently we provide water and sewer services, road maintenance, recreation facilities, playgrounds and a volunteer fire brigade for village residents.

We are attending the first annual Westside Economic Development and Investment Attraction Conference being hosted here in beautiful Green Lake.
Yesterday focused on renewable energy and today on tourism development.

BE PREPARED DURING FIRE SEASON:
PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NO DANGER PRESENT
FOR GREEN LAKE AT THIS TIME THIS IS FOR
INFORMATION ONLY

It’s Wildfire Season: Be Prepared
Have things ready just in case!
List of Things to Take for Evacuation:
Easy-to-carry shoulder bag Comfort items (a toy for your child, cards, a book, etc.)
Prescriptions for at least five days Drinking water for each person for the trip (about one litre)
A change of clothing (plus a sweater or jacket) Healthy food snack for the trip (foods that won’t spoil)
Basic toiletry items (toothbrush, toothpaste) Small amount of cash, as well as your debit and credit card
Small flashlight with extra batteries Small radio (battery operated)
Eyeglasses, Hearing Aids, CPAP Machine, etc. Items for infants (formula, baby food, diapers) for the trip
Photocopy of important documents (photo
identification, health card, Treaty card,
list of medication, insurance information,
list of emergency contacts)
List other things you want to remember to bring:
If planning to use your own vehicle for transportation during an evacuation:
€ Keep your vehicle fairly full of gas during the fire season.
€ Keep a roadside emergency kit in your vehicle (for example: booster cables, road markers, high visibility
vest, first aid kit, flashlight) and make sure your spare tire is in good condition.
€ Register with the evacuation registration centre, even if you don’t need transportation and are not needing to
stay at a shelter.
€ Take food for a healthy snack along with you for the road (select foods that won’t spoil).
€ Follow instructions on the safe routes and timing for departure.
€ Decide what to do with your pets, as shelters and many hotels will not allow pets. Perhaps identify in
advance pet-friendly hotels or pet boarding facilities (you’ll need to take your pet’s vaccination papers).
Other things to think about during forest fire season:
€ Keep your cellphone charged, and keep an extra flashlight and radio batteries on hand.
€ Keep some cash on hand.
€ Have an electrostatic or HEPA filter air cleaner to use in a small room in your house.
€ Have a bag packed ready for evacuation if a forest fire threatens.
€ Have a jug or container of drinking water in your house (about four litres per person in the house).
€ Have a box of non-perishable foods stored in a cupboard for emergency use (rough guideline – two days of
food for the number of people in your home).
€ Review family plan in case there is an evacuation – share each other’s cellphone numbers.
€ For each family member with chronic illnesses requiring special care: Ask your doctor or nurse for a letter
documenting your condition, your medications and health-care provider contact information, which could be
used to give to health-care providers at evacuation centres or clinics / hospitals in other communities.
In the event of an evacuation:
€ Plan for pets: Put a note on your door about your pets (number and type of pets, where they are and other
info, such as food or safety. Also include your cellphone number or another way to contact you).
€ Foods in refrigerator: If you have time, consider what foods in your refrigerator could be put in the freezer. ... See MoreSee Less
